I am a huge loser in love. My several conditions ruin it over and over again.
I had this question when I thought about David Foster Wallace. He was extremely smart. In his stories (which have parallels to his biography) he tells how he seduced women. He told something like the most popular and beautiful girl in school allowed him to touch her boobs. But there were way more examples.
I always hope that I am intelligent. But must smart people know how to approach the other gender? I don't think necessarily. Moreover this comparison is unfair because my conditions (psychosis and paranoia) ruin it. And these illnesses are not in relation to my intelligence. Not necessarily.
He explained how he slept with myriads of women in his stories. His success probably helped in that a lot. I am not exactly sure how he did it though. He also talked a lot about side effects which influenced his sexuality badly.
I can make women laugh. I can be a funny person. But becoming paranoid ruins everything in warp-speed. There are not many things as unattractive as being not fully sane. I think my last crush rejected me due to my poor social skills. But I have trained them a lot. I was even successful. But I am overthinking things in an unbelievable way. I will talk about that in another thread.
Do you think many intelligent people know how to be successful in love? Though DFW also told about some women where he had no success. He did quite insane things to make them fall in love with him. Allegedly he wanted to pay someone for the assasination of the husband of a woman who he was in love with...I know quite insane.
