Ignorance is probably more the opposite of wisdom.

Someone can be intelligent, yet still be ignorant.

But it might not be wise.

Of course it does, the more intelligence you have the more of a ability to see negative.. as well as rather than looking at one aspect of a situation with negativity you can normally find multiple things negative about one thing

with intelligence you also gain the ability to avoid the negatives or at least understand them.

Being smart doesn't necessarily help you cope with your emotions.

The idea behind that is that it's harder to find intellectually fulfilling relationships if you're TOO intelligent, and that leads you to feel like you're always alone. That only applies to TRULY gifted people (IQs of like 180+) since there are plenty of people around with IQs in the 130-150 range.


do you actually believe the shit you're writing?


anyway, as "happy" and "intelligence" is not specified it's not possible to answer the question.
