Why Highly Intelligent People are Socially Awkward

Smart people can solve complex problems but completely bomb basic small talk. Their brain runs like a supercomputer analyzing quantum mechanics, then glitches on "how's your day going?" It's not a lack of intelligence—it's intelligence working against them in social situations. Psychology shows why high IQ doesn't equal social smoothness. Analysis paralysis freezes their responses because they see too many conversational options. They answer "how are you?" with actual honesty instead of the scripted "I'm good." They notice you paused 0.3 seconds longer than usual and spiral into overthinking mode. Their brain excels at finding patterns, so it finds them everywhere—even in meaningless social variations that don't matter. 🔔 Want more of this?
