I don't think you can find like souls simply by looking for GTness. I would suggest your DD try to find activities that she enjoys, and she is likely to find some like souls at least in those areas. My friends in high school were the artsy/theatre kids, but no soul mates within my high school. I found the most like-minded people among the skate punks, likely finding an outlet to boredome in discovering how high they could make their mowhawks. wink I find more friends just doing things I enjoyed. Unfortunately, I didn't meet most of my good friends until after college.
