While intelligence is a very difficult thing to measure, it can be obvious whether or not somebody in generally more intelligent and/or in specific areas of interest.
Barring a few subjects, I'm quite a bit more intelligent than my girlfriend, especially so in things like history, philosophy and politics. I don't think I could date someone more intelligent, simply for the sake of my ego.

I'm not trying to be egotistical or prideful, but I honestly think that it'd be very hard for me to find a woman who is more technically intelligent than me. I really hate saying that because it makes me sound like an ass, but I believe it to be true. I've been blessed with an interest in many different things and a thirst for knowledge that never ends. I'm not in any way saying that I'm the smartest person in the world, but based on how women tend to spend their time, it would be hard for me to find one that is more intelligent than me. Doesn't make me a better person at all.

4 通の返信Ad Hocにより編集済み: 11/17/2013 7:25:42 PMI don't think I could either. Growing up, my parents were constantly telling me how smart I was. Most parents do, but mine really laid it on, which I suspect was because of their own insecurities. That, of course, inevitably led me to associate intelligence with confidence and self-worth. Consequently, I get really frustrated and self-conscious if I'm not the smartest person in the room, which is very unhealthy. I'm sure that would be even worse if I was in a relationship with someone more intelligent than me.

1 返信You can't really be more "intelligent" than someone on those topics. Usually it just has to do with being more well versed. Unless someone is a complete dumbass. Most people can have a deep understanding of those things if they actually try and learn.
