[quote=Anonymous]You are married to this guy for better or for worse so start focusing on his good qualities and try to ignore or downplay his "challenges." He may not be super smart, but who cares? Being kind, responsible, compassionate, giving etc are all more important in my book then being smart. Also, "being smart" is too simplistic. My husband, I believe, is quite smart, but he also is ADHD, so he has problems with organizing, focusing etc. He also is smart about how things work, but I think I am smarter about how people work, i.e. emotional intelligence. In a relationship, the most important thing is being smart about how to interact with your spouse. So he drives a few miles out of his way....big deal... Are you then so angry that you make him feel bad and it sours your relationship? Maybe go to a marriage counselor and discuss what each of you is bothered by. I'm sure he has his gripes. No one is perfect. Being married to a smart man has some benefits, but so does being married to a kind man, a rich man, a handsome man, a giving man, etc. Just focus on the positive and realize that being smart is not the be all and end all.[/quote]
