It's hard to go through life realizing no one has ever wanted or desired you, they've only ever been stuck with you, that you've always been a burden and nothing more.

When people make insulting remarks, it says more about them than it does about you. To say you're not their type because they only like intelligent people shows that person to be kind of a jerk themself. You don't have to buy into an opinion like that. Don't allow others to lead you to foolish conclusions. From your well written post it is clear that you have normal intelligence.
