>>20467994I know this sounds cringe but to be honest I don't believe I know anyone my age who is as intelligent as I am now, neither male nor female. When I was in my chuuni stage in early middle school, and before it, there were plenty of kids smarter than me though. I peaked in early highschool and have been slowly degrading since
Now that I think about it, the only exception is a girl who used to be my classmate. She was very competent, and I guess the smartest person I ever knew. We didn't interact much because its kind of intimidating when someone is smarter than you, so I don't have any affection towards her
I guess what I am really, truly, after in a partner is an equal or a close match, not someone who outclasses me.
