Beauty and the Geek

So today while talking to someone I recently met (digitally at least), I was reminded with one of those special quirks that make me... well me.

I crave intellectual conversation. No wait... crave isn't strong enough. I am ravenous for intellectual conversation. Talking about philosophy, what makes people tick, people's beliefs, and other things just is so fulfilling. (Although whenever it happens it makes me lament over how rare the occasion actually is).

It also got me thinking about how I really need that in someone I am seeing. I have really only dated one person who enjoyed this as much as I do and it was great. I miss that a lot.

This also lead me to realize how the brain and personality really do weigh into my attraction level. I mean don't get me wrong... I am no saint. Looks certainly matter and draw you in. But the soul and brain are what keep you around. I think that is why some people are surprised to see who I have dated or who I get attracted to. They are so tied up in looks they don't see the stuff beyond the skin and muscle and... (ok sorry trailed off there) which can certainly be even more appealing than just the body.

Well yeah enough for now. I can't spoil the internet with paying it enough attention to get two posts from me in one day. I've learned my lesson again about giving it up too early and realizing it won't call me back the next day. SO HA! No more for you internet, not until later.
