Search Results: career choice

i m a sucker for beauty and youth as most men are and i choose to date younger as my career may require more post graduate education (so settling down and children wouldn't be realisty in the next couple years and id prefer chidren with women in her 20s.) but i find older women so much more pleasant to deal with as they know how to carry themselves in a certain way and understand people. younger women i refer to are in their early to mid 20s and older would be around my age, 28 plus.

I've dated both and mostly early 20s as of recent. but they just can't make me feel the way a women around my age can. asyou get into the older market, optiions do slim in terms of well roundedness. if she's very nice she prob has kids or is divorced (baggage) if she is super hot at 33 and single, she probably has a serious personality flaw too hard to overcome for most partners or slut or golddigger is always possible. it seems the option filled younger market comes with the price of immaturity.

yes i m sorta lost. a balance would make me happy but thers always a big issue with either.

what would you suggest or advise?

So I have a two roads I can take in my career either use the contacts from my former work and finish school and work abroad at least 6 months out of the year all over te world in remote drill sites and military contracts. Making very good money to were I could buy anything I've ever really wanted but be away from home for over half the year
or I can finish school not use my contacts and stay state side not working at lucrative jobs. Yes be stable but not "let's go on vacation to Italy" for no reason sort of money. I started thinking what if I ever married how would this choices effect it. Yes I'd be wry wealthy give her and my kids anything they'd ever want. But miss out in their life's and I'm sure she would be lonely which leads to other issues.

So this might be a bit of a novel- I'm 24, a guy, and I'm an engineering technician. I have high astigmatism and really bad farsightedness, and cannot pass the peripheral vision portion of the driving exam to save my life. I'm 5'7" and in shape but thin (I bike to work from my condo any day it isn't storming out and play in my company's soccer league, do light workouts and go hiking all the time). On top of other things, being unable to drive (and not being able to do anything about it) is super frustrating. It's usually a total dealbreaker for most women I talk to. my shortness is sometimes a problem too. Having a rough family life and constantly working full-time while commuting via bus or train to full-time engineering school just to pay my tuition and bills left me pretty much no time for relationships the past 5 years. I'm out now, at a job I like, in a great area and have a nice place and a short bike commute to work. I should add that in a virgin- a couple girls I wasn't attracted to have wanted to sleep with me but I know that I wouldn't be happy dating them (mostly personality traits or hygiene or weight issues), so I've declined. So no experience in the bedroom department either. Keeping in-shape and having a goal, and taking care of my appearance and health are important to me, so I'm not going to settle for less in a woman. I'm not complaining about my situation, I'm actually super lucky to be where I am in my career and personal life, and to still be alive in general. I just want a couple honest opinions here so I can make a choice. Should I stop pursuing a relationship casually and save myself grief and wasted time, money and effort? Or should I hold out for "her?"

Hi. I have had quite a shitty life till now, but I managed to picked up myself from the ashes, and things are looking good. I am quite obsesive and socially awkward. Iam a scientist and have the choice to be a millionair, however I dont think I will be a good boyfriend then because my work consumes me. Do you think I should rather persue a relationship or a career? Perhaps both but I want to be the perfect guy for her, whoever she may be.
