My late husband was one of the most intelligent, well-spoken, interesting people I've ever met and he wasn't college educated. Tried it, but it wasn't for him. I've also worked with college graduates who are complete morons.
thats them, but just because a guy wants a girl to have a degree, doesn't mean that they want to live off of said girl haha
I'm 25 years old never have lived on my own and I know most 20 something's do live on their own if not their own apartment they have their own house by themselves. If not some who live with friends or a roomate all paying for rent.
I had told my best friend how I wanted my own apartment and my friend tells me "Why would you want your own place if you have it good at home? You have everything you could need for free - if you live out there you gota pay for everything".
I am an only child still living at home with both my parents. But come on at my age my mom had her own place, license, car, and job. I'm 25 and no job except my free magazine writing's, no license or car, and no place of my own.
I also know guys when it comes to dating expect a girl who has everything in order like these things. I got nothing going for me how will a guy like me if I got nothing to offer them? Yea I'm very loving and caring and stuff but ya know what I mean.
What to do?
What to do? How about go to school and get your license?
I would NEVER date a woman that didn't have a license and was 25. That just screams red flag, couple that with the fact that you still live at home and don't have a job and it seems like you are just going to be a child forever that some man will have to take care of. Just like women don't want guys with the "Peter Pan Syndrome", men don't want a woman that will just be more of a drain and burden than actually contribute to the household. I stayed at home until my mid twenties and then moved out and finished my bachelor's. It's not so bad that you are living at home, its that you are not doing anything with your life that's a turn off.

Well I guess the third time is the charm because here I am. You come off as very arrogant and if I was the hiring manager and detected that in you(I am somewhat intuitive), then I would hire anyone, but you. Maybe you will have an advantage in NY since I guess that is where you are from, but you are also competing with thousands of other people. If you decide to leave NYC, you will be in for a shock as being from NY does not grant anyone privledges over anyone else. Also, wanting to stay home until you are 30 is not attractive either. I don't know of many women that would date a guy like that..js

I have a couple of guy friends who won't date a girl if she didn't go to college. One told me he could see me "dating down" meaning I'd be willing to date someone who didn't have a degree. To me, that's not dating down. Now, someone who couldn't carry on an intelligent conversation, regardless of educational status would be dating down.
As with everything else in dating, it's just a matter of preference.

Right. Clearly you're qualified to call me an idiot. You don't have a real job, you live at home, and you have a learner's permit. Plus you run your mouth on an internet forum with absolutely nothing to back up the crap you say. Cool. You sound like a real catch. While you might be hot sh*t in NYC, you'd be cold diarrhea anywhere else.
Yep... people get all snobby about college... all college means is that you were able to sit in class and regurgitate enough info to drop down on a test and be able to pass.... memorization, if you will....
You went to a bad college if they emphasized regurgitation over critical thinking.

Well, I've been with my woman for 2 years so...there goes that lol.
Oh, maybe you should come to New York City, and see if you can go to school full-time, while having a job that can pay for everything, you can't. Please find someone who has done that, and if you do, it's because they're on housing or, they have a roommate.
Until you live in New York City, as a student (who isn't dorming), who goes to school full-time, don't speak.
You should look at the link below, New York is #5 among state who have the most young adults living with their parents...
Oh, and according to the article, "The median income for young adults is $28,000. Seven percent of them are unemployed, and 70 percent of them are unmarried" in New York.
Let's see you live in New York with that kind of income.

Who needs a license, when the subway is right there? lol
Plus, gas prices are too high, I rather budget my money for bills, or other things I need to purchase.
