Why did you even go to one meeting? I'm not trying to judge or be mean, I'm just curious about what drives someone to be part of a group like that.

During our monthly gifted meeting (ie, a trip to the courthouse because my school was broke as gently caress) they said we should check it out. We might make some friends, hang out with smart people, ladadada. It was at a local school, so I drove there with a friend whom I talked into going. It was a goddamned sausage fest, full of self-important neckbeards--redundant, I know-- doing creepy neckbeard things. Outside of the few high school kids, the youngest was at least 30. I was cornered by many of them, all telling me about their obsessions. You bet I never went back. They pestered me to join for years.

My ex was that kind of person, the sort that is legitimately the smartest person in the room. He has an IQ of 180.


Mine still puts me squarely in the top 2% but I still felt like a moron around him the vast majority of the time. He has no concept of what it's like to not understand how to do complex math or coding and thought that if someone doesn't understand it that they're just being lazy. If anyone ever messed up anything at work he would openly call them a moron or stupid and there was no chance the company he works for would ever fire him over something like that because they needed his smarts to fix literally everything when something catastrophic happens.


Also due to being right the vast majority of the time definitely made him feel like his opinions were always right even if there was something not quite right about it or a bias. He never called me stupid though, at least not to my face or that I know of. I think being with me for two years taught him that some people do have mental limitations even if they are smart and that he really just doesn't like being around someone a good chunk of the time if both persons aren't on the same level. He didn't get annoyed with people all the time to be malicious, it seems like it was a genuine frustration that no one he knew with the exception of his dad were on his level. When we parted ways it was amicable at least.

Anyway, that was how he dealt with always being the smartest person in the room.

I dated a girl with literal brain damage/neurological problems, she had surgery where they opened her skull... she was 30 (I'm 35). She was overly emotional, very limited socially, and was a raging drunk due to her problems.

I guess what I'm trying to say is that I'm getting deja vu and the posters in this thread have options.

Hoooooo boy, where do I start? Well, actually, I'll start with pointing out that you'll all see how loving obvious it is that my first sentence was an exasperated and condescending rhetorical question; you need me to point this out to you, despite its previously asserted obviousness, because my one blind spot is remembering how loving much my intelligence exceeds everyone else's. Already, you should be noting my proper loving use of a goddamned semicolon (that's this thing ---> ; yes, shocking, it's not just for making winking emoticons, I know (you'll note that my use of the semicolon where I had to loving point out what the gently caress it even loving was also happens to be a correct usage of it because that's just the level that I'm on - or you would notice that, if you weren't the intellectual equivalents of, poo poo, I don't know, normal people that aren't my own goddamned self - and that I'm about to correctly close this diatribe within a rant with proper parenthetical ettiquette and punctuation)).

Anyway, the way I deal with it - because I always loving have to, OP, and thread at large (and, really, humanity in general) - is, to answer your question you loving moran, pretend I'm watching my favorite animes instead of listening to your insipid bullshit.

That's what I do

What you do is find the person who thinks they are the smartest person in the room and you lick their balls. While you are doing this you take their pants away and lock them in a room so their balls get all chapped and super gross, and then you are not only the smartest person in the room but you also got a free pair of pants and underwear and you got to lick some balls.

i also was in a gifted program with lots of adults calling me smart and guess what turns out i'm actually a dumb rear end in a top hat and so're you

I had this experience too. Turns out "talented and gifted" basically just means "capable of manipulating adults," in the running of things I'm a massive cretin. There are way dumber dudes around of course but that's no mystery to deal with, just drink and yell until you're as stupid as they are. Boom, you have friends now.

OP you should probably try to get some friends or something it doesn't sound like you have that in your life and you're really missing out

Hey all

So I have a pretty high IQ. Not super genius levels but statistically on any given day theres very little chance I'll run in to someone smarter than me.
Now you may think "Wow nice brag Surface about a good thing" Well turns out its not so great.

I'm a pretty successful guy overall with a high paying job, nice gaming rig, and good friends/family

But how do you deal with being surrounded by people stupider than you? Like you 'get' something and it takes all the people around you forever to figure it out.

How do you all connect with someone on a deep level that's just plain stupider than you? It narrows the dating pool a lot but luckily over the years I've met some smart girls.

How do fellow smarties get by?

regular public defecation, just line up a big old ''core dump'' (smart person pun) and let itgo

I don't watch anime. It was a clever satirical move that went over your head. And pulling that is how I actually deal with being the smartest person in the room. Also by being a bad poster
