I'm having quite a bit of trouble finding a remotely decent girl in high school. Most of them are nowhere near my intellectual level and don't ever have any brainy or even geeky interests. I could probably attract some if I tried rather hard to change myself, but I will never submit to the bullshit of adolescent culture in my area. In addition, I've already been through a "relationship" (if it could even be called that) where I basically used a girl who was rather dumb but pretty to make out with, and I don't want that again. I require someone who is like me, as impossible as it seems.

On top of that, the only thing these girls seem to care about is the number of friends that a guy has (I have none, by choice and preference), how much he conforms (the more the better for them), etc. They are in a completely different perceptual set of the world around them, and I cannot associate with them on any grounds as a result. For them, their world is an ignorant bliss in which they only care about their "friends", gossip, and what just happened on Lost or whatever. By the way, I don't live in a city or poor area; most of the people in my vicinity are the children of upper-middle class people. And alas, this crap persists. :/

idk, I live a very content life overall, am academically successful, am becoming a respectable writer, and so on; alas I feel like can't be completely satisfied without a woman. I know that my mid twenties and on will be "my time", because many women who were previously dumb come to their senses, and will also see that I (probably, anyway, considering my ability) have a stable job, home, etc. Even given that I'm under this impression, however, I'm being driven insane by my search for someone right.

meh. I could go on and on ranting about this matter... I'm just trying to cope with the idea that I'll have to subsist though 10+ more years of my god damn life just to get this problem over with. Anyone else have similar problems, tips, or anything else to say that might bring me some hope?
