I'll rock the boat, as usual.
My job is an intellectual kind of job. My colleagues are often brilliant. When we go out, the topics are diverse, and usually there is one moron who seems to know almost everything. I'm perpetually challenged in terms of my intellect in my job role vs my colleagues.
Frankly, I'm very happy just talking about shopping, the weather, and movies when I get home. That's not to say that I want to live with a dummy. I do like my girlfriends being smart, because it shows up in various decisions, actions, and day-to-day actions, but, at the moment at least, i don't necessarily want to talk deep at home.
That'll probably change when I retire, but for now, that's quite ok for me, as it has been for many years.
