Is high intelligence a positive when dating?

[Anonymous]

I've met highly intelligent women my age before. One was 155 iq, verified by their university. She knew how to "market" herself. Scarily good at that, she was. And I mean it was actually scary. everything she said and did felt calculated. But she was so captivating. She's the kind of female to make men insecure. And she was nice. She would go out of her way to help anyone who needed help. Without one insecure bone in her body. She was the most transparent human I've ever met. She projected her hormones, her emotions and feelings out onto the world. But in a terrifyingly filtered way, designed to make everyone around her fall in love.

People tend to seek their intellectual equals. So highly intelligent people tend to be attracted to other highly intelligent people. This does mean they are searching the shallow end of the genre pool.

I see a lot of idealization in this post...

that's not good, not smart

emotional intelligence does matter

[Asker]

What's wrong with having an ideal. It's natural. What's unnatural is telling someone not to do something they naturally do

[NathanDavis]

fooling oneself... would be wrong

ideal and idealistic are not the same thing... ask someone smart, lol...

[Asker]

Yeah i am smart. idealistic and ideal both refer to "the eternal world of reason". It's the same thing. If I believe I have good reasons someone is the best person I've ever met then it's perfectly natural to set them as the ideal

[NathanDavis]

no wonder you got all insecure about her... lol

… if you’re into IQ. I find IQ unhelpful. Most likely socially awkward despite how you’re describing her.


I like socially aware. And emotional intelligence tho

[Asker]

And dumb people would be just as socially awkward if the world was mostly smart. You have the crab in the bucket mentality

[Bobbybopeep]

See the world as it is not how it should be. Funny thing most IQ driven people lack: human nature knowledge.

Not always.. high intelligence can result in manipulation.

[Asker]

In this world you either manipulate or are manipulated

[petitedollbabee]

Thats a sad view on the world.

For someone who is as psychologically complex as I am, a woman who is highly intelligent is very appealing.

[Asker]

Yeah

[Anonymous]

Yes it is, but I guess that doesn't look good for you, right?

[Asker]

What?

[inhua]

no otherwise dumb people wouldn't be breeding as often and more than smart people

[shades777]

how would you even know until you go through enough scenarios? some people are obviously stupid while others play dumb or coy to plah with you. I think someone yoo can trust is better

[DextroShade]

It is for men, not as much for women. It can be a problem for women because they typically want a guy who is smarter than them.

[TheSpaceGnome]

Its a requirement. I don't date dumb women.

[TheSpaceGnome]

The people you mentioned in your updates are idiots.

Intelligence isn't scaler
