Depends. Smart people tend to be more comfortable with computers or books than with people, so their social skills suffer. Smart people may also tend to be introverts who by definition prefer NOT to follow the crowd, so it would be difficult for them to find common ground with most people who exert so much effort towards being/remaining 'in the know' on many things. I actually asked myself this question once recently. Look up 'Asperger Syndrome' on wikipedia. Lots of great info on that.

Yes, I think its true. Mostly people who are always thinking and learning would have a harder time relating to others. I'm at least fairly smart still and I have a really hard time relating to people most of the time. When I tink I'm being interesting and am thinking of something that interests me others just think the info is weird mostly. Maybe they are right. We are blind to our own issues mostly.

It sometimes is, but it doesn't have to be. At my school people think you are smart if you act like you know everything and those people generally have less friends because they think they are so cool that most people can't stand their company. However, there are many smart people at my school who have tons of friends, they just aren't thought of as smart, though. They are thought of for their personality.

It was said that some big names like Mozart, Einstein and Van Gooh, (i dont know if you have heard of them but ) were very lonely and isolated people, I beleive a couple of them even ended their lives by killing themselves . And there were more names than that, so maybe you got a point and your on to something big !

is it that smart people are lonely or is it that lonely people are smart? think about it the greatest geniuses didnt have friends but look how far they went? does gravity ring a bell?

well i dont know whether they are lonely, but i certainly know they are rather reserved and like to spend their times with people that eager to get to know them.
shy and afraid to open up is basically the reason why they will eventually become lonely,and thats the reason why they keep burying themself to books and intelligent stuffs, i guess.

Some of us get a little tired of the old "sex, drugs and rock & roll" conversations. We find it difficult to equate with a beer drinking couch potato.

Trying to learn more, more and more, and simply ignoring social relationships, does this seem to be SMART? No indeed.
