Reply To: “I’m Worried That My Boyfriend and I Are Drifting Apart”

I loved Interstellar- but I also read history books for fun and am a huge nerd. I would not take that movie to my girlfriend and expect her to be thrilled. He is not smarter than you, he’s mean. And that is different. Running around telling your gf that she is stupid, and not “logical” is the weirdest way to harass someone, I have been in a relationship where a man insinuated that because I have emotions, I’m not as logical as he, emotionless. That’s ridiculous.

Emotional intelligence is intelligence. When you love someone, and you are actually “sweet, supportive” and fun to be around- you don’t take your bad moods out on your girlfriend and call her terrible names and tell her she is stupid and not logical.

This man doesn’t deserve to have a girlfriend.
