I've recently become a regular reader of the Huffington Post, where I stumbled upon this article: "
Why Do the Smartest Women Have the Toughest Time Dating?" by
Dr. Alex Benzer (hypnotherapist and author of
Tao of Dating,
Tao of Persuasion,
Tao of Sexual Mastery). In the article, Dr. Benzer writes about how he hates seeing all of his "smart, educated, lovely female friends remain single, alone and lonely in spite of their best efforts."
Here are the seven things Dr. Benzer believes are keeping all of us smart women from finding the right man:
- Some smart women put themselves in a no-win bind when it comes to finding an intellectual match.
- Smart women bring their inner CEO to the date.
- Smart women don't make love a top priority.
- Smart women mistake a person for real fulfillment.
- Smart women overthink it.
- Smart women underplay their feminine charms.
- Smart women are waiting for love to show up versus showing up as love.
I'm not sure that I agree with Dr. Benzer on most of these points, though I know #5 will always be true for me. I'm an expert overanalyzer.
Read the article and tell me what you think. Do agree with him on any of these. Disagree? Have something to add to the list?
