Should I finish school before dating?

[Anonymous]

I am 24M, I live with my parents. I have not always lived with my parents I decided to go back to school and I could not pay for rent and school at the same time. I work 3 days out of the week 12hr shifts, the other 4 days out of the week I work on college work or I try to work on college work anyway. I am really struggling with setting down and doing my college work. My plan is to continue going to study. com get all of the credits I can ( basic classes ) and transfer them to the online college WGU for my accounting degree. I am hoping I will get a good job with that degree. My problem is I don't like being were I am in life right now because I feel like I am too old to be where I am, living with my parents and going to college. The way things are going now I might not graduate or I will be around 26 by the time I do graduate.
Another think that is making me unhappy or should I say the main thing is the fact that I am single. I have been single for a while. Don't get my wrong I have had a few one night stands through out the years but I have always made an excuse for staying single rather saying "I am living with my parents" and even when I didn't live with my parents I made the excuse that "I am too broke to date". I am tired of being alone.
Here is my twisted logic

The main thing I want is a relationship or the availability to have one.

In order to have the availability I need not just money but financial stability, house, extra. You get the point. "Comfort".

So in order to be financial stability I have to go through college which is like scrapping nails against a chock board.

Options
Keep doing what I'm doing and plow through college, get an accountanting job, move out, then start dating?
Should I try to go to the doctor and get on aderal so I will focus on college and maybe get it done faster? Or would that not work?
Should I move out get a roommate, Which I don't want to do, Because I don't want to live with anyone else. But I might be able to afford it

Sounds like you kinda know when you said:

"In order to have the availability I need not just money but financial stability, house, extra. You get the point. "Comfort".

So college is just simply the price I am going to have to pay for financial stability. Also, it is just 2 year. I hate to vent/ complain. I know no one necessarily likes going to college. But I really don't like going to college, lol. But 2 year of this for financial stability might be worth it. I just hate the fact that I am going to be close to 30 before seriously dating.

Well, I am in college but it is in person, so I have the chance to meet people. Lots of people. That's the one thing that is really hampering you, because college campus is a great place to meet.

That said, you have to be comfortable, and it sounds to me like you know what it is going to take for you to feel comfortable.

Also, you probably know as well as I do. The dating pool shrinks as you get older. People my age the longer I wait the more of them get in relationship/ marriage. I mean I could date women a few years younger that me. But still the longer I wait the harder it's going to get.

dating is best in adolescence. Later, as an adult, you'll have to spend money, and women are already very used
