ghost, intelligence has a lot to do with someone being interesting. People of a lower intelligence level are not likely to have made the connections between events that move a story from dull to interesting/surprising, and they are also not likely to have the meta-awareness necessary for deeper emotional or personal conversations. If I feel like I can't fully express myself to someone because they're not intelligent enough to understand most of the things I say, then that would obviously be unacceptable for someone you're hoping to live your life with. Likewise, I wouldn't want to be in a relationship with someone who was light years ahead of me in intelligence, because it would make me feel weak, confused, and bad about myself. I think the best situation is to find someone equally as intelligent as you are, but with different experiences, so that you both have a lot to teach each other, but both of you are also able to learn.
