I just turned 30 a few month ago and feel like i should of have a wife and kids and a career by now. All I got is a dead end job no money and no GF.
College is my lottery and going back is the best decision I ever made. I just could not see my self treading water waiting for one shot to be a manager 15-20 years from now. To tell the truth I do not even want it in the first place.
My goal for now is to get college done and try to get out as much as I can. I feel like i have 5 years to find that special someone or it never going to happen .
To be honest, I'm happy it's turned out that way though. I've got a good career, I feel like I'm doing well financially, and most importantly I'm a lot more mature than I was when I was in my 20s.
All of my friends who got married in their 20s are now divorced or getting divorced. It's not an ideal time to settle down when you're still going through a lot of internal growth and change.
If you live in or near a city, I'm sure you'll be able to find a professional, career-driven woman who is in the same boat as you. I'm just starting to casually look around, myself. But it's hardly a dire situation and I'm willing to bet it's a little more common than you might think.

That is only if you have a career I for one do not so talking to a woman that has a good job and her life more together is not an option for guys like me. It is like what to I bring to the table if a woman makes 2x/3x more money then me?
All I can do is work on getting college done work on myself and keep moving forward and forget the haters.

Personally I would agree but many female members here will tell you that "most" there educated successful female friends are married to lowly construction workers and other lowly skilled and paid men. It's a new trend I guess. I typically only see it amongst ugly women.
I.e.
You could either have a rosie odonnel looking woman that makes 150k, or a jessica alba that makes 20k...

As a career minded gal myself, I am borderline on this idea. If the guy is showing he's career minded and/or improving himself such as going to school, then I am happy to give him a chance. If he's ok with a dead end job and only works for beer money, then no.

True
The worst part of my job is People treat me like I'm stupid and uneducated.
I do not believe the woman on that woman will date a guy if he just was a job he show up to and goes home.
I am sure that telling woman you love making some else rich is not a panty dropper. I am all for people making money go for it but If can never get out of poverty or move up .
My fiance was 40 when we met...lifelong bachelor. Had girlfriends, but never anybody he wanted to get serious with, live with, etc. Said he never met anybody he wanted to marry until he met me.
