Dating someone who makes me feel inferior

I constantly feel inferior to my boyfriend due to his intelligence, wealth, and accomplishments, making me feel like the 'lamest little boring girl'.

What I wish I knew
"I wish I knew he didn't feel the same way about me, that he valued me for who I am, not just my 'chill' nature."
If I could tell you one thing
"Don't settle for a relationship that makes you feel inferior, you deserve to be with someone who admires and appreciates you."
