My best friend who lives in CT was visiting this past weekend.
He said something about the person I am dating that makes sense. He said I have never been so complementary of any person before.
I really believe this is a direct result of being sapiosexual. Since most people are of average intellect and creativity I find most people of average company.
The person I am currently dating is the smartest woman I have ever dated by a long shot and even though I am also intelligent as I got older I started to get lazy with my intellectual pursuits.

Anything I put my mind to I became great at yet I was getting so depressed and bored with life the last few years I was beginning to think what's the point anymore.
Currently me and my girlfriend have argued most about when I apply to medical programs I wanted to stay close and probably go to whatever the easiest one was to skate by having lost my desire to be the best.
She refuses and told me if I don't do my best she wouldn't even want to be with me anymore.
I think the thing that hurt me most was losing my grandma who I took care of when she was dying of cancer.
She was always so excited whenever I would do or be excited by anything.
She was so proud of me yet once she expired the depression and lacking someone I truly loved in my corner like that just made me feel less energetic.
Yet now my girlfriend wants me to do my best which is a tall ask since my best is usually unbelievably intense.
I am greatful she is in my life and it is for her not only being someone I look up to and admire but someone who pushes me to be the best I can be that causes me to hold her in the highest regard.
