@Dearme2_ Because the smarter you are, the harder it can be to deal with people who aren't smart, especially when many of those people are willfully ignorant. That is where we are in the world today, just a bunch of willfully ignorant mofos running around like it's ok or whatever. Its not.
@Dearme2_ Highly intelligent people are not necessarily loners. But some prefer solitude because they enjoy deep thinking, meaningful conversations, and focused work rather than constant social interaction.
Because the general population is unread, misinformed/uninformed about the world around them, and having conversations with them feels like mental agony. Higher IQ people can have far deeper conversations with a lot less words. You don't have to explain the basics of every topic to them. This cuts out a lot of BS and is more stimulating than explaining to a normie the basic introductions and backgrounds to things like historical events, music, philosophy, theology, politics, etc.
As a man,
1. Don't look through someone's phone.
2. Never ask couples why they don't have kids.
3. Avoid calls after 9 PM unless urgent.
4. Return borrowed items in equal or better condition.
5. Don't comment on someone's weight.
6. Let others exit before you enter.
7. If shown one photo, don't swipe for more.
8. Never pressure anyone to drink, smoke, or eat.
9. Whispering in a group excludes others.
10. Cover your mouth when yawning, coughing, or sneezing.
11. Don't use speakerphone in public.
12. If someone pays, offer to pay next time.
