Intelligence can complicate dating for men in several ways, per psychological insights. High-IQ individuals often overanalyze social cues, leading to hesitation or mismatched expectations (Psychology Today, 2024). They might seek deeper intellectual compatibility, filtering out casual connections, and appear aloof or intimidating to others. Emotional intensity from giftedness can also create vulnerability in relationships.

That said, it's not universal—many smart guys thrive by prioritizing communication and shared values over perfection. Intelligence is an asset if balanced with empathy. What's your take?
