Very Smart Men a Turn Off?

I've had a couple conversations recently with some very smart men, smart in a sense of they are mature, intelligent, ambitious men who are trying to build some warren buffet-esque empires.

A few weeks back one of these single men briefly mentioned to me that they really liked someone but that the woman didn't feel "good enough" to be with him.

Then I was having a conversation more recently with someone who was feeling slightly tired of dating and meeting women as he had been told on a recent occasion by the woman he was dating that she didn't feel good enough to be with him.

Hmmm...

Now after encouraging my friend (you know chin up, stay positive - all the good uplifting talk lol), I did wonder if this is some sort of line that gets banded around when a woman maybe isn't interested in being in a relationship with a guy kind of like that whole“ its not you, its me" type thing.

But its not one of those lines I've used myself when I'm not interested in forming a relationship.


Then on the same day one of my fb friends asked could you be with a guy who was not as smart as you on his FB status, and the majority of the women who were quick to respond very passionately responded saying "NO" in fact the majority of them saying "hell no!"

So I'm wondering who are these women turning down these lovely guys due to not feeling good enough about themselves?

And how good about yourself do you have to feel to want to be with a very smart man?

I'm slightly flummoxed by this as I love men who are intelligent, mature and ambitious.

The more intelligent, mature (in actions not in looks I'm not interested in anyone over 60 just yet I jest! Lol!) And ambitious the better.

I mean what are you going to do with an immature, unintelligent, going nowhere partner
