Do you ever dream of being a silent person who will always shun human companionship? Would you prefer living in a countryside cabin, instead of a noisy city? Would you rather stick your nose in a book rather than throw your hands up in the air in some part somewhere? Do you hide when someone rings your doorbell unexpectedly?
Excellent, now if this sounds just exactly as you, I have good news for you. You are not antisocial. In fact, you just might be a genius.
So here are some of the few reasons as to why intelligent people are often quite;
Highly intelligent people tend to associate with fewer people and seek out social interaction less frequently. Interestingly, their life satisfaction goes up whenever they choose to live by this strategy that is really working for them. For those seeking happiness, then the ‘silent' life might be the way to go. They will always live in less densely populated areas so that they can have a good time for themselves.
They also found that happiness increases when a greater percentage of our social interactions are with our most dearly loved ones, as opposed to strangers, casual friends, or acquaintances.
Those people who are more intelligent and the capacity to use their intelligence well are less likely to spend so much time socializing because they are focused on some other long-term objective. In other words, that nerd who says they have better things to do than hanging out with friends is actually on to something.
The most intelligent people evolve past the need for very frequent social interaction. Instead, they always favorite some activities which do promote their advancement in the modern world, which tend to be more intellectually and economically based. We need interaction less than our ancestors did, so the most highly evolved human beings have ceased to prioritize it.
So just you know, the next time you opt to stay home instead of hitting the club, don't feel weird about it. Feel smart because you are definitely an evolutionary ground keeler.
