[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Fun AI. To experience “the deep” (authentic and meaningful emotional connection with other adults) you have to know/be willing to tread in deep waters. Can you? [/quote] Yes, I am perfectly fine with going deep and have that with a few friends. But it's rare I find someone I actually want to go really deep with (i.e. talk about traumas or whatever). [b]A lot of people simply arent that intelligent or insightful, ime.[/b] Wish I could find more people where there was a really deep energetic match, between what we think is fun, compelling, interesting, challenging, etc. it always seems like one of those things is just... out of sync. [/quote] This tells me that you're the problem -- not them. [/quote] Well, I mean, I have a tested very high IQ, so maybe I am "the problem", statistically speaking. I certainly don't find many people that I find I can truly have an intellectually exciting conversation with. And it's disappointing, because I'm an extrovert, and would love to be able to "go there" with more people. But I can't control my IQ, my intellectual threshold, or anything like that. And frankly, settling for being friends with people who aren't as intelligent has been really unfulfilling to me. So maybe these kinds of gifts are isolating. I wish there was a solution. [/quote] NP. I’m really sorry, but genuinely intelligent people just don’t talk about themselves and their IQ like this. I think you’re probably at the same level as your current friends, you just believe that you are superior to them, and that causes problems.[/quote] Well, no offense but I dont really care because I've been tested multiple times and it's been documented by various test scores. So unless there's been some kind of widespread fluke in these standardized tests that apply only to me, then yeah, I am intelligent. And I fail to realize why that's such a big deal? Plenty of people are talented in various areas, but people seem to be really aghast if someone openly says they're smart. Which is so bizarre. Obviously there's smart people and dumb people and people good at sports and people bad at sports and people who are physically attractive and people who arent but it seems we arent allowed to say so, even on an anonymous forum? Really baffling. [/quote] You don’t sound smart. You sound autistic. Not that there’s anything wrong with that. [/quote] Well I'm not, so swing and a miss. But I do things it's kind of suss how much that gets thrown out around here under the guise of "not an insult". Hopefully you didn't mean it as anything ableist, because that would really be pretty gross, wouldn't it? And I'm sure autistic people would be hurt if they felt it was intended to be a jab. [/quote] It wasn’t meant as an insult at all. And I’m aware that many autistic people are extremely intelligent. I simply don’t think that you are. You are fixated on test scores, you don’t write well, and you are lacking in self awareness and social skills. You might be bright, but you’re certainly not in some league of intelligence that makes it difficult for you to maintain friendships. [/quote] Well I am 1) extremely intelligent 2) not autistic and your opinion is, frankly, not really relevant to either of these facts, no matter how much you may think it is. Anyway... moving on to people who can actually relate to this question and aren't just having a meltdown because I triggered them by mentioning IQ scores [/quote]
