Maybe your standards are too high. Just remember, there are tons of females out there, heck...they outnumber us guys. It's just hard to find one that's got everything you require....some may be lacking in areas, but they are usually managable....Here's the list again:

Emotionally stable
Smokin' Looks
Smarts

Pick any 2....

Regular Yoda here. Good point though, it's almost always that way.

guys need to be honest with themselves
 
You sound like a desperate person. A friend of mine acts the same way, he tries so freaking hard to impress women, in the end they see him for what he is - A desperate little twirp.

Woman like a challenge, not lap dogs. They like men with balls, not guys that are needier than they are.

Step it up and do you job as a man. Make them laugh, ignore them when you can and challenge them a bit.
 
There are two ways to approach women.

a) Drool over women you'll never get and always be frustrated. You spend days/months/years in an endless and useless struggle to find a "really smokin GF" that either you'll screw up on the first date or who will just reject you from the start.

b) Become the man that the "really smokin girlfriends" want to date. You spend a little bit of time making yourself a catch and they all swoon over you. It doesn't matter if you goof up somewhere on a date because you are such a catch they overlook it. The women are confident in what they'd do to you and how the first date would go.
 
You can't get one because you're a fugly wank, deal with it.

You know that person at work that everyone makes fun of behind their backs? No? Well then you're him.
 
I disagree with everyone here. I don't think your standards are too high. I just think their standards are not low enough.

I have the exact same thing. It usually works out with the dumb, attractive girls, but they only give me one sort of satisfaction (two, actually, one being that I'll always win because of superior intellect 😛. Not that I'm smart or arrogant or anything 😛). And with the smarter and borderline-hot girls, I usually either fsck up or don't stand a chance to begin with. 🙁

Smart girls intimidate you because...

1) You're a Satanist
2) You're borderline gay
3) You have a complex and low self-esteem
4) You look like Dwight, from The Office

You are thinking about it too much, just go talk to them and ask them on dates. Who cares how the first date goes. Give it a shot and see how it works out.

You will never know for sure until you try, right?

I hope your willing to consider something other than just a "Smokin GF".... the higher the standards the longer its going to take you. There's a lot of wonderful people out there that aren't considered "hot" and I would much rather date my bf then some hottie at the gym with a six pack and no brains..

I'm sure your bf is happy to know you don't consider him hot and lowered your standards to accept him.

She didn't say that she lowered her standards for him. Heck, she didn't mention anything about her standards.

It was kind of implied, though.

Smart girls intimidate you because... Not intimidated.

1) You're a Satanist People around here are much less closeminded than you are.
2) You're borderline gay No. I like women.
3) You have a complex and low self-esteem No.
4) You look like Dwight, from The Office No, I look like this. I hate the sun.
