I Admire Wit and Intelligence

[b]Intelligence and attraction[/b]
[sep]
I don't think there's anything more attractive than wit and intelligence. I don't pretend to be so deep that I don't pay attention to people's physical attractiveness initially but it means virtually nothing once I know how interesting they really are. One thing I've come to notice about conventionally attractive people is that they often aren't interesting or witty. Not because of some weird genetic malformation but because they've been able to rely on their looks, therefore haven't felt a real need to develop an actual personality. In this way I'm actually glad that I was an ugly duckling. I had to develop a full personality if I wanted people to engage with me. It doesn't matter in the end what someone looks like, what goes on inside their head is what makes a person enjoyable to spend time with.

Wit, intelligence and personality are absolutely important! To me, the soul of a person is everything. I can seem to find physical beauty in anything that has spiritual beauty. I can also see the thin veneer of what others may deem as conventional beauty that is trying to adhere to an empty, black soul. But beauty can not stick to nothingness. There must be substance.
