I am in college, and I am going to be very successful. However, my boyfriend is 25 and has just been working since high school, and was actually out of work completely for three years. I don't care that he isn't in college, so you are right that women do find men who don't have fancy diplomas attractive. He is back on track and is going to vocational school soon, but even if he never did that I would still love him.
That is very refreshing to hear. I wish you both luck.

Men do not care one iota about a female partners' diploma and income. Those are the first things that many single upwardly-mobile women look at when determining a man's desirability. I could understand a woman not wanting a guy that's dependant, chronically unemployed and not looking for work, etc., but there aren't enough single, "intelligent" (whatever that means) professional types to go around for all of the women with unreasonable, impossible-to-meet standards. They say that they won't become a man's property, but in reality they want to sell themselves to the highest bidder - and the irony is that many will fail to even get any bids at all.

Often, the problems are that they are either nasty, or are unaware of, or unwilling to learn, how to be attractive to the opposite sex. Sometimes, it's several of those factors.
Breukelen advocaat Reviewed by Breukelen advocaat on . Enough!!! We're ALL attractive in some way, what's yours? Enough with the stupid 'stroke my ego because no one is stroking my cock atm' threads. If you don't know whether you are attractive, YOU AREN'T. Because self-confidence is the only place to start, and a physically hot person with a shit attitude, or who is too fucking insecure, FORGET IT. So everyone has to put down something about them that they think makes them a good dating prospect. And I don't want to see any more fucking pictures of teenage boobs. :wtf: Seriously. That Rating: 5
