• I am looking for a dating service which pre-screens based upon intellect. There is a service (THE RIGHT STUFF) which restricts itself to the Ivy League schools. But this service misses all the great PhD-types who attended a state school. (Other ideas? Mensa? Professors' organization? Graduate student group? et cetera) Any help would be greatly appreciated!


  • Thank you, Julie! Much appreciated.


  • Another service you might want to consider is Booklovers: http://www.bookloversmm.com/ This is a "matchmaking" service for people interested in long-term relationships (not necessarily marriage, but more than just casual dating.) Booklovers is a service that has been around for a long time, and has advertised in the Mensa Bulletin for decades. I've met three couples who were "matched" by Booklovers, and all of them spoke highly of the service. My acquaintances who used Booklovers did so by mail, before the Web site was established. I would think the online service would make things much easier and faster.


  • Thanks again, PinkFreud. You are Tops !


  • Mensa is a great place to meet people. I have been married for twenty-two years to a nice guy I met at a Mensa meeting. It seems to be hereditary, since my mother met my stepfather through a classified ad in the Mensa Bulletin! Even if you don't find a life partner there, Mensa is well worth joining for the enjoyable social occasions and interesting publications. In addition to local events, the regional gatherings and the big annual gathering are a blast. Nobody knows how to throw a better party than Mensans.


  • Thanks for the quick work. Maybe I'll name the first kid Journalist-GA... heh heh heh


  • Greetings! The dating service Brain Appeal states on its main page: "Finding intelligent life on the net has become a non-trivial task in this modern age. brainAppeal is the best place to find other geeks, no matter the flavor of geek, whether they be computer geeks, math geeks, or art geeks. They are all here, waiting for you, in all their glory. "brainAppeal is a community of intelligent people. We have developed a system of human moderation that only accepts profiles of intelligent people. Currently the rejection rate is 23%." I did a search there for men between the ages of 25 and 50 and received 248 returns. The same criteria for a woman returned 48 profiles. In the search, one may specify keywords. I did not - I executed a simple search. On Mensa's site, there is the following: "Does Mensa Provide Social Interaction? "Mensa meetings are anything but dull! Local groups meet at least monthly. Often it's for dinner and drinks on a Friday night, or for get-togethers featuring a speaker or a lively, freewheeling discussion. All are with fellow members who share your intellectual interests. Some groups have special get-togethers or activities throughout the month. Others, especially the larger groups, have events nearly every day. Of course, participation in local group activities is always entirely at your option. There are also widely attended annual conventions offering workshops, seminars, and parties, plus, numerous regional gatherings are held each year, offering social and intellectual excitement." The annual conventions are not specifically a dating service but would seem to offer possibilities for introductions as well as a way to discover from other members if an elite service exists which is not highly advertised. I hope brainAppeal meets your needs. I could locate no other services that mentioned any type of applicant rejection apart from brainAppeal. Good luck in your quest for an intelligent partner.
