Intelligence and mental agility often represent one of the main pillars of couple compatibility. When partners have similar mental inclinations and interests, they find it easier to understand each other and it gives them more common ground for meaningful conversations.
Communication is the heart of intimacy, and when two people have nothing to talk about, their relationship starts to degrade. You don’t need to measure your IQ or compare your educational degrees to discover if you are intellectually compatible – take this ‘Are we intellectually compatible’ quiz and find out everything you need to know.
