First of I would like to say your story is an interesting read . Generally I just lurk here to get some input from the other side of the fence . But i felt compelled to respond for several reasons . First of you are lot like one of my friends I am taking all you have said at face valueHighly successful , highly intelligent , majored in a STEM field and extremely calculating . Also we are all Dutch 😉 . Now I am a man and so is he so this might not be as applicable to you as it is to him . FirstRemember your achievements are not the end all be all of your person . Or that of others . Now don ' t get me wrong your achievements say a lot about you and the person in front of you . But people that have achieved less academically can and will surprise you and might even surpass you on certain things maybe even challenge you . Also there is more to a person then just their paycheck or milestones . Now to the why of why I am saying this . Obviously you are invested in your achievements . The fact that you are will most likely have you talking about them maybe even a lot . This in turn will make other people feel less adequate simply because they perceive it emotionally as a devaluation of their person . And they will try and defend their self perception by trying to take you down a peg . Do not sell yourself short on people simply because they balanced their lives differently or had less capability in some areas . SecondAs for your rough childhood . As someone who has had the dubious honor of partaking of a tough past as well . Even though you are molded by your experiences they only define who you have chosen to become up until now and will only define who you will choose to be going forward if you let them . So if they have led to negative results find them and address them . Finding out how by yourself is as important as actually addressing them if you are as smart as you say you are . ThirdGathering from your post you are most likely one of only maybe 15 % of people intellectually . Which means that if you want to find someone with ballpark same smarts as you you are going to have to grind through a lot of encounters with people that don ' t match up . From experience I can tell you that sucks . But unfortunately it is the reality . Now because according to the side bar actionable advise is warranted . Here are the same things I have told my friend . 1 . Open up and give people more of a chance even if they don ' t appear to be your material at first glance . 2 . Get a feel for what you want in a man or his case a woman by going through a couple . Now I ' m not saying ride the cc but do date . 3 . Don ' t take yourself to be better then others simply because you are smarter . I myself have been outdone numerous times by people that were decidedly less capable then me intellectually . And taking yourself as better at first glance is nothing but circumspect protection of the ego . 4 . Don ' t carry your past as either a shield or an excuse . Own it and use it . 5 . Physical attraction is a must or out will fall apart later at best or have you both mildly to largely miserable at worst in the long run . I hope this helps . And I am sorry if I still broke some rules somewhere I ' ll do better on the next one if someone is kind enough to point them out .
