Smart is fun, sexy, kind, interesting, tolerant, positive, appealing, open to new things, able to grow, etc., etc.
People can be smart without a lot of formal education, without a lot of money, without having travelled a lot.
Smart people are not mean-spirited and they don't have closed minds.
Smart is great!

What's the most fun you've ever had?
The other person is most important - someone you can feel a connection with. Can be emotional, intellectual, sexual - but there has to be some shared experience, values or interests. If the date also involved music, sailing, dancing or amateur theatre it would be ideal. A Shaw play and a long stroll at Niagara on the Lake would be blissful!!!!!!!
