Thats true. People will not see it that way. Thats why it should only matter with the individuals involved in the relationship. The problem with relationships are that people don't communicate with each other, and they let everyone outside relationshipd decide what they should do.

Now think about the single sistas in the workforce.

I know I get picked up by the bike messengers all the time. Not to knock them but I did go out with one. Guess where he took me? So place with a midday special. I didn't mind that. But after that we didn't have anything to talk about. His thing was when he could move in and stop working so that I can take care of him.

That is not cool move. I mean its hard enough out there without dealing with all that. :mad: :rolleyes:

Nobody said you can't start a love connection within these confines. Who knows what the future may hold!:D ;)

reddawn18 06-09-2004 08:39 PM

Zeta Ace-- you need to start that thread!

I've done the long distance thing before,so I have been down that road. I am not too sure if I want to go that route again.

Dag, how did this thread go from "Marrying Down" to "Blind Date"? :D

However, I do agree with LB1914 - the LD (long distance) thing does "kick rocks" though (or at least it did for me). :(

:o as I think about adding that experience to my online dating diary. :o

I hate to sound uppity, but I personally cannot see myself marrying someone who does not have at least a BA or BS. I am currently working on an MBA and I plan to obtain a JD in the future. My future wife does not need to have a Master's, but she has to at least have a Bachelor's. I am aware that there are plenty of people out there that are doing well financially without a college education. However, I need someone that I can relate to.

On the flipside of that, my mother got remarried last year. Her husband(my stepfather)only has a high school diploma. I think it is really up to the individual in the end. Additionally, in my parents' generation there were plenty of people that were able to have careers without having to attend college or any other additional schooling. These are different times and we have different lifestyles these days.

Yes, you do sound uppity.

I don't think the level of education a person has matters. What matters to me is the level of intelligence. I've known some highly intelligent people who never finished high school. (my father)

If you can relate to someone, they don't knock you for wanting to pursue advanced degrees and they can hold their own when in the company of your colleagues at different functions, etc. then that is what counts!! I have dated all types of men and the one thing I couldn't stand is someone with no intelligence and pissed off at me because I'm educated. When I graduated from college the boyfriend I had then actually told me he was jealous at my graduation!!

I am in love with a janitor and he is the best boyfriend that I have ever had. He owns his own business, has a nice house in a very nice neighborhood, owns 2 cars and 2 trucks and has a nice bank account. ;) I am pursuing a Masters and I can see myself with a doctorate someday. It doesn't matter to me that he has no degree because we converse intelligently and we can relate!!
