I'm a rare combination of smart, loyal and honest because I am emotional too. I am empathetic and like to be FAIR. That's why I never exploited or betrayed anyone.
What's a big deal to keep things transparent?
But unfortunately my ex was a Liar, people love to complicate/ hide things and yes I don't trust most of the smart people because they MISUSE it. If someone is smarter than me you bet my bottom dollar that they're NOT TRUSTWORTHY. If someone is too intelligent then that person has minimum emotions and cruelty begins from the lack of empathy.
There are very few people smarter than me. But there are some. And I don't say this to be arrogant or anything, cause I'm definitely not. I'm just saying, if we were to put this in IQ points (not that IQ is a great measure for intelligence, but it's an easy way to quantify and compare it), my IQ is around 150-155. Yes, I know there are 165s and 170s out there like Sharon Stone, James Woods, and Jodie Foster, but I'm just saying... They're very rare. As for trusting them... Not a chance. Then again, I rarely trust anyone, so... No.
Also, given how human intelligence seems to work, they'd not only be more confused and frustrated at their fellow humans, but even *more* jaded and cynical about the world than I am. Although it's easier to be rich when you have money. I'm smart, but also broke.
What a bizarre outlook. You must see the world as a zero-sum place where everyone is out to take advantage of everyone else to the maximum extent possible. If you let someone into your life of poor character they can screw you over pretty good regardless of whether they are smarter than you or not.
It’s hard to tell. Smart in what way? In manipulation? No, it’s too easy to tell if someone is manipulating you. Smart in a way that they know how to make good choices? Maybe. Sometimes people genuinely feel like it’s better to tell your secrets. Smart as in, helping me smart? Yes I will trust them.

... Billy Joel says it all...
In his song
Matter of Trust
Read the lyrics enough said.
Of course. If I ask a question to smarter friends than me that I don't understand, that they will explain that question in a way that I can understand.. as a short summary. They don't think to outsmart me for I don't understand the question.
Hell no. I'm ridiculously smart, like I got tested a lot kind of smart. I think we might clash, braincells does come with a certain level of attitude. Sometimes it works, and it works amazingly, most likely it would constantly be a battle of wills.
You would rather have a guy who's just your pet?
Considering I'm not some sexist feminist. No. I just want to be the smart one in the relationship.
Smart people can always be trusted to do what's logical.
Stupid people are a lot scarier. You never know what they'll do or why, and usually neither do they.
I don't know not really my thing. I hate thinking and probably wouldn't feel safe and secure around them. Because they'd be happier with someone else and I doubt id be that.
If I trust him not to come in my eye, I can trust him not to outsmart me.
Trust doesn’t come depending on smartness. You trust someone only when you know that their advice is filled with wisdom, knowledge and understanding coupled with years of experiences.
Of course. As long as they're not a pathological liar the fact that they have more understanding over something than I do would have me put more trust in them.
That's hard to accomplish. I always stood out from the rest, I was only 8-9 when I had enough knowledge to figure out that all religions are fake, for most a lifetime isn't enough to figure out this simple fact. I can't recall being outsmarted ever.
I tend to trust dumb people more, i feel smart people are conniving
I probably just wouldn’t enjoy being around that person. I like being the smart one.
My ex was always telling me not to be so technical. I just explained things very basic so people could understand it.
I believe that she was just not intelligent enough to understand simple basic explanation of things
You have to remember that there are plenty of subjects where the simple basics are too complicated for you, too. You might be very smart in your own areas of expertise, but even the stupidest person has their own areas of expertise where they can make you look like the fool if they want. So be nice when you explain things to people.
Ridiculing people who are stupider than you is no different from beating up people who are smaller than you. You should only pick on people your own size, as it were.
I'd view it as a positive challenge. So yeah I'd at least try to trust them at least even if it doesn't work out I can say I tried...
Of course, I have a friend like that, he's a loyal friend
That is about their character, not their intelligence. A manipulative intelligent person is someone you want to avoid.
That's the point of being smart that you don't know when they are manipulating you. You just do what they want and you think it was your idea. So my question in other words. Would the intellectual capacity to manipulate people to such a high degree would deter you eventhoug they've never showed any sign of malifence?
Why would that be a issue regarding trust? If anything that would make them more trust worthy by default.
Smarter, dumber I don't trust fully anyone with exception of few people who earned my trust over years.
This makes me afraid. My girlfriend is way smarter than me. In every sense.
I am the muscle and she is the brain of the relationship, no question.
I am afraid that I can't fullfil her need for intelectual conversations. And even more afraid that she knows that I can't and is just having me while she doesn't have a better option.
If anything, I'm too trusting. The person doesn't even have to be smarter than Me.
Depending on their person and if they have shown me with their actions that I can trust them.
You don't trust blindly right off the bat, now do you? Trust is earned through the time you get to know each other and through actions.
For me being safe has a relatively low priority comparing to satisfying my curiosity. Sometimes I just got really interested in someone and I don't care if I'll get hurt, but I must know that person. That's why my question about trust, just wanna understand how people who put more importance on it think.
Sound like it can be dangerous for yourself if you don't care about your own well-being.
But, yeah, to me being able to trust the person is important.
whether I trust someone doesn't have to do with whether they are smart or dumb. Although dumbness might lead to untrustworthy behavior even if unintentional.
The real question is can the smart person trust me... 🙃
You can, but their ability to manipulate you will always be present. That doesn't mean they will, though.
If they were a good person I would hope so. it wouldn't take much honestly so odds are they would be.
YES people smarter than u we need to be grateful for there knowledge
Yes, why wouldn't I trust them if they were smarter than me (as unlikely as that is)?
ohh, i guess but i dont think of them as evil
I am definitely more willing to trust someone more capable than I am.
In my experience, people are more likely benign than nefarious. One would have to be cynical to be afraid of people smarter than them.
As for the rules. You assume that being "smart" enough renders them to break "the rules" without consequence. That is not true and anyone "smart" enough realises that, hence they'd rather not bother. We might get somewhere if we dropped the abstraction, can't possibly cover all possible scenarios.
I want my soulmate to be smarter than I am.
I don't even trust my family, so no.
I don't trust anyone.
Girls aren’t smarter than me
Use your gut instinct.
If they were close to me then I would trust them
Do such people exist
Yes.
Shouldn't trust anyone in general
Of course.
Nobody is smarter than me. 😎
Hmm 🤔 i guess yes, you can accept
Which?
I don't understand what it you implies. But you englishmen are so cool. 😏 Why?
You're cool because you're British, and we're a despicable race because we belong to the category of other people. Is not it? 🙄
Wow. So you are not a purebred Englishman. Then you're from in our group too. where are you from originally? And also I can't hear your accent now. 🙄
You are cheap half Asian, but even being Hungarian makes you a noble European. Why did you move to england I am from a country mix of Middle East and Asia. Which do you speak how many speaking?
How many languages do you know?*
Hungary is Eastern European, for British people it's already Africa or something. They ain't very good at geography. I moved here cus of sex tourism. Joking noone comes to England for that reason. I just wanted something different. I didn't really have any other reason than explore something new. I speak 2 languages and just started to study Chinese. Are you from Pakistan?
Hungary is not in Africa. Are you kidding me. Hungary is a country in Europe. What does sex tourism mean? Where did you out that I'm from Pakistan?
Why you learning Chinese?
Sex tourism is to visit a country only for having sex with local women. As you described British superiority, I thought your country had to have some colonial history. And middle East/Asia was a big help. At some point I wanna move to China, so I'm studying Chinese, my dad didn't teach me.
my country has never been a colony of another country. (I really wish it was a colonial country, but that's another issue.) We had a great leader and he had not accept the colonial ruled. The reason I say the British are superior is only because it is a decent country in the middle of Europe. and sex tourism is inhuman, immoral, and atrocious. You must have a very broad personality. And so your mother is Hungarian and your father is Chinese. do you speak hungarian I think learning chinese. i sure you can not learn the chinese alphabet for a while. because chinese very very very very hard language.
Wasn't that the Muslim population of India got separated from it and it's Pakistan now? So what I meant by colonial history is pre 1947. Britain has never got any wealth without invading other countries. Like literally not once in it's entire history. And now without stealing , GDP growth is lower than inflation rates. There is nothing superior about Britain. Hungarian is my first language. I kinda use a shortcut with Chinese and don't really know how to write. I can only read and type. But thinking about it. I hardly ever write in any language so at the moment I can get away with it. Do you mean thinking about you learning Chinese?
Why are you confusing Pakistan and India? Where did pakistan and india come from? And you're quite knowledgeable, well done. But my country has never been a colonial state. What is your main language? No i hate Chinese language. Chinese doesn't even have a proper alphabet. Why would I want to learn that language?
Yes. no problems.
Like hell I would.
Once I was really into bloodtypes and found a research that concluded that in isolated environment AB outperformed everyone. But when they played against eachother type 0 beat AB anytime. Regardless of blood types there are these two certain types of intelligences. Which one did you think of when you answered?
None
I was thinking more into psychopaths and gifted people, bro
Brave of you to assume all psychopaths are pussy whipped
Sounds fair enough
Probably not.
yes.
Sometimes I can.
