Education

Somehow I attract smart women. I, myself, have no more education after grade 12. Even then I wasn't a scholar. I need to educate myself somehow. Read more maybe.

Some people go to university to find themselves; I ended up losing myself. There is a lot of ego in these spaces that can lead to an inflated and/or negative self-image and unhealthy interpersonal relationships.
Personally I’d love to get to know people who have chosen to subvert the societal expectations of formal education in order to explore the things they are truly passionate about and commit to being the most authentic version of themselves.
@Smart Women ?

But what is 'smart'? There is I.Q. intelligence quotient; E.Q. emotional quotient; S.Q. spiritual or inter-dimensional quotient(s) ... and, haven't we all met some of the stupidest so-called smart people?

Life wasted

Most people waste their lives with trivial things when there is an unlimited amount of things you can learn. You don’t have to pay to learn either: just find something you are interested in and read everything you can about it. Not only does this help you expand your mind, but it’s free. The only downside to learning a lot is how you realize how stupid most people are. What they talk about. Gossip, dumb shit. They spend too much time looking in the mirror and spending thousands on fillers, going to some lame Restos, or going shopping. Especially in this town. Then we wonder why the world is on fire.
Well....

I've always said that an education doesn't make you smart; it only makes you "educated".
I met lots of people at university who weren't very smart, and many people who never had the opportunity/privilege of a post-secondary education who were super-intelligent.
I suspect you're one of those - and these women can see how intelligent you are.

However, education & intelligence don't always go together. Reading more books is always a wise idea.
