Does having a college degree make you more interesting and dateable?

[Anonymous]

It can be depending on who you are around. I say that people often want and desire to date people of their level mentally if financially is imposable as sociology states about ascribed status and achieved status. The problem is most people, especially men don't have quality character and tend to shame women who value having an education especially if they don't themselves or respect their degree.

The only time it can make your dateable or should I say qualifiable is if a college degree just like an HS diploma is a must on your ideal partner. So anybody who doesn't value your education probably wants you poor but doesn't want you to be relying on them either. I find such people red flags because I am now a college student for the first time and always had my HS diploma. I always get made fun of for not attending college, now people say it doesn't matter to them and YET the same guys are mad you're trying to "golddig". Many of these people don't know what the hell they want. If it is that important to you, find a man who finds such importance and of your value. Your achievements should be valued, not necessarily the degree paper itself.

I personally think it makes you more interesting as an intellectual myself. But being "dateable" is often debateable. So anybody who says they don't care about it, test them and ask, what DO they care about? Because being around them enough would show you their true colors and mentality. If they can't see what personality and character you have, then they don't care about your personality, character, etc as they claim they do. They care about how they can benefit and use you.

Broadly I'd say yes.
But it really is a matter of literacy, emotional maturity/ability to relate from deepest to the surface level (s) - and to some extent emoyability

Women assume education and professional accomplishment mean something to men. It’s men that date and marry down not women. Women never date down. It means something to you. Men don’t want masculine women. They don’t care for brainiacs. Brainiacs won’t do tons of things ordinary women will do. Men want wives, they want women who will raise their children. They don’t want code word partners. They don’t mind a Robin to their Bat Man but two Bat Man gets crowded. So degrees automatically means problems to me.

An addendum I’m noticing an age gap here in posts younger men say yes older no. Younger men are more feminine then older men so if you want this type of male stay young

A college degree shows some, well, degree of commitment and intelligence. But unless that translates to social intelligence, which it doesn't necessarily do, it doesn't say much. I know many people without a degree with higher social intelligence than people who have one. However, If two people have a degree in the same field it signifies a common interest which could be a good place to start.

It really only makes you more interesting if your area of study is similar to theirs. Otherwise, you will be talking over their head, and you will be speaking in Sandscript, for all the sense it would make to them. But that isn't the only thing that would determine what makes you more interesting and more prone to be picked up. General interests and background are another couple of areas.

For me, no; it does not. Treating someone decently and with kindness is not something you spend money studying for in college, but should have learnt before you entered primary/elementary school. In fact, anyone waving that around in my face would be insufferable to me.

[Avicenna]

Not necessarily. A good personality and some intellectual curiosity (which isn't necessarily synonymous with having a degree) makes a woman interesting to me.

The degree does not make you more interesting. Intelligence makes you more interesting. Maybe if someone is intelligent they gravitate towards higher education and college degrees. Being interesting is nothing that they teach in college.

If the guy is a doctor lawyer etc.. Its a panty dropper.. Shell be well cared for easy life.. If its low end like construction worker.. they dont care. Girls also want emotionally mature men. Not boys with childish tantrums.. But when it comes to highest end degrees a lot don't care about emotional maturity, they want to be cared for so, its still a panty dropper.. 😂

It's not just the degree, but also the education, etc, It makes her more knowledgeable, and more interesting.

[zagor]

I hope that's not your purpose in obtaining one.

More intelligent, worldly people are usually more interesting, and to the extent that such people are more likely to have a degree I guess that would hold, but there are many counter-examples.

[Browneye57]

No. Guys don't care what you do for education, your job, your hobbies, they're irrelevant. What they want to see is your level of attraction and desire for THEM.

[kyleelyn199723]

Nope. It’s a degree. College degrees are accomplishments, not personality.

[007kingifrit]

no, infact i think it makes people stupid and narrow minded nowadays. college is just an expensive daycare for unwordly people (despite my many degrees)

[TheSpaceGnome]

Nope, not unless it's a degree in game development, then I'd be more interested.

[Ripper_E]

Not really. Some might say yes, but you can have a degree and still be a piece of shit.

[jerdanro]

I don't know. i have two. A B. S. in Micro Biology and an M. S. in Info Tech. It's made me more hirable. I don't know about datable or desirable.

Depends, personally I plan to be bread winner, but if she can use her degree to benefit the house than yeah.

[bamesjond0069]

Not for girls. Hell no. But i hear it does for men.

[rapfan107]
