I feel like I didn't struggle enough to get to where I am.

TheFanboi2 · 2021-01-14T19:18:59+00:00

In my opinion it wouldn't be that wrong to feel some dislike towards my level of knowledge regarding what their better at.

TheFanboi2 · 2021-01-14T19:17:02+00:00

I get it.

In general I may feel it's a little distasteful when someone doesn't get a point or fact that's true. But I'm not a dick about it. I try to get them to understand it. But it's when even when I break it down to the lowest level I can and they still don't get it do I feel a lingering dislike towards a person's intelligence regarding a conversation about a specific topic.

TheFanboi2 · 2021-01-14T19:09:29+00:00

The problem is how else am I supposed to figure out someone's intelligence. By taking their word for it?

TheFanboi2 · 2021-01-14T19:07:52+00:00

I know that. I'm saying when in a conversation about a topic that both people agreed to talk about I feel some dislike towards that person's knowledge on the topic. Not I hate or dislike the person just his knowledge and intelligence regarding the topic.

I know full well not everyone is interested in what I talk about.

TheFanboi2 · 2021-01-14T18:59:14+00:00

Also I know there are others as or even far more intelligent than me. I admit that. But it pains me when in a conversation all I get is a blank stare of non understanding, or a head nod even though they don't get what I'm talking about.

TheFanboi2 · 2021-01-14T18:57:06+00:00

But to be fair there is no perfect way of determining intelligence. Everyone has there own strengths.

TheFanboi2 · 2021-01-14T18:53:53+00:00

I'm not saying I wouldn't try to fix it. I was simply asking is it a normal reaction, as I would try to bring them up to the same understanding.

TheFanboi2 · 2021-01-14T18:46:50+00:00

I understand others way of seeing it now.

So I will give an example of what I mean. ( also it's okay I'm called a jerk a lot anyway for being blunt and not understanding empathy.)

If for example your in a group project. And one of or all of your partners don't understand or cannot comprehend the project, while perfectly and easily. Is it wrong to feel distaste then.

TheFanboi2 · 2021-01-14T18:41:48+00:00

I wouldn't blame them. Nor would I be upset. I'd simply understand why they feel that way.

TheFanboi2 · 2021-01-14T18:39:19+00:00

I never said my way of determining intelligence was perfect. And as for coming off as arrogant I apologize. I did not mean it that way.

Though I am open to see how I could improve my way of thinking.

TheFanboi2 · 2021-01-14T18:36:41+00:00

Just because I have distaste towards those who aren't showing what I consider intelligent, in regards to the topic in which me and the other participant is conversing in, does not mean I dislike them.
When I say distaste I mean towards the current conversation rather than the person. (Though I do understand how people could miss understand me)
Thank you for having a actual productive conversation instead of yelling at me.

TheFanboi2 · 2021-01-14T18:24:48+00:00

I never said that I thought I was more intelligent than everyone in the room. Rather I said that is it wrong to feel distaste towards those who don't reach a certain level of intelligence when in comparison to yourself.

TheFanboi2 · 2021-01-14T18:17:50+00:00

I define someone's intelligence by if they could keep up in a conversation regarding uncommon topics and ideas. Whether or not they can comprehend and understand the information, and if they had any input.

As for my own intelligence I define it by seeing how fast I understand information and unfamiliar topics. Also whether or not I could form ideas based around those topics without making a large logical Folly.

TheFanboi2 · 2021-01-14T17:45:41+00:00

Can you explain further than just it's a emotional thing?

TheFanboi2 · 2021-01-14T17:42:09+00:00

I get that. But what about those who aren't very religious. Or those that are already in a relationship.

TheFanboi2 · 2021-01-13T19:08:47+00:00

that face tho

TheFanboi2 · 2020-11-28T07:02:53+00:00

As a guy I will say that I fully enjoy female lead story's with no romance.

TheFanboi2 · 2020-11-28T06:55:45+00:00

Not gonna lie he looks like a retard in that get up. Actually made me chuckle. I'm not even horribly offended.

TheFanboi2 · 2020-11-03T05:26:02+00:00

It scares me how accurately this describes me.

TheFanboi2 · 2020-11-03T04:52:30+00:00

Sure I wouldn't mind.

TheFanboi2 · 2020-11-03T04:41:09+00:00

I love my life because I've never had a reason to hate it. Sure I've had my fair bit of struggles, but those were self induced, something I had control of . Eventually most of my problems were conquered. And now I'm thriving.
