Not be intimidated by a man smarter, hotter and more successful than me

Well really the guy that was so “intimidating” turned about to be intimidating just cuz he was kind of a boring jerk. His lack of personality made it hard to connect, therefore affecting my ability to flirt, and so his successful qualities were magnified because I felt small and unimportant next to him. I no longer believe that was my problem though – I think he just did not even remotely try to make me feel comfortable.

However I believe that the guy I went on a date with tonight is definitely more successful and smarter than I am – and I had a great time. I was completely at ease with him.

So I’m checking this off as done!

I met the most incredible man. He’s super smart (way more college degrees than me) and definitely so gorgeous I’d say he’s out of my league, and a good 10 years older than me, hence making him more successful (I’m 22, I haven’t had too much time to get to where he’s at in the working world.)

It doesn’t BOTHER me, don’t get me wrong I LOVE IT… he’s a great package. However, I find myself super intimidated and I feel like a total kid around him, like I don’t have nearly as much going for me as him.

I don’t like feeling that way because it also hinders my flirting ability (I totally choke) and I don’t act like myself because I’m so worried that he thinks I’m a retard.

I’m done with younger guys, so older guys are my only option. And heck yah I want a successful smart man (preferably one who makes money for it haha) and he will definitely be hott. So yah… i need to get over this!! :-P
