Younger women are not as severely impacted by unemployment issues like younger men.

True I'm also in my twenties like you, but it's important to remember not to wait until you make a million dollars or whatever target figure to date and have sex. Some "beta" males are known to do this, like "Oh I'll date once I get my degree" or "I'll get laid once I buy a house" or whatever. Follow your goals, but also try to date and do other things also.

Why don't you have a job?

I had one at the early age of 15.

I know I might be a bit biased here, but this is my theory. Younger women are not afraid and actually prefer to date more mature men these days. Younger women are much, much more sexual and open sexually then any other time in history, today. They want good sex and in fact demand it.

Looking back at my youthful twenties, I thought I knew what women wanted and thought I was great in the sack. Reality was, I wasn't, but did not see that until I reached some experience and maturity. Women, sexually are extremely complex, especially if you want to please them completely. And at 20-something, you just are not capable of understanding that, mush less doing it. If you're twenty, you think you are, but when you get to be about 32-40, you will realize you weren't.

I guess this is the case with some guys, whereas before the internet one was forced to go out and meet women and have dates and sex. Now lazy guys stay at home and make love to their hands.

You seem like a decent kid Adi....... keep on keeping on.

Go to school, get the job, more importantly focus on your personal growth and a little less on the amorous pursuits, that stuff will most likely fall into place...

You need to be interesting to get interesting, and your job isn't you..... you and another poster put to much emphasis and self-identity into your jobs.

I get it... I did it, but trust me, long range, you are far more than your career.

OK, my family also has this chip on shoulder attitude. They say "my son can't work as a server, cashier, mechanic, or any of those jobs. He's to sophisticated for that". Stupid, right .

I think a lot Indian people have a built in caste system bias, must have come from those bad teeth brits that ruled over there for so long.....

Oh so they want you to jump into a high profile job immediately. Hmmm...kinda don't blame them, better than working your arse for crap money when the boss is pretty much not much smarter than you.

Although low end jobs give you the experience to deal with all kinds of coworkers and political crap that goes on in companies.

Agree, I will have a professional life, personal life, and a social life as well. I'll maintain a good balance between the 3. My brother is a good role model of this. He has a GF, works hard as a student, and hangs out a lot with friends.

Yeah, it's best you get out on your own, because you will find most woman can't stand a Mommas boy. I'm just being honest.
