I enjoyed reading this and I agree with almost everything you wrote here. They’re true.

However, there are more truths.

While yes, indeed, many men find intelligent and independent women intimidating, but the truth is, not every man.

And I’ve learned something in my interaction with these intelligent and independent women.
Which most people don’t talk about. And it’s not just in women, but in men too.

And that is, character. Many intelligent and independent individuals lack certain traits in their character that helps create a successful relationship.

The reason why many intelligent and independent men and women struggle in relationships, isn’t their intelligence or independence, rather it has to do more about their character.

It isn’t intelligence or independence that determines relationship success. It is character. Like, humility. Wisdom. Understanding. Selflessness. Discipline. Etc.

So we may sit here all day and nag about men been intimidated by intelligent and independent women. But there’s always more to the equation that causes these issues.

Let’s learn to look at the picture wholly.
