That is your best post and a killer question. I have a personal story that addresses that question. When I was in college, I always preferred the foreign films. I went to one day and the story was a hairdresser in a resort in the Swiss Alps, met a PhD philosophy professor at a university.

They fell in love and got married. But the professor, wanted his friends over and they wanted to talk about deep subjects. But she wasn't interested. He tried to coax her into becoming interested, but she was never interested. She liked being a hair dresser. And so they started having a lot of trouble in the marriage because they had different interests that were profound to a life style.

They talked a lot about taking a trip to the tropics. At the very end of the movie, you see him walking into a building and there are all these pictures of palm trees and South seas tropics and you are under the impression they made it, but then as he walks further into the building, you realize that it is a hospital for the insane. He had driven her insane.

He had inadvertently driven her insane. When he came in to visit her, she would say something like is everything going to be okay? He didn't mean to, but it happened nevertheless.

So I was very careful not to date women like that. Because I am terrible about that sort of thing.

Tthat is why I never dated women there were not comfortable discussing ideas. I knew that if I ever married a woman like that I would drive her crazy. I ended up getting married three times, and every single one of my wives was far and away my intellectual superior. So I had a comfortable relationship with all three of them because they were smarter than I, so I didn't have to worry.

I was either talking about something they could easily grasp, or I was just being stupid and they put up with that-lol.

<<>>>Just once in a while it would be refreshing to see someone ask a question-lol.<<<

How do you feel about this woman? Do you want her to change? How so?

An ignorant peasant woman adores her husband and greets him lovingly as he returns from his struggle in the economic world. She cherishes her children and is thrilled to be a part of their development. Yes she toils in the home but enjoys a full social life with her friends over coffee and shared experiences like baking or sewing circles. In this way her education could be called 'alternative' as she is kept up with worldly developments through her daily social gathering with friends. She considers herself fortunate and happy.
