It is true, sad to say, that there are a lot of young men who are intimidated by intelligence in a woman. Or power. Or craziness. Intensity. They may not have enough experience or desire to deal with someone who is high maintenance. They just want someone simple who will be their “little woman.”
These guys miss out on a lot, but then, maybe they can’t handle it. So the guys who are intimidated by you may be the ones you would ultimately find uninteresting.
Sometimes men are also intimidated by beauty. They may not feel they deserve to be with a beautiful woman, or that there will be so much competition, they’ll never keep a beautiful woman.
Obviously, judging by comments above, men can be intimidated by craziness. Most people don’t understand it and have no clue where it’s coming from, so they can’t predict you, and they don’t know how to relate to you. Personally, I find craziness attractive, but then, I’m already crazy, so I know what’s going on.
I don’t think it matters what kind of girls men find intimidating. You wouldn’t want any of them, anyway, and I hope you are certainly not thinking you need to change yourself in order to find a guy. You’ll never be happy if you try to be what you think someone wants. It isn’t worth it just for a guy. You want to continue to be yourself. Someone will come along eventually. Who knows? Maybe they have already come along and you just don’t know it?
