It seems that computer matching dating service might be what you need since you have very specific requirements. That would also eliminate having to deal with "friends" who would be critical of your dating criteria. No one can call you a gold digger unless you are sharing that info with your friends.
Maybe do a little less "sharing" and little more "searching."
Be forewarned that even an eventual match meeting all your criteria can go sour. A guy with a master's degree and great job one day can be an unemployed "over-qualified" job seeker the next. Also, there are no guarantees that your future perfect mate will
always have perfect mental and physical health as the years go by. Can you live with that?
Reba- nothing against you its the "over-qualified" person I got a beef with
and for all of you crying about being overqualified and not having a job.....
get off your soap box and get the freak down on your knees to scrub the floor, get into the fields and start picking the veggies/fruits, clean up soiled diapers at the nursing home. All of the jobs that require physical labor or simple mental work..... and still give people dignity is always hiring. There is never lack of not having a job out there. There are so many turnovers in many different areas. They don't give a crap what your resume looks like they just want to know if youre trust worthy, and can show up on time is two of the major issues they want to know as well as having a valid SSN.
MANY immigrants are doing that because too many of "overqualified" persons do think too high of yourselves. My point is... if I had to work for 5 dollars a hour until the next job came up instead of feeling sorry for myself typing away my sorrows at the local starbucks sipping 5 bucks coffee that I charged on my credit card.......on the 1,000 laptop I also charged on the credit card for... using the wifi
I do personally thank every single hardworking person that does everything no one is willing to do.
My father is one of those "overqualified" persons, he was a really high placed person in the companies he worked for. Those companies were brought out, 15 years later, he still refuses to get a job and my family has paid the price over and over again. Americans need to change their perspective and do what it needs to do to survive. SO I don't give a rat's behind if someone is not working due to school reason, taking care of ones family etc etc, LIFE does happen but being overqualified and being unemployment is telling me youre not willing to survive if it had to come to scrubbing the toliet etc. I know the industry, they don't give a fudge how you got there, they just need BODIES.
for some that have misunderstood where I stand- I do this criteria due to faster process of elimination. SIMPLE as that.
I do give people a chance when I start talking to people at first. I get the idea of how on the same page one can be with me, I just say bachelors degree or above because that is the type of people I tend to be able to communicate easily with Deaf people. If I was a hearing person I would not even have to say a bachelors degree or above because there are more and more hearing people out there that I can quickly eliminate which ones are not up to my level or even beyond my level like the guys on big bang theory lol those guys crack me up but back to the point.
Sadly, I only do this on deaf sites, not hearing sites. I've been too extremely frustrated with so many illiterate deaf men out there. One funny story: one said he was a Graduate student. I said which school are you going to now. He said he graduated from high school. Too funny but thats how bad it is on the deaf sites. I'm being flamed for doing this like I said to many deaf women are getting more
the entire point of the thread is ......
quit using that term! :roll:
