Swiping Right For Smarts: Intelligence in the Modern Dating Scene
Yogis!
Namaste!
It’s me, Becca Brooks, back with another post about relationships, self-love, and finding balance.
Today I want to chat about something I get asked a lot — should women consider a guy’s intelligence when dating?
My enthusiastic answer?
Absolutely!
But it’s complicated, so grab your mat and let’s flow through this together.
First, intelligence is super attractive!
A partner who’s curious, learns new things, and can have deep convos?
Sign me up!
It shows confidence and drive, which are total turn-ons.
Plus, it leads to really fun date nights like museums, lectures, even trivia with friends!
How dreamy!
But — huge but — intelligence isn’t everything.
You still need personality match, shared values, chemistry, all that good stuff.
Brains don’t guarantee happiness or compatibility.
Believe me, I’ve dated genius types who were major mismatches!
Like this one math whiz — total awkward turtle!
He was always correcting me and mansplaining things, which was a major confidence killer.
We didn’t vibe emotionally at all.
Then there was the poet who wrote me sonnets but was super insecure.
He put me on a pedestal which was sweet at first but then felt suffocating.
So my advice?
Seek balance!
Look for someone who complements you — challenges but supports you, teaches but also learns.
An intelligent partner can absolutely upgrade your life with inspiration and passion.
But don’t forget the basics of a healthy relationship, like mutual care, growth, and respect.
You deserve it all, goddess!
Both brains and heart!
Never settle!
Do the inner work, radiate self-love, and your soulmate will arrive right on time.
Namaste, and don’t forget to breathe deeply!

Love you all!
