No? Or yes? I have a very high IQ, just saying, so it makes me ignore most peeps. I need mental stimulation.
And you, does it matter?
Is love more than a meeting of true minds?
Rabbit makes me melt, because we are the same IQ

I've been impatiently waiting for intellectual.

Yeah, IQ matters... ALOT.

Yes!!! I appreciate you commenting

I am smitten with a younger man. But my last husband was 10 years younger than me. So age is nothing.

Congrats!

Early days. But that would make you roll your eyes at feelings, when there is no face to face meeting.
By the way, I fell in love with Poppashroom, by internet and he fell for me. Please peeps, open your hearts to love

Gone fishing

Ha, ha. Me being me, I have just hit him up with being more than friends. Ouch, rejection is a possibility.

Yes, I'm in that not too large niche of needing someone quite intellectual but ALSO emotionally developed, so equal IQ & EQ. Hard to find. The ones that are (too) intellectual haven't developed the EQ. The not so intellectual ones have plenty of EQ, lack the IQ. I need both. It turns out to be a niche group.
I was the same with teaching. I loved teaching that niche level, the lower was mostly maintaining order, the higher no fun. But those classes in between... WONDERFUL!

I have nothing profound to say other than Crystal, you rock. Keep on being you, despite other's critism of you gf

Thank you so much, Ladywind! Means a lot to me

Babe, nobody opinions matter. You are a strong woman, I love it and you.

Thank you! I feel the same way about you and you being here

Cool. Keep being you Crystal xxx

To everything it has it's season...

Yes, to me intelligence and character matter a lot. Artistic or intellectual, either is good but I need real substance.

I need a partner who is at least curious about things, and wants to learn. Knowledge or 'IQ' doesn't matter so much, as long as they think about things a bit.
Know nothing know it all's are a bigger pain to me than ignorant fools, because they don't learn on purpose because they 'know', wheras the ignorant may become interested and may learn.
One friend with a mild intellectual disability drove me mad with silly annoyance, while another in a worse intellectual state was a delight, because they were trying to learn, and asking questions to understand.

A clinical encyclopaediac humourless brain would get on my nerves just as much as dating a moron, so not just IQ, but more well rounded human skills as well.

A ying to my yang, I know a little bit about a lot of things physical and tangible, but lack social skills etc., so a professional in the humanities, social, community etc. could influence me, and my physical knowledge and skills may inform them. A balance.

I've dated attractive idiots. It's difficult.
I've dated double degree know it alls, it's tedious.
I've dated average home makers, nice, but lacking spark and spice, boring.
My physical and intellectual equal best partner was stimulating, and demanding, and interesting, and curious, and argumentative, and never dull. She died 10 years ago.
Nothing intellectually stimulating since then. Ho Hum. Still looking.

If you don't come into my life through my brain,
you do not come in.

But....but....I’m a lobotomist

Common sense, emotionally available, and spiritually evolved matter more to me than IQ. With that said, it would be challenging to difficult to be with someone who had an IQ that was below average, as mine is slightly above average. Though I feel if he had the other three, that would supersede the lower IQ.

Yep. it matters big.
More than a little disparity between IQ (and EQ) only increses the incidence of misunderstandings. which quickly becomes tiresome.
I'm cursed with an IQ as well.

I could be ok with someone with a lower IQ as long as thier EQ could deal with it.
But a high IQ and low EQ. Would be more volatile. More exitement, more drama. Ok before about 40. But not now. No drama please..and no willful misunderstanding. ((((Cringe))))
I mean the ignorance I can understand, but the stupididity....
