anybody Have expereince dating "Elite" women?

For an enjoyable life nothing beats a smart attractive woman as a partner.

Kind of a confusing but interesting question and I'm interested to hear about it either way. You mean to ask about the dating of ambitious, highly successful women--

strong, driven personalities in prestigious professional positions or top athletes. But that might be too big of a question to meaningfully ask. Maybe you should just limit it to elite runners (not even professional athletes, just elite runners).

Dated a college professor for a while. She was a bit fugly, but was pleasant and quite intelligent.

Dude JDs are hardly "elite." Anyone with a pulse can get into a tier 4 law school, and there are lots out there.

Lots of guys "dated" Suzy Hamilton

My wife has a Ph.D. and we go on dates sometimes.

Guys can't handle that type

Dated a professional distance runner, a NASA aerospace engineer, a neuroscientist, and an MD.

They all have their quirks and eccentricies. You have to be a little crazy to be great at things. The same holds true for being successful in academic fields. The difference is how that crazy is directed. If it's directed and channeled in the right direction then dating "elite" women is great. If it's not channeled right, then it sucks.

Out of the above, the professional runner was the least adjusted. I love running and have done the whole train like a made man thing and get the sport, but she ended up driving me nuts. It was like being on an emotional roller coaster that was dependent on how her running was going. So you never knew what you were going to get. She was one who didn't know how to find that balance and have something else in life. Very smart girl, but very insecure and needy at the same time. Searched for validation.

The academics for the most part were well adjusted. What differed was how important they put their job. Some were consumed by it, some had balance.

I'm drawn to "elite" women because I like people who are passionate about something. You just have to be secure and realize that your not always going to be their center of attention. Which I'm fine with it because I work in much the same way.

Why?

Pros: they are often competent, interesting, and financially stable. They can do handy things like close your wound if you are bleeding to death.

Cons: If you lack confidence or self respect, they may scare you. If you like weak women, they may despise you.

I'm currently dating a distance runner who just missed making NCAA's in outdoor track last year and this is on point. If she's injured or racing poorly...I try to stay away from her haha

I dated and married a doctor. It is and always has been normal for me. I am an engineer, so we have mutual respect for each other on an in intellectual level, and truth be told, I know a lot more about what she does than the other way around, but I think that is typical for all women who are married to engineers. As long as you have respect for them and their careers, you will be fine. If you are looking for someone to be dominant over, I would recommend looking elsewhere, like Ukraine.

I bagged a 2:29 marathoner chick, but I never dated her. Does that count ?

Prefer dating women from Elite Models NY myself.

Here is a speech an Elite gal made at Princeton a couple years ago.

You must be mentally nimble to joust with the truly elite.

Nice. How was it? How does the endurance, physicality and distance runner outlook translate into the eloping dynamics? Or was that not a factor...
