How do u socialize with people on two lower IQ distributions?

I'm 130 IQ and I'm sure I could be in MENSA, I don't think I'm particularly a genius.

However I'm in a country where the average IQ is 84.
I would love to socialize with average people here but It seems is kind of dificult.

Any advice?

>> No.10572604

Move somewhere where you can find like-minded people.

College with a high-pass filter, bigger city, another country, work in research, whatever.

130s can socialize with 110s. 100s is hard. 84s is miserable.

130 is marinally higher than what the united states was on track for having a average of in 2003. the average iq could have been 115. but it dipped lower come 2001. it was 112 at the high point. the thing is while 115 found like its a fair distance from 130 its not. the difference between some african countries and india is 10 points

And I tell you what, socializing with people from all walks of life made me a significantly more competent employee than my STEM colleagues, who can't hold a conversation without sperging out massively.

It's more like you expect more out of a conversation with them if you don't know they are low IQ at first. This leads to a series of lowering your expectations with every response via a heuristic binary search method.
Typically if they are below 100 they just give you immense uncanny valley sensations. They look human, but clearly something is off.
You almost never gain anything from a conversation with them, unless they are just a means to an end.

Immigrating won't make it any easier to go up to a stranger and have deep meaningful conversations with them. If you can't do it with anyone where you live, then you probably won't be able to do it with anyone anywhere. Furthermore, you've probably met and talked to people that have a higher iq than you anyway. IQ literally has nothing to do with being able to hold a conversation, given how fucking terrible you seem to be at having a meaningful conversation despite your high IQ.

I think you forget something. Peoples don't want to talk they wanna be assured about their opinions that they have. It's easy to speak with people if you know their view which is based a lot of times from television. If you want to find someone who gives you something intellectual you need to find a person who is at same level of thinking or be able to change your point of view and adapt for while.

>You've probably met people with higher IQs than you

This would made sense if the average in the nation wasn't 84. You see, I usually (and only) interact with the highest socio-economic status people in the region, ergo; I would had knew if I met someone even close to me (intellectually speaking).

>IQ has nothing to do with having meaningful conversations

It does. Interests vary on your ability to grasp concepts. Actually, we naturally tend to gravitste topics that demands us intellectually. You can extrapolate the rest.

>Moving out of the country wouldn't work

I agree on this partially. But, opportunities of interpersonal persuit in a higher average environment are always welcome.

I don't think 130 is that impressive, it's what I have (found via actual testing years ago) but thanks to mental illness I don't think I'll do a whole lot.

The people who have real trouble are 140s and upwards, actual geniuses. People like this practically need handlers and they usually get them some way or another as lab assistants, understanding teachers or good wives.
I'm told I'm very good at speaking to children, don't know where I got this ability but it's probably related to being ADD and having an utterly childish sense of humor. I just revert to being the silly dickhead I secretly love being.

Only advice I can give you on speaking to dumb people is stuff you or others reading would already know, but just in case. Also feel free to add if you know anything.

- Don't reveal "powerlevels", if they're talking about stuff you think you know a lot about just let them go at it instead of really trying to wow them or impress them. Bumble along the conversation at their level and nod and smile and "yeah ah-huh". They won't appreciate you nerding out and will probably just secretly resent you for it. Unless they're asking you directly in which case they'd like it and tell their friends you're smart, but don't overdo it. They're easily impressed.

- Don't try to initiate socializing with them if you don't have to. It's better to be seen as silent and in your own thoughts than some irritating smartass, this relates to the first point.

- Dumber people (once again if you have to interact with them a lot) can appreciate you acknowledging their usefulness for things. Laugh at their jokes if you can, or if one did you a favor then publicly appreciate them for it in front of their peers if it's appropriate.

Just thought of another one.
Don't be afraid to acknowledge the greater understanding of a topic somebody else might have, especially if that person might have an ego and they're also smart people in their own right and have social credibility in the circle you're trying to move into.

We're not in some gang war where you get up the ladder by whacking the guy above you.
Plus if the smarter guy dislikes you, they'll tell their peers (who respect their opinion) you are an ass and then you're fucked.
I've just flatout said on occasions "I try and know about this stuff, but you seem to know a lot more than me".

To give an example. I was at an art show a few years ago and speaking to one of the main event artists. She had realistically painted a number of weapons and I identified the AK model she used and she remarked on me knowing that kind of shit. I found that I was probably sounding like a wanker when I corrected her on what some models were, so I pivoted to "but I couldn't paint them like this, look at the attention to detail where you've made sure safety is in the right position (a mistake artists always make), the muzzle break is on correctly and [other details]".

So now shes the expert and I've acknowledged that in a way other eyes might not see.

Then when she spoke later she publicly appreciated my remarks, but I very easily could have fucked that up by looking like a /k/ sperg.

Details like this are tiny, but they matter.

Can't relate on IQ aspect, however I can tell you that you don't need to socialize. Solitude is magnificent, you can communicate, take care of life business and above all just be kind. Try to sustain kindness by not thinking you are too superior in comparison!

Also exchanging ideas is kinda socializing, well kinda let I not go overboard and ruin it for me! lol

I dont know if it counts but I was abused at 12 and I developed PSTD, then I was taken to a psychiatrist and she drugged me with risperidone, then my mom took me to another one until one managed to stabilize me, after a few years and a fucking load of tests he diagnosed me with aspegers. he made a report(?) about me being highly intelligent and told my mom to worry more about my social skills...sorry I'm still learning english.
I managed to get in decent University by reading Wikipedia and watching YouTube videos for a few years.

regarding to the topic of this thread, I tend to separate my friends in categories, ones are good for hanging out, others for discussing theories, playing video games, puns, etc. you should accept that not everyone is interested on every topic even dumb people can offer you a lot of insight in a certain field of expertice, it will save you a lot of fustration and in the end everyone is a sperg in a way or another, try to make more friends and appreciate them for what they are and allow yourself to have mindless fun.
