20 times people discovered their partners were not bright: 'She thought the Statue of Liberty was made of plastic'

There comes a time in everyone's dating experiences when you realize that the person with whom you have been spending time is a complete and total doofus. When this happens, you have three options. 

First, you can give them the benefit of the doubt. You let whatever silly comment they made slide, you try to explain why they are mistaken, and you move on. Sometimes, people simply do not know things because they have yet to be exposed to them. You taught your partner something. Isn't that a productive step forward in the relationship?

The second option is that you get ahead of this and you call it quits right then and there. With this option, you are saving yourself from further embarrassment or further infuriating circumstances in which you have to explain the ways of the world to your significant other again and again. But what if you're acting too rash and it really was just an innocent mistake? You have to be careful not to self-destruct based on a minor mixup.

The third option is the "ignorance is bliss" choice. Perhaps this person is so good-looking that they are worth ignoring these very serious flaws. Nine times out of ten, this is a horrible choice that will only lead to more conflict, but we felt that it was only fair to present all the options to you.
