I think this is why some very high iq people aren't more productive... it's not easy to find high quality relationships.

  One can have too high of expectations of social interactions. I find this leads to angst. It's ok if this or that person is "only" a drinking after work friend, or this/that person is "only" a weekend friend, etc. While difficult, it is important to expand your social circle if you do not feel fulfilled. And, that can be difficult, but necessary.

    Indeed; I feel like potential is always there to expand comradrey into a proper friendship -- it's up to the individual to put his or herself on the table. Definitely not an easy thing to do. The rejection from such a measure is akin to romantic rejection.
