I wonder: if your IQ goes up then does your EQ go down? I scored high on IQ once (gifted/genius) but my EQ was low (I think they said I had high difficulty understanding emotions, I forget the lowest category now). I am constantly misreading people and their emotions, and making up my own scenarios on what they are thinking about me or how they see me. I am often convinced people hate me, just because of something they may have said or did. Very often I feel like people are avoiding me, or like they don't want me around. I've come to realize that I'm trying to read other people's minds and thinking I can be in their heads! Logically of course, all of this is completely absurd!
