Well, people would maybe consider me dumb under certain circumstances. Bc I'm intentionally and deliberately not engaging with them. I KNOW this person isn't gonna be interested in hearing my whole opinion or isn't capable of engaging in open "thought exchanging." Closed-minded is probably the best word. Or I'm just genuinely not in the mood. It's easy to purposely put up a proverbial wall. People's opinion of me isn't something that interests me, so I can just leave them to their conclusions.

I feel like we can be seen as intelligent bc we're able to see things from so many different perspectives. This is why we're such good "idea people." We can also prepare well in advance bc we're able to perceive how changing one thing leads to this "new thing." So now we have a different problem that could crop up, so on and so forth. Steps ahead, I guess is the phrase. Oftentimes, things just suddenly make sense without having to apply much thought to it. It almost feels like puzzle pieces lining up. Like, i really know exactly what you mean. You dont have to explain something to me very much at all. I've already got all the details and implications of what you're describing, lmao.

I also feel like we excel at learning from past experiences. Things will feel like something that's happened before, and we've already planned for what we would do differently or can apply a previous solution seamlessly.

Because of intuition, we're able to learn from other people's experiences, too. Somebody can tell me something, and I feel like it happened to me. I swear, I feel like I can imagine exactly what they're saying. So when I encounter it myself later, I can pull from their experience quite easily.

Idk if any of that applies to relative iq points. I couldn't be bothered to take a test. I'm sure I'd be avg at best. I know it's very common for people to assume they're smarter than they are. So, I take that into account in my assessment of myself, lol.
