Over for IQcels' Social Lives

Why Smart People Are Better Off With Fewer Friends

The more social interactions with close friends a person has, the greater their self-reported happiness. But there was one big exception. For more intelligent people, these correlations were diminished or even reversed.

More intelligent individuals were actually less satisfied with life if they socialized with their friends more frequently. Let me repeat that last one: When smart people spend more time with their friends, it makes them less happy.

In other words, if you're highly intelligent, interacting with others is such a pain in the ass that rotting alone most of the time is actually as good as it's going to get for your quality of life.

To add insult to injury, female iq clusters much more heavily around the mean (graph below). So if you have an IQ that's significantly greater than one standard deviation above the norm, finding even one girl that's smart enough to easily get along with is a long shot. Your best bet might be rotting and having unfulfilling casual sex with dumb dumbs for the rest of your life (if you even have the looks, etc. to pull that off).

true, rather be single than having to deal with low iq foids and normies all the time, unless you're chad the hassle is not worth it

Sounds like some kind of cope tbh. And most 'high IQ' people are actually dumb af outside of whatever special nerdy interest they have. Just lol if you think IQ matters for social skills.

I'm srs.

High IQ is mostly just useful for shit like computer programming, chemistry, math/physics etc it's almost completely useless in day to day life unless you have literally sub-human IQ. Also, lots of the brainwashed woke types have high IQ yet are af.

Day to day life presents plenty of little challenges and being high iq/good at problem solving allows you to deal with them much more efficiently. What does any of this have to do with the post though lol

Isn't IQ like the best or second best predictor of life sucess?

There are more men at over 115 IQ but the difference isn't THAT big. It's something like 58% male 42% women

Yeah true but that’s just one sd, it keeps getting bigger the farther up you go. Mensa has twice as many male members as female, although I thought that number would have been even worse tbh
