the intrinsic emotional make-up of women with an over-developed intellect is flawed, and as a result their ability to choose compatible partners or sustain lasting relationships is impeded
Dr Robert Holden, author of Success Intelligence, is at the cutting edge of psychological relationship research. He explains: "IQ is all to do with your head and the meeting of minds. You could have two incredibly intellectual sparky people who know how to stimulate each other with a fantastic debate, but this in no way means they have what it takes for a long-term relationship.
"To have a successful relationship, you have to have a developed EQ which is emotional empathy and a respect for each other's feelings."
So why is it that intellectually smart women get derailed when it comes to relationships?
"It happens because the logic of emotions is different to the logic of thoughts,"
"With a high IQ, we are often so headstrong that we over-ride what our heart is feeling. We essentially silence our emotions.
