When at a table with other people if you think you know something, stop and count to ten. By the time you finish the conversation will have moved on. If ask your opinion direct them to you BF or look to him to tell you what to say. Do these things often enough and you will start to notice people treating you like the "Dumb Friend" which will in fact reinforce your status as being dumb.

I love this so much, thank you!! Exactly the way I want people to see me, a dumb fat girl who lets her bf do her thinking for her. Perfect
Max_Lemont:
This one we will do for sure
BiteSize:
Ok, that’s actually Hot AF, not gonna lie.
In a lot of ways I am not keen on actually dumbing down (like kids shows and no reading), but, like, I kind of like the idea of counting to 10 if a thought pops into my head and referring to my boyfriend for things. ... But I think the driver for me there is more reinforcing - not so much that I am dumber, but that he is smarter? 😅
GrowingLoveHandles:
Instead of giving up reading all together, perhaps just magazines and websites in which the writing has no real thought — listicles, articles about hair color, makeup, recipes, clothes, any writing in which there is no real organization, just mindlessness.
BiteSize:
Yes! 🙌🏻
Megangivesup:
Oh I wasnt being clear sorry.
Which makes sense as I am dumb and am only good for eating and doing as I’m told.
I am not read books anymore that are for adults. I used to read a lot of like fanatacy and Sifi and all them have too many big words for me now.
I read magazines mostly fashion and food and I can read books for kids up to 8years old. I also colour a lot too.
Don’t worry I haven’t completely lost my stories, my bf will read me my fantasy books as bed time stories he just leaves out parts he thinks are too much for me and dumbs down th language as he goes, so I can understand.

Yes Megan is not smart enough to handle the news and it’s all too much.
I thought about letting her watch behind the news (a news show in Australia aimed at children) but it is still to adult and complicated for her.
Plus what does she need to know about current events? She eats, she sleeps she does as she’s told. Why fill her head with anything but fun colours and yummy foods. If anything happens she needs to know about I’ll explain it to her in a dumbed down enough way that she can understand.
I've spent, like, an hour trying to think of a worthy reply to this.
But I'll just post something inane, with nothing but my kudos.
At least, by replying, it increases the concentration of those wonderful words in those wonderful comments.
