My boyfriend is so smart and i feel like he is to smart for me. Idk i feel like it's ruining our relationship lmaaaao
Hmm I doubt it but you two will be fine DW bout it
To the anon… I feel like the thing that might seem to be ruining your relationship could be your own insecurity about him being too smart for you.
I mean, if he’s a jerk about it, that’s one thing, even if he’s an accidental jerk. If there’s something that he does that makes you feel particularly stupid or like he’s holding his intelligence above you, no that’s not healthy.
But if it’s just you noticing and feeling really bad about yourself because of it, it may be just you. But that’s still enough to ruin a relationship over time. I think invigor is right to not worry about it… but that is easier said than done, ya know? The best thing, I feel like, would be to approach yourself about it. Some things just come easier to others. My brother picks up on math faster than I do. I can shoot out a million words on paper much faster than he can (aka I tend to write a ton when given the chance….as you may be able to tell). You could mention it to your boo, or you could not. Either way, face yourself about it and lift yourself up and support yourself. Ain’t nobody got time to put themselves down when no one else is. He’s dating you, isn’t he? It doesn’t matter how “smart” you are, where you graduated from, who your fam is, what kinda car you drive.. it’s you that matters. I think one big thing I’m trying to get at is that there are a lot of different ways of being smart. I know some people think that kind of answer is just a easy way out sort of thing, or a way to slap a “you’re worrying about nothing”/”make you feel better because it’s easier than the truth” sticker on it. But the truth is there is more to life and your personality than how well you understand politics or philosophy or how big your vocabulary is.
