Throughout most of my life, I would get comments from people, particularly men, who would tell me that I am intimidating. Now, the word "intimidating" seems a bit of a stretch for a woman like me. To have men tell me and other women that we are intimidating to them may have cost them the chance of a fun adventure with us. So far, I've managed to conjure up 10 reasons why people should date intimidating women.

1. We Have a Good Personality

At first glance, intimidating women are people who give off an attitude and have a constant Resting B%#@$ face. Most of the time, we have RBF in order to file out the weak people in our lives. Once people have the balls to talk to us or even say, "Hi," intimidating women start to open themselves to a certain extent. After hanging out and getting to know people, we start to show that we are more than just our Resting B%#@$ Face. When my friends got to know me, they found out that I have a very dry sense of humor with a loud cackle. If any of you are within the LMU Film School during the weekdays, I guarantee you will hear a loud cackling laugh every now and then.

2. We are Good Listeners

Shocking enough, we are great listeners. When people talk to an intimidating woman for the first time, they believe that they are always being judged by the woman. For some, they wonder if the woman is planning to break into their homes in the wee hours of the night and murder them in cold blood or are planning a way to make them fail at any expense.

Sometimes, we may have an idea to perform those task; yet, our surprisingly warm hearts reject all those ideas and we end up throwing it away like molded cheese. In reality, we are literally listening.

Today, it is very difficult for people to focus in a conversation. Face it, we do this all the time in conversations; yet, an intimidating woman can be able to extend her attention span when she is in a conversation. Scientists and psychologists are still baffled about this finding to this day.

An intimidating woman listens to people and gives their full, undivided attention because they understand how it feels to be judged a certain way.

3. We Do Not Care What Others Think

While strangers, teachers, and even our own friends label us as women who are never happy or women who are too aggressive and scary, we do not care about that. We actually do not take it personally and sometimes consider it as a compliment.

Instead, intimidating women tend to act or portray themselves as whoever they want to be. For me, I consider myself to be a quirky girl who likes to walk around and listen to music. Despite having my friends think it is odd for me to shop or go to the movies alone, I personally like it because these activities allow me to have deep conversations with myself as well as think about new ideas or plans to overcome challenges.

For your information, I am not crazy if I talk to myself. Sciencists have concluded that it is a good thing to talk to oneself. Google it!!

4. We Live Our Own Life

When it comes to our life, we tend to stir away from the cookie cutter life: married with children; a house for four people and a mortgage; a steady job. Actually, the last one would be ideal at times. For us, the cookie cutter life feels too 1950s for us. Instead, we go for things that we want, whenever we want it. If we want to have a life partner instead of marriage, we will look for someone who wants the same thing. If we want to have children at age forty, we will plan a way with or without a guy.

A life as an intimidating woman is not a planned life on a straight line. The line is constantly changing its shape awhile goals and plans tend to come and go from time to time.

Many people may find it risky; we find it reasonable for our complicated life.

5. We Are Not Needy

For some couples who are dating during their college lives, there may be a moment where they might find out that their partner or girlfriend can be too needy. They would start to get annoyed when their other half is always wondering where they are and sometimes roll their eyes when they have to start sharing activities with their partners.

When we date, intimidating women tend to be independent. Intimidating women do not want to have their partner walking with them to stores at the mall or watching chick flicks. We can do that by ourselves thank you very much. Instead, we are the other half who allows our partners or boyfriends to do whatever they want to do in their life. Overall, we would rather have someone who will support us for anything that we get into.

Yes, there probably is a certain limit in support that a partner can give to an intimidating woman; however, it is undetermined what the average limit is to an intimidating woman.

6. We Can Take Care Of Our Selves

Along with not being as needy as the average girlfriend, we can take care of ourselves. This includes daily care, food, water, and clothing. We would rather have a person that we can receive support than to have a guy hold our shopping bags while we debate for two hours on whether the dress make us look thin or fat.

We understand that a guy has other things to do in their life like watching TV and watching TV. Another important thing they like is watching TV. I'm guessing that watching TV is a ritual for the modern man.

7. We Have Interesting Stories

Let's face it, with countless interactions with countless people, we are bound to have interesting stories. This part is rare for an outsider to know because intimidating women tell stories and jokes to their friends and partners exclusively.

With my dry sense of humor, sarcastic attitude, and monotone voice, I manage to make my co-workers and best friends laugh and sometimes even pee themselves. Mission accomplished!

There will never be a dull moment with an intimidating woman.

8. We Are Loyal

Surprisingly enough, we are very loyal to our partners and friends. For anyone who knows me, you may think I am lying. To some, I might seem cold-hearted towards other people's feelings.

Okay, I guess other intimidating women, along with myself, can be a little cold hearted when it comes to expressing our feelings. When my gay best friend told me that he loved me, I said "okay." I know that my reply is probably the worst thing to say to my friend who is expressing his feelings; however, I have been loyal to my friend since day one. I would be there for any thing that he needed help with like shooting his skits or watching movies with him. I am also there when he wants to talk about a previous hook up or having borderline depression. This goes the same with my other friends and even co-workers who need extra help on their film sets or need help with their scripts.

I believe that intimidating women are loyal because we know what other people feel like when they are alone or lonely. We may not be affected by loneliness, but we know "normal people" do.

9. We Are Not High Maintenance

Most men who are dating a woman these days complain that their girlfriends take an hour to put makeup on or a whole day to figure out what they want to wear for the day. Some men may get annoyed with dating a woman who wants everything done for her while she takes thousands of selfies for no reason.

Intimidating women stir away from the high, expensive lifestyle because we live in reality. We know life and goals do not come to us with ease. We know that we have to work hard and have an education in order to get what we want in life. As a result of education and having the ability to retain it in our so-called brains, we stir away from expensive clothing and jewelry because we know it is ridiculous to pay that much for something that will last for a couple of months.

Instead, we live a lifestyle based on what we need, not what we want. For me, it's minimal makeup, t-shirts, black boots, and green apples. Lots and lots of green apples. Like a ton of green apples.

10. We Are Honest

Along with being independent and have countless stories of our lives, we are honest with comments. When a friend wants an opinion on their essays or their life choices, we do not sugar coat our comments. An intimidating woman knows that sugar coating comments is fake and does not help anyone at all.

Trust me, we have tried to fake it and we do not like it. Sugar coating is fake and uncomfortable at times. We would rather tell the person the truth and have them improve than to let them fail.

For anyone out there who's thinks it's impossible to ask out an intimidating co-worker or even friend, there's hope. Yes, it could be grueling to have a woman give you the infamous look when you try to flirt or ask her out.

Don't worry. It's not the end of the world. Start out by getting to know her; create a conversation on a topic that's interesting and go from there. It would not be easy and may take some time; yet, if you are determined and want to go out with her, she will sense it and will let you know what she thinks.
