You meet someone, maybe out with friends, or on the internet where ever.

They are nice looking, and you seem to get along.

You are college educated and have a white collar job. Teacher, engineer, etc. They, never went to college, don't really want to, and work in a blue collar job, Bartender, cashier, waitress.

(I am asking a question here, not judging anyone who has or doesn't have a college education. So don't write me and accuse me of being some kind of snob (or worse) etc.)

Are they long term relationship material?

Really, not a serious question.....their job should have no relevance. If they're a good person then they're a good person no matter what they do for a living and I have a Master's degree.

Your degree or high level or high paying job doesn't make you a better person nor does it make you more pleasant or a more compatible mate. If you make more money you're still just as capable of being an asshole or person of poor ethics as somebody without the degree.

Not as simple as it seems.

It isn't so much about formal education as it is about intellectual curiousity.

Is she/he a knucklehead?

You prefer deep discussions about politics, science, the arts and he/she prefers tractor pulls.....

You get the point.

Again, the formal education part is NOT the issue, the question is, does the career path reflect an overall theme, and if so, does that theme make this a dealbreaker for a LTR?

Not an issue for a hit it and quit it thing, but if it is serious, it can have significance.

good point.

And you will have to take the time to find that out. Don't just assume that because someone has a degree they are smart and like deep conversations and if they don't have a degree than they only like to talk about pro wrestling.

      2026 Charlotte FC Thread

      Was at the game and NYCFC honestly outplayed CLT the whole way.  Khalina and Zaha carried the team.  Zaha's wife on IG making it sound like he's gone come July. They're going to have to pay him or find a big time replacement because the team looks like pretty lost without him.

      No one's saying LaMelo has no blame we're responding to you acting like he's the reason they lost. The scapegoating and blaming the teams woes on his personality is where it's like Cam Newton all over again. It was a failure on multiple fronts and primarily Lee's. Dude said ON AIR pregame that they had to protect the paint and if that was his gameplan going in he couldn't have botched it more. As the commentators said Ball's a rhythm guy and Orlando was preventing him for getting any kind of flow going. I'm a normie watching on TV and said they needed to bait them into fouling to combat that. They didn't even try until the 2nd half when it was too late. I think it's fair to expect the star to overcome whatever but LaMelo was not the problem in that game and he's not what is holding the team back. He's the only reason they're flirting with being a great team. I kinda put the center play on Lee too. Moose is great until he's up against a big who can body him. We've always known that and that's what Kalkbrenner is for. I don't know if it would have changed much but Kalkbrenner should have had more minutes than him.  And moving forward with the center position, I just think it's the time to trade Diabate while his stock's high and that's not an indictment of his game. He's like an evolved combination of Biyombo and PJ. He's a great rim protector and the strength issue is just what you're going to have to deal with if you want that. But Kalkbrenner is perfectly capable of protecting the rim and we gotta get away from the undersized centers or it'll always be a problem for us.

      Honestly its why that Jalen Coker grab was a big deal.  I'd been warming up to the idea of a sadiq pick and was adamantly against a receiver...but this altered my train of thought.  I mean For instance, Cade Otton signed for 3 yr 30 mil contract...thats not dramatically different than the rookie payscale for #19 (4 year 20 mil with 5th year option), however you KNOW otton is decent...no clue if Sadiq will be anything.
