I am attracted to reality. Reality includes change. If I were attracted to conceptualizations, then I would be content with my dreams. I have an interesting challenge I need to work on: finding contentment with the peace of a connection. I frequently have fears about why the other person likes me, which prevents me from feeling satisfied with the connection.

As for IQ, I am attracted to people who try to cultivate and improve their mind. I really don’t care what their IQ is, as long as they are pursuing it.

If someone makes you feel happy when you are together, that's the smartest thing you can look for.


little and concise remark
:thumbsup:

"little and concise remark"
short but significant big sentence.
I wanted to say this.
she was complimenting you. Its like the expression 'short and sweet'. You communicated what you wanted to without rambling on....like what I do...lol


I understood a bit like criticism. happy

Discrimination against people with high IQ would make my ancestors turn restlessly in their grave. Fortunately no one on here does that.

Oh and the reason IQ scores aren't awesome is when looking for a girlfriend. Try spending the majority of your life when the only women who get you and become interested are using walkers, but like any red blooded man you want the hotties all the morons get to screw through all the good looking years.

It's a conundrum, the kind where you slap anyone who shoves an IQ test in your face and tell them go out and work for a living and figure it out for yourself. Does nothing for me.

And Mensa, omg I've never met so many pretentious idiots in my life. It's like an alien conspiracy convention, they're morons, seriously.

"Categorizing" people as to their level of IQ, in my opinion, is akin to labeling people with personality types - irrelevant and superficial. As long as one is at peace with one's self, not stepping on anyone's boundaries, and not using such "classifications" to prove that they're better than the rest, having an IQ of something to the nth power or the ABCDEFG personality makes one no different than the next person.

It helps a lot!!!!!!!!!! Can’t stress that enough if the person is on the same level emotionally speaking.

I understand your sentiment but people with certain personality traits and intelligence do have a better ability to function in social grace.
Ignorance may be blissful but it also contributes to communication failure. Life decisions are usually made without the understanding of cause and effect and causes complications in relationships that could or should be avoided.
Intelligence allows a person to build wisdom.

I've never been able to bring myself to desire
a romantic relationship, with a retarded person.

I believe that DonnaRocaMora is on the right track. You could think of intelligence or measured intelligence as just another trait, like perfect skin or large secondary characteristics (breast size, penile size, etc.). People who are proud of their innate intelligence are scary, like folks that are proud of being tall or such. Yet, it is the traits that attract us. Some will be attracted to big IQ. In my experience, there's a sort of "golden zone" for intelligence: too high types are non-functional in society, too low bore me. I like IQ high enough to be clever, but want to be with grounded, functional individuals with decent emotional maturity.

I think IQ is irrelevant to relationships. Mating in particular. Sure, mating for humans today is not like the way it is thousands of years ago, but i think you cant just pick a person who has lower, higher or average IQ compared to you. Picking a person to be a partner is more about feeling lol.

Higher IQ does not translate into serious relationship material. What does is inside the heart not the mind.

there is a reality in history;

some people were thrown out of their schools. why?
She was dismissed from school because she thought she was stupid.
but then those people did very important things. They wrote their names in history.
there are examples of this.

I value RQ more than IQ.
RQ is Reasoning Quotient.
I'm attracted to people that use sound reasoning.
It just so happens that people that have sound reasoning also have higher intelligence.
I'm also attracted to EQ.
EQ is Emotional Quotient.
People with a high emotional control usually have a higher intelligence.
My IQ is above 160. Finding women near that quotient is unlikely but if I did, we would surely hit it off.
My X has an IQ of 70, nearly all my girlfriends have been below 100.
The problems I have encountered with women is more of a RQ or EQ issue that stems from a lower IQ.
My children are all above 120 IQ.

IQ has little to do with smart. It has little to do with wisdom.
Smart and wisdom has to do with making the right decisions at the right time.
You can have a high IQ and be dumb as a box of rocks.
You can have a high IQ and be an emotional wreck.
You can have a lower IQ and live in contentment and harmony.

I've had multiple intelligence tests and each time results in a different number. While all are within 2 or 3 values of 160 they are never the same.
Sometimes its slightly higher, other times slightly lower.

People think they are discriminated against because they have a lower IQ but I find its just the opposite.
People with high IQ, RQ and EQ are more often the ones being discriminated against. If I don't curb myself and simplify, people get offended. Its hard finding someone I can communicate with on equal levels, that would surely be a plus but I don't see it as a requirement.

I value honesty way higher than IQ.


This was an amazing answer. Well said.

I need someone with good intelligence and understanding of things, has insight and so on. Considering the things I'm busy with in life, he'd need to be on a higher level.
But not too high --> Typically people who are quite high on the scale -let's call them bookwurms, higher education- lack when it comes to EQ.
And where I'm at, EQ is very important.
So I need a man with above average IQ AND EQ. Those aren't readily available ohwell It's usually either one of them and that's not what makes me happy.

So is it important? HELL YES! A man can be very good, warm-hearted, caring, loving, but if he lacks when it comes to intelligence I'm not going to be happy.
And come to think of it: he won't be happy either as he won't get half the stuff I'm busy with. So to him it would be constantly feeling he cannot make me happy.
