Can you date dumb?

I have a hard time understanding this because dumb people are a total turn off to me. Ignorant about stuff is one thing, but literally a DUMB person who is just... gah.

I know of someone who's been dating this chick. She's nice enough, but she's fucking stupid, man. It's hard to keep a convo with her because she essentially has the conversation skills of a kindergartener. She also cannot speak properly nor can she understand basic concepts of anything, really. She's mid 20s and doesn't seem to want to grow up beyond high school mentality of life. I think he gets off on having someone "lesser" than him because it makes his ego feel so high and mighty that he's smarter and can always tell her things and impress her with his intelligence.

Example of something she said today "I gived it to him."

...If someone is nice enough, I generally will overlook the dumb because they're just so sweet so it's like okay whatever. But I could NOT be in a relationship with that. I'd feel like I'd have to constantly babysit someone like that because they need adult supervision at all times due to their lack of common sense. Nevermind I find stupid a total turn off, so it's not like I would even get as far as considering a relationship, you know?

What's your take on people's intelligence and the role it plays in your relationships? Would you even have a relationship with someone who was really dumb?

lol!

dump her!

Intelligence is very important in a relationship. Not only for conversations, but for other aspects as well. for example 😄umb people don't understand that a man needs to go out with his friends sometimes. and.......and ........

You'd think intelligence would have to match at some level, right? That's why I've always been baffled by the example I gave above. He's much, much more intelligent. I've seen him talk to her about "intellectual" type of things and none of it seems to register. You can tell by the look on her face when she's listening.

But then again, he does like to talk at people, so I doubt he notices haha.

I think the speaker here is talking about people who can't think, those who don't use common sense.I don't think he/she is necessarily worried about grammar. Intelligence is not measured by how good your spelling is or how many degrees you hold, but it's how well you understand situations, how is your decision making, and unfortunately there are people who are born without those characters.

Maybe she has a mental disability? You're rude. This thread says more about you than the girl in question, though.

Please don't talk to my girlfriend like that. Rocky is a sweet heart. Sorry if you can't see eye to eye with her. It's really tough for her to be smart.

Posted by starwars
LOL!

maybe shes not that way with him, or he simply doesn't care about that or see grammar as too little of an issue, maybe he even like it.

I'm trying to learn and keep reminding myself that not whatever that effect me and bothers me is going to effect and bother other people.

maybe she has a lot more to offer, as you said shes sweet. so maybe that makeup for everything else. or maybe she's smart in others area.

I think everyone is smart or have some type of intelligence whether its emotionally or educational or artistically intelligent. even those with no talents who are all over the internet and get hundreds of dollars for being "dumb" as people call them, are actually smart cause they are making money out of having no talent or actual job. like who the fuck is able to do that?

Well yeah. But you have to be able to connect at some sort of level. If they can't keep up with you intellectually (or you lower yourself to their level constantly), it's kind of a moot point isn't it?

I've got a friend who's... dumb. I love her, but she's "blonde" as fuck. However, I gotta give her props for other areas in life. She puts herself in a lot of interesting situations for the sake of "experience." I'm the opposite and won't do shit unless I want to, experience or not. She just does shit to do it. It's why I'm able to tolerate her moments of stupid. It seriously makes me headdesk at times, but she's not a bad person. Just a ditz.

But relationship wise? I just.. can't. Dealing with dingy friends is one thing, but I couldn't constantly be in a relationship with someone who needed to be taken care of all the time due to their dumb haha.

Yeah it was just an example I gave because she speaks like an idiot as well.

But you know, most people on DXP have the comprehension skills of a toddler and miss the point of most threads. *eyeroll*

I usually start off my topics with an example because that example is what has me thinking about the topic. In turn, I'm curious to see how others would react/feel/whatever to the same idea or situation.

But nooo, people fixate on the example and start going on about that when the question was COULD YOU DEAL WITH DUMB PEOPLE IN A RELATIONSHIP?

Clearly they can because they're not too bright themselves, Jebus. Come on, people. Get it together.

Yes, with close relationships, I need compatible intelligence, is the best way that I can put it. A key part of what I enjoy about interacting with people I'm close to is conversations about many different topics and if our intellects aren't compatible it doesn't work. Common sense is essential too. It can actually be quite dangerous to be very close with someone who lacks common sense - decision they make can have very negative consequences.

I had a friend who wanted to date me and one of the big reasons I didn't want to is because he was very gullible and always falling for get rich quick schemes and things of that sort. He would sometimes ask me, and others, for advice about the schemes, then he wouldn't heed it and he ended up in a lot of debt. What was very obvious to us, using common sense, wasn't to him.

People like that ARE dangerous to have so close. They end up sucking you into their issues and now their problems become your problems. I constantly have to remind my brother about this because he's in business with someone like this. Dude's intelligent, but he's a fucking moron with common sense and I'm like dude, he's going to fuck you over- not intentionally, but with his lack of common sense about things.

...those fucking Leo egos, man haha.

I call people like that liabilities. You keep them at an arm's length.

I also had a friend who dated a guy who was liked the get rich quick schemes. Both of the actually did. so can u imagine the kind of things these two people are capable of.And if you try to warn them not to fall for such schemes they will cut u out of their lives before u finish your sentence.

they are both black listed because of those kind of schemes. And they are still continuing with them and no one is gonna stop them. I really don't trust those two anymore.

OMG WHAT IF THEY REPRODUCED—

That's even scarier haha.

Very true. And they like money too much and not afraid to borrow from everyone! The same people I mentioned , borrowed my car at some point, but I refused, cause I didn't want them to think I will always give them my car when they needed it. Who knows what they would do to my car for quick money.

I agree that they really can be dangerous. I think of people who marry someone like that and then the debt becomes their debt and worse.

Ok, now in all seriousness. I can and have dated "dumb". What they lack in intelligence they make up for in other areas. Most are generally extremely sweet, caring, happy, fun-loving, and slow to piss off. Many are feminine and very pretty, and have healthy lifestyles. So their values are found both internally and superficially.

I do agree that being able to maintain an intellectually stimulating conversation is important, and these girls typically have A LOT to talk about, so it is kind of finding similar ground. Problems occur if their lifestyle conflicts with your sense of security, as it usually will. They can be very unaccommodating and stubborn, in these cases and I have felt frustration beyond belief with it.

Overall, if you can find some common ground, then a good relationship is certainly possible with these types.

but you're a man...

so your 2nd head is thinking for you isnt it?

it's hard for us ladies to understand, because we lack the male component.

men have Always told me this, that for men, they think SEX.

and im like, wtf...why—?? you can't think of sex all the time when you're walkng down the street.

so basically if you're having fun for a short while, it's tolerable. Or maybe just a side thing, cause can you see yourself LIVING with that everyday?

or maybe it's cool because your 2nd head is thinking for you.

it's just hard to "grasp" but if it's just lustful, animal thing, like what animals do, then i guess so yeah. the thrill of it maybe really exciting.

Oh God! You're really going to go there?

Yes, sex with these types is great, and fun, but it's more than that. I can't speak for all men, but for me, I find these to be 'earthy' girls. They are generally more sensual, happy, and easy to get along with. They have an uncanny ability to withstand emotional turbulence and mood swings. Theirs, as well as mine, which is a kind of armor that will hold up well with my crabbiness.

Basically it is granting more of an emotional/sexual connection at the cost of an intellectual one. But yeah, if she's totally helpless, she might want to move back home.

Personally, it's just not my taste. I'm not shallow about looks though.

Same here. It's like how people have a preference for specific traits, yet here comes the butthurt brigade, taking personal offense to something that, I hope, doesn't apply to them. Depending on the situation, the intelligence bit can be the deal breaker.

Just like how you can come across the hottest guy out there, but he turns out to be the biggest asshole. Immediately is not so hot anymore. Turned off, bye.

Does being smart make you happy?

I don't think that intelligence is the be all and end all of anything, being understood and appreciated by your partner is the most important thing.

If they don't understand you or appreciate what you do for them then what is the point of being with someone no matter how intelligent they are?

As for grammar, I know that not everyone is perfect, so I overlook those things but will try and help out if I think that it is worth the effort,

However I did LOL at the OP

I love that man, but the problem is me. Every time he's around me he turns into this teenage boy who can't control his emotions. Happy laughing smiling playful joking.. He's so funny. He starts showing me affection kissing me hugging me groping my thigh.. But me? Sometimes I'm like a rock. I can tell its hurts him deeply because I won't budge and I want too, really really bad.

How do I break out of this mold? 😢 😢

if it's not natural....

i dont see how you can change that about yourself.

plus, i dont know why he sticks around if you're not affectionate to him.

not trying to be a party pooper but you probably need a different type of man.

I just read your posts and couldn't help but smile. You are insecure intellectually and are making this post to soothe your insecurity. Most intelligent people i know don't make posts like this. They are busy displaying their intelligence and not on astrology websites ranting about how inferior other people are.. The vast majority of your posts on dxp are emo pm's ranting that makes little to no sense. You are just a overly emotional chick who is trying to act hard(intellectually) This is all very clear just observing your comments.

back to the original question...........

I always put personality above intelligence. It's important for my partner to have a good personality and basically good heart. This is the fundamental thing i look for first. Second would be intelligence. I am most impressed with practical intelligence as opposed to savants or overly abstract type of intellect.

I think this is foundation for a good relationship. People who over emphasize intelligence are very suspect...........and since i am quite shrewd i can see through fake blowhards very quickly.

Oh sweetie, no I'm not.

But it amuses me how you think you can analyze here on DXP. You've been quite off in your "analysis" often lately with a lot of people/topics. I suggest getting some more life experience first before doing such things.

I don't know what happened to you in your absence, but you need to get a goddamned grip. I'm sorry some bitch wounded that poor Leo ego, but seriously, get a fucking grip. YOU WILL BE OKAY I PROMISE.

aww don't say that lisa. You are very smart and practical. Actually highly intellectual people always pair with someone who is more homely and has good street smarts because it complements them well.

while i've been studying astrology, i go by the top three, and top three houses that are dominant as well.

It's just my own way.

you can do it however you like. I like to do it the way that makes sense to me.

Quoting you OP (I'm having problems figuring out formatting here with edits):

"Like how you hear people use "supposably" because dipshit number two uses it?

It scares me that people blindly misuse words so badly just because they see other dumb people do it, too. We're in an age of information and nobody uses it.

In regard to the example I gave, that chick is in college and has been for awhile. I think that's why it disturbs me so much. She wants to be a teacher, but she can't even speak properly. You'd think that being in school for so long at this point, that any unfortunate mis-education given to her by whoever would have been corrected at this point."

.................................................................................................

It surprises me how that can be, but it seems that many people don't read much, and/or what they read often contains many mistakes (Youtube comments, for example). So they pick most of their language skills up largely via spoken word.

I agree that if she wants to be a teacher, and she's in college, those kinds of mistakes are particularly surprising. There must be a very lenient view in many colleges, in North America at least, because it's hard to imagine that her essays are written without such mistakes.

no. venus in virgo is not a great placement. venus falls in virgo. mercury is able to use virgo energy well.

Agreed, but I post Mercury in Libra up there as well, less harsh that Virgo, much more diplomatic and less apt to offend a more sensitive person
