i would like to meet more girls who are like you. sadly, in my experience, all too many girls (people) are complacent with what they know/don't know. (it honestly baffles me to date someone who has almost no interest in taking advantage of my film library, book collection, records, etc.) this, in my humble opinion, is a very bad trait.
perhaps it goes without saying that i often befriend people on the basis of what i might learn from them. (when i was younger, i even went so far as to hang out with people i could barely tolerate, just to learn more about a given subject or have soemone to talk to about it. that seems silly to me now, but still, it's always a big plus if someone can school you on something -- without being a dick about it.)
but i'm straying here. my point is, i think it's disheartening that there's anythign "odd" about wanting to date someone because s/he could inform you about a specialized subject.
