In our opinion, smart people don’t have a lot of friends. We think that clever people are the ones with the friends. Clever people are usually really funny and people like funny because it makes them happy. Who doesn’t love to be happy? Smart people are really good at school. We think that people become smart because they are not good with their social skills. If they are really awkward around people, they usually tend to stay away because they don’t like that “awkward” feeling so they become good at what is usually an individual thing which is school. People like Charlie face challenges every day. People bother him so much that he doesn’t know the difference between an insult and a complement. If people made fun of Charlie and started laughing at him, he would think that the people are laughing with him. I would have to agree that smart people have challenges. We are not talking about the challenges that they face at school, We are talking about the problems that they have with their peers and the public. They challenge themselves with being social and stepping out of their comfort zone. In some cases, people are trying to push them away but if you are getting pushed away, you are trying to be friends with the wrong people. Smart people tend to think that they are being pushed away when in reality, they are not. It doesn’t really help if you are smart with finding friends, being witty is the key to getting friends because once again, witty means that you are being funny. We believe that smarter people set higher expectations of themselves then people like Charlie do. Setting these expectations brings up the challenge of living up to what you set out to be.
