I don't need someone as smart as me, I just need someone who I don't think is dumb. I don't think I'm in the 99th percentile but I found engineering pretty easy, so I'm probably not stupid. Also, they probably should have a good vocabulary, because I get irritated by people who continually don't understand the words I use.
As for Khaliva's comment, I think having areas of expertise that are different it really helpful. It's nice if you can look up to your partner in something, and that makes it easier. I don't think a relationship where someone felt that they were better in most categories would be very healthy. It's also an attitude thing though, I would find that kind of thing a lot easier than when I was younger.

With the person that's up for grabs, now, we might both end up in computer science. But he has a HND (associate's) in physics (not exactly my strongest subject) and a passion for entomology (which is awesome, but I know almost nothing about it!) and classical music (which I suck at), and I'm more of a chemistry and linguistics person, apart from the computational stuff. We'd also most likely end up in different branches of computer science, but it helps that we both <3 functional programming. I think it's cool to have many interests in common, as long as there's still some grounds for learning new things from each other.
