I can't say I consider myself particularly intelligent, so as long as they can hold a conversation, share similar views and sense of humour, they are kind, generous and not self obsessed then who knows.
@SStarfish What if it’s not out of it being condescending but they just have talents different than your own? Like say you’re the one who’s great at math and science.. but they’re better at cooking, and physical things.. so you see everyone calling you the more “intelligent” one by default?
I don't considered myself that smart but apparently, I am to some people. As long as we can have fun and enjoy each other presence, I dont care about intelligence that much.
