'I made him too insecure': Guy dumps girlfriend after she scores higher on IQ test

It's no secret that people can feel insecure in relationships. This can manifest in many ways, but when it comes to intellectual insecurity, sometimes there is nothing you can do to make your partner feel secure in their own intelligence. Perhaps it's all in their head, in which case, this person is too insecure to date. Whatever you do, do not dumb yourself down for this person. Or perhaps none of this in their head, and your partner really is not the brightest bulb. If that's the case, depending on how serious the situation may be, you might have to dump him also.

Here, we have a woman whose boyfriend kept on insisting that he had a higher IQ than his girlfriend, so much so that he forced her to take an IQ test one night. As you might expect, the result was not exactly what he had anticipated, and he wound up being far too threatened to continue the relationship further. She shared her side of the story via Reddit's r/MaliciousCompliance subreddit.
