I can't read this dudette as it kills the inner bee in me. I feel like I just can't understand the language that is spoken within this post. I think you're of another species or something. Maybe you're coming across like a pseudo-intellectual. Do you know what that means with your super massive ego/IQ?
I really don't have a super-massive ego. I'm sorry that that's how it came across. My having a high IQ is just a fact of life, the same way that some people are extremely good looking or talented, and it's just false modesty to deny it. If I missed that fact out, this post wouldn't make any sense. I click-baited a little with the title because I wanted to get responses, but honestly, I think being very intelligent causes more problems than privileges.
Alright but it did come across that way. It's good to have a high IQ but IQ's don't actually prove how intelligent someone is. Intelligence is a lot more than a set of questions you have to answer and you'd actually have to take at least three different IQ tests with all different questions and still get an above average score to actually qualify as someone with a truly high IQ.
It's obvious enough that IQ doesn't mean anything though as the poster below me has stated. IQ tests are too simplistic and that's something that has been known for quite a while. Also, many intelligent people in the world who have contributed to the world of science with their genius minds would most likely have had an average IQ.
My IQ is 170 according to two tests I took online and one I took in real life three years ago. I don't think that means much of anything and take it with a grain of salt.
Intelligence doesn't cause any problems at all. I think it's how you present yourself. If you're overly outgoing and come across as someone who talks too much, that is something that could easily be seen as a turn off an a bit intimidating.
IQ tests don't mean anything without commensurate achievements. As I just commented to someone else, I got a scholarship to Oxford at the age of 17, which indicates an unusual level of intelligence. Again, I know this sounds shitty and like I'm bragging, the only reason I included my IQ test in the OP is because I try to take objective opinions above my own perceptions - the IQ test, my high achieving, and having a very good job is what leads me to believe I'm intelligent, it's not just my own opinions. That is all I was try to demonstrate and I wasn't trying to be arrogant (it's the internet, that would be pretty sad).
I really do think that high intelligence causes problems. At Oxford, almost everyone I met (and everyone I knew well) had social and developmental issues. I think it affects you because it makes you different, and that makes you strange. Even to other people in the same situation. High intelligence definitely doesn't translate to high social intelligence, and that affects your relationships.
I'm smart, pretty, weird, and I can't get a boyfriend
