885 opinions shared on Dating topic. I think most people are smart. But what makes me think someone is smarter than average is by how they carry themselves, what their interests are, how fast their brain might respond to anything I or the world might challenge them with, or even if I find that being around them is constantly challenging my mind in a good way. It might be an indication that they high fluid or crystallized intelligence
Determining exact intelligence is not an easy task Tbh. It might even be impossible for now. Even the IQ test are flawed. Many factors can be the difference between a lower or higher score. Even some amount of prerequisite knowledge is important with it. However, determining a general range is a lot easier. And you'll more accurately tell what general range someone is in based on how they logically discern logical things when they're in a normal emotional & healthy physical state.
Also there's apparently a correlation with people high in openness to experience & intelligence. But ofc it's not 1:1.

If somebody is able to remain civil and polite and open minded when they disagree with others, see value in people of all races and religions and intellectual spectrums in life, forgive when they are mistreated, include people who are weak or fragile into heir hearts and homes, and have the courage to be honest when they disagree with others.

2. They are not only just nice, but they have self respect and can stand up for themselves when needed.
3. If they are not the ones who always want other people to like them or to impress them but instead they don't really care about being liked but they care about doing what they think is right. Morally/legally/ethically and even otherwise.
4. If they can take tough decisions and if they are really choosy and picky about the kind of people they want to have in their life and if they don't hesitate to remove such people from their lives who they think are toxic in any way.
5. They way they talk and treat others.

I know this guy who has degrees in physics, chemistry, and math. He's a borderline genius when it comes to knowledge, but he has the common sense of a chicken.
