No, this is why I am so happy all my past relationships didn't work out. Mine is 120 so I'd love for my partner's to be even higher. I also want my children to be beautiful and taller than I am. Before I knew what IQ score was and got my test done, I wondered why my exes were so dumb, now I get it. My only two serious relationship was with men who were white with higher IQ than mine, I am black by the way. I knew the last one's score after I told him what mine was, but I assume the first guy also scored high based on his intelligence and knowledge of the world, he was also a business man.
IQ isn’t the end all be all of a person. A person with a low IQ can always become smarter. That being said to me it’s more important that they can be empathetic. Even the smartest person can have difficulty understanding emotions and more importantly empathize with others. My wife is ideal. Not only does she have the cognitive ability to solve and understand complex problems (IQ) but also apply it to the world around her and consider the human effects it has on the world in general. IQ isn’t as important a factor as much as being empathetic towards others and most importantly be able to admit when they are wrong. (Being humble)
No, I'm not sure that I could. And that's because I like to have somewhat intellectually stimulating conversations. So part of me just wouldn't want to get involved in anything too serious with them because I'd want more from them than I'd be able to get.
I. Q. (intelligence quotient) scores are largely meaningless. They are not a true indicator of general, or any other form of, intelligence. When Binet during the early 20th century came out with the first IQ tests, they were only ever meant to be for children, not adults. The only thing that IQ tests accurately measure, is one's ability to complete IQ tests.
It depends on their personality. You can have different kinds of intelligence that are not related to IQ. For instance if someone is very self aware but has a 90 IQ they could still be attractive but if someone has no self awareness and is also not bright that's more of a repulsive thing.
I'm not sure what an IQ of 90 entails. Can they converse? Can they form their own opinions?
But there was a girl I had a fling with for a 2 weeks and asked her to read what I had written for my book draft so far. She said "Wow... you're really smart. I didn't understand much from it." My book was fantasy based and pretty light reading so it pretty much instantly turned me off when she said that.
High IQ doesn't appear to have any impact on virtue... and that's kind of what I'm after. Now it would be really nice to date someone who could spar with me on an intellectual level, but ultimately, I just need someone who's going to love and care for me. I'd rather have that kind of partner with low IQ than a high IQ girl who's always trying to undermine me
An IQ of 85-115 is a normal range. That’s your standard everyday people... So I guess the more important question is how long? I have an IQ of 158 so most normal people aren’t exactly intellectually stimulating, but they can be nice people and fun to be around. They can also be really taxing on my patience when I have to talk to them on a regular basis...
I just couldn't, I'm not Mr. Brainiac or anything, my girlfriend is way smarter than me education wise but if you have no common sense, I'm gonna commit warcrimes. It's one of my pet peeves when people don't have common sense or think things through. If I dated someone that made stupid decisions all the time I might get so annoyed I'd just blow my brains out.
I used to say no, but now I think yes, if they have a sweet heart, and they aren't like so dumb that they are a danger to themselves. And hopefully they know their limits and won't argue with me on certain things that would just aggravate me to death. So as long as they are sweet, kind, caring, loving, and fun to be around, why not?

IQ is not an adequate measurement of intelligence so maybe. If they were not smart though probably not because I need people I can communicate with and I don't like explaining everything. I hyperfixate on medical conditions and enjoy talking about them so I need people to understand at least a little.
How exactly would you know someone’s IQ just from going on a date with them? Is there an entrance exam before the date? Also, someone’s IQ doesn’t define the type of person that they are. You can have a relationship with someone with an IQ of 170 who lies and steals and starts arguments with you just because their IQ is higher than yours.
I knew someone who only date guys with only all grades with A+, A and A-. If your next report card is under A- or if you get a single B+ then she’ll dump them.
One of math / production teachers who happens to be her future husband. They hid their forbidden 2 year relationship until after she graduated with his 3 month unborn baby
No. If he even doesn't comprehends subtle allusions and I have to talk with him like with a dog, this isn't the type of communication I want to have with a guy.
I mean date doesn't mean marry, I've only ever dated quite intelligent women and thst hasn't really worked so maybe i could be happy with a less intelligent girl
There are many with a standard IQ score that behave as if their actual value was below the double digits. So it depends. On how actually dumb they behave.
No. Because they wouldn't be intelligent enough to handle interpersonal communication and conflict resolution. The whole thing would be doomed from the start.
no, cause there's not much of a point to it. you litterally can not relate with one another, if the IQ disparity is too high. sure you can be attracted to each other and have a nice conversation maybe. but long term, it won't work.
If they have a good heart and personality, then i don't see why not. Not their fault really.

If they're in the normal range, why not? like i don't care really how smart you are as long as you're normal. Now if you're under that, like you're retarded, fuck no
You’re lying, I know plenty of uneducated boxers who probably have a low IQ. If they’re Filthy rich You’d date them in a second. Most women would, 98% of them.
I have enough IQ for both in us. I am looking for a good person I enjoy spending time with. I don’t need someone who can discuss the differences between a Merlin engine and a Raptor engine.
I dont feel like IQ is the best measurement for intelligence, even though there is a basic competency for which I need in a partner even if it's just a sexual one.
The fast food industry is rejoicing, I'm sure. Yes, it IS getting hard to draw comparisons/similes with the new POTASS, er, POTUS, without insulting foods, animals, rocks, and other inanimate objects. :- )
I can convert person with low IQ to high IQ , so no issues and if you cannot do the same then you surely have low IQ. So, I would date a person with low IQ.
No, I would not. I prefer women that are smarter than I am.

Maybe they can’t be retarded but just being below average isn’t a deal breaker. Who cares if they can’t think as fast, most dumb people can still grasp concepts and learn to a point.

She would have to know she’s dumb like Forrest gump
Anything below about 120 is indistinguishable which is like 90% of the population. Considering my social skills if I ruled them out I'd never date again.
Why do people always associate being dumb with being a Trump supporter? It has absolutely nothing to do with being a Trump supporter. A person can also be incredibly smart but be supporting Trump.
People who associate themselves with the insanely egotistical and intolerable party that Trump represented instantaneously become stupid. They could be smart by definition but to support someone of that filth is absolutely stupid. Any political party that was convinced raiding the Capital of the country was a good idea, they can go back to eating crayons.
I have been to Africa once and I met pleny of people who are street smart and did things some people here in the West countries didn’t even know how to do it. Also there are many people too who know much by reading and are more intelligent than you are.
