There was day the jews attacked Pearl harbour .
All the pilots yelled torah torah torah.
They were on a scroll that day.

Wow, a Star Trek fan who can't figure out how to get along with a woman. I never thought I'd see the day...
I am normally very unassuming (you should be able to tell this from my other posts if you care to look) and even the writing patterns I use on this board are completely different then when I write a research paper. I do this because I learned early on that people hate intelligent people as a rule as it raises their own insecurity, they only see the positives.C Dick said:
I don't really want to give away my identity for obvious reasons but I can say that I have done a Doctorate in the hard sciences and it was easy for me (the science was, not all the other crap).
My IQ can vary depending on the test, and many IQ tests are really just testing knowledge and training. In the military aptitude test I took they told me that I scored equivalent to a 180 but I was only 18 and that test is not age adjusted; which had the recruiters eyes bulging considering that I had marks in the 60's in high school. I got in the 160's consistently on an official Mensa book I bought one time. I also have done up to a 170 test for matrix tests, which I think are the best form of IQ test. But like all forms of tests you can get better at them with practice. I don't believe IQ tests are representative of an individuals intelligence though, I think they are good for populations though.
I am not trying to get street cred on here I was asking for help and lo and behold I got it! Lots of good responses here.
You know what? She is the smartest female I have ever encountered and she is good for me. Me even asking these questions of myself is evidence of that. She has previously admitted that she has issues and even offered to go on a kind of retreat to sort them out. She also found out about my hobby and even said she could deal with it to me.
I suppose we are both used to being smarter than everyone else and therefore in control. But we are also both isolated for the same reasons.
I don't want a pet I suppose. And she is still very young, I did not allow her much slack at all. I was too harsh. But she does piss me off and we will have to talk about that. It will be a series of battles and she will eventually win the war, but that is as it should be.
So I am going to quit with the MP and SC scene. I will have relapses I am sure but I plan to recondition myself over the next 6 months or so.
As far as we go, both need a little more time to heal but I will play the game as much as I have to and we will get better together.
Goodbye you demented maniacs!
The guy with the 180 IQ gets tripped-up with a simple homonym. You're looking for the word "than", not "then" - but then I guess you're just changing your writing patterns, eh? Nonetheless, here's a link to a simple grammar lesson for you - http://grammartips.homestead.com/than.htmlMakeItSoNumber1 said:
You need therapy. You may have a high IQ (and I do question this - your grasp of logic as demonstrated in your posts here is mediocre at best), but your EQ is in the toilet. As someone with a background in clinical psychology, you're fairly neurotic. You have a lot of fixed and rigid beliefs about yourself, others and the nature of the way things are that do not serve you well at all. I don't think its your IQ that turns people off, it's your personality.

Wrong on both counts. ( in my opinion, not that your opinion has no merit, and any inference in that direction is neither implied nor intended)
Harper posts as GB and this guys style is not at all like TQM.

yeah maybe. he is definitely out there. He would make a good security officer on star trek.LancsLad said:Wrong on both counts. ( in my opinion, not that your opinion has no merit, and any inference in that direction is neither implied nor intended)

I'm going to leave my post above - however I did not see what you wrote above until now, and it changes my tune about you. I thought you were pretending or exaggerating a lot of your issues, but after reading this, I have more empathy for you to the point where I'll actually apologize for the "pot shots" that I took at you above.MakeItSoNumber1 said:
To be perfectly clear, you are highly rigid in your thinking - and the "logic" that you attempt to apply to human relations will not serve you well at all. You do need therapeutic help to address the issues you have identified above about yourself (and I do agree with them). Until you begin to work on your own issues, any suggestions about how you should behave or what you should do will be generally useless to you.
I hope she did give him the upper hand. (right to his head and knocked some sense into him) Nobody who thinks they should have the upper hand should be in a relationship. Relationships include compromise and sometimes just letting the other have their wishes and making nothing out of it.

Normally jade, i read your heartfelt kind of posts and accept them as read, well intentioned but perhaps not my view.
on this though I must comment.
being the contrarian that I am, and one who loves to point out PC inconsistencies I would just like to ask you your position on demestic violence.
You seem, at least in the past, to be one of those who oppose physical violence within a relationship , yet in this case you fall into the trap that many do.
you seem to think it is okay to make light of a physical attack on a partner to emphasize a point, so long as it is the female striking the male.
interesting that you can rationalize the difference. Must be that I am not as advanced because I see the issue of partner ( domestic) violence as going both ways.
