I'm not very smart...apparently...I've been called dumb many times...so I guess I must be.

Plus my IQ is around 85.

How do I work around not being smart if it is not a desirable trait in relationships?

Or is it not true that intelligence is particularly undesirable?

Do other traits that I may posses make up for my stupidity?

Or, is being dumb the death knell in relationships?

No.

You just have to be confident.

No ... stupid people seek other stupid people. They reproduce all the time and make little stupid people.

Yes... us more intelligent people like someone who can at least hold a conversation while we try and get them to bed. We don't want them to smart or they can see through the BS.

Wait, are you saying smart people like stupid people because they're easier to have sex with?

But, what if stupid people mate with smart people in order to produce smarter offspring?

Maybe we're tricking you, holding you hostage to your sexual urges, and advancing our own stupid agenda?

Screw what your IQ is. If you can sound like you're not a retard, you'll be fine.

I wouldn't date a fool.

I am certain that there are women out there who would though.

The Wechsler Intelligence Scale classifies an IQ Score of 85 as borderline intelligence which is also considered to be borderline mental retardation.

I doubt this is you, OP.
