OLD when they claim to be busy with school or whatever


Recommended Posts

Just recently saw this online dating profile of a woman that lives locally. She's late 30's has kids over 18 (so they are grown), and she put something in the beginning of her profile in regards to men getting pissy with her because she doesn't do much texting because she's busy with homework all the time as she's trying to better herself.

 

Apparently, she claims that's "all she ever does is nursing school homework", funny I recall going to college and always having time to date or do social activities on campus. Strange.

 

But if college is keeping her THAT busy, does she really need to be on a dating site at this time?

Couldn't edit the last post, wouldn't let me....in addition to what she said, she simply doesn't have much time for anything due to her schooling at all. So what's the point of being on the dating site?

Why does it matter to you? Why should it matter to anyone what she says on her profile? Why spend any time analyzing this?

 

Basically, I don't understand what you're asking or why.

 

Aren't you in a relationship anyway? If so, why are you checking out OLD profiles?

She wants someone who will be available at her convenience, for her convenience. She may want the illusion of a boyfriend, but most likely only wants a f*** buddy who fits her schedule.

Exactly. Who cares? Just move on to the next one.

IRC just forget this woman.

She isn't for you.

 

You need far more attention than she is able to give so it's best not to even question her/ the scenario/what she wants.

Appart from IRC's specific one. I will say the following generally:. There are a lot of women with PHD's in various fields in OLD. Some of them are probably single due to excessive career-centric thoughts. I can see how one must choose, if you want to be willing to move and "deploy" for your work (woman or man) then the love thing is going to be hit or miss.

 

However within real encounters I know few with PHD's. Nursing school, I guess it can load the schedule, pace, intelligence, distraction... At least she'll be qualified to freeze your worts off when you get old.:o

Well, I am noticing in influx of women who are going BACK to school at the age of 40 and beyond, while I've been down that road already in my early 20s

 

So they load themselves down with full time work AND school. Personally, I think women in their position, if they want a social/dating life, they should just take a couple of night classes instead taking a FULL load of courses, esp. if they are working. I guess they aren't one for taking their time about it.

 

Though, I don't deny someone bettering themselves, but there's just something about people in my age bracket on on the same page in life as I am.

 

I did school, it's DONE and OVER with., but I meet a lot of single, over 40 women who are doing the career change thing.

You seem far to critical of these people. If they want a full time study load, thats their choice. Seriously, you're not even interested in this woman so why do you care?

And your point is??? Sorry you expected too much. Some college peeps have full time jobs. i remember pulling 48 hours none sleep for job and final. Never recovered until i graduated. So, busy is what priorities you have in life. Not everyone is so privlaged as you.

Point is, they should not be dating if that's the case. Isn't fair to the other person. Apparently, this person said she's been taking issue with men having a problem with her lack of time, but yet she's on a dating site.

Still don't understand... is the site your on a speed dating site??

 

If you are interested in someone, and they don't have time that fits your requirements. Then stop complaining and tell them your in a hurry and have peeps lining up, and move on. If your truly interested, I am sure you would wait or have segments of convo to arrange time. I have not dated much, but know womenz time is totally diff then menz. Women can wait for the right man, men can't wait period.

But you're not trying to date her, I take it. You skimmed the profile, didn't like it, so move on.

 

So what if someone over 40 wants to go back to school? Find someone who is in the 'same stage' as you. Or better yet, someone who will let you support her. Sheesh.

 

Who are you to say who should and shouldn't be trying to date?

Is picking apart random online profiles a hobby of yours or something? Please explain! I don't get it at all. No offense, just curious.

 

Haa, while the presentations here by IRC seem a bit intense perhaps, there are some of us that learn by the "Case Study," approach. I feel that an extensive analysis even of things not relevant to me, lead to a fuller understanding of those things that are.

Then you'll gain a lot of info from his posting history. I did wonder if he was doing a thesis on OLD, it would make sense.

Many people get carried away with texting and send tons and tons of texts a day. I bet that's what she meant by not having time for it. She doesn't have time to spend constantly texting someone, or immediately responding to texts. There are plenty of people who assume that if you're not responding immediately or engaged in a never-ending back-and-forth that you're not interested. She's giving them a head's up that dating doesn't mean that.

You ever consider maybe she MIGHT find a guy whose in the same sort of situation and they would work perfectly? not everything is black and white some times its a shade of gray and just cause you don't care for it doesn't mean its not right for her would I personally do that? prob not but to each their own..

Actually, it wouldn't work, because they would never have time for each other. Chances are, and no offense, she'd only be good for an occasional booty call or FWB where there's no commitment involved.

Moderator, can't you just consolidate all of irc333's threads into one? They are all the same and yet he keeps making thread after thread after thread like this every day. Please, make it stop!

 

You can title it "Ways that random women approach dating that I think are wrong". It just might even take some attention away from the "Height" thread... :laugh:

Sounds like a dedicated thread is in order! ;-) Also a "Picking a part dating profiles" dedicated thread, too. :laugh:

Why shouldn't they be dating?

It's up to them if they want to be dating.

Why do you think you know better for them then them?

 

They are being up front about limited time - nothing wrong in that.

 

I would love to find a guy with a busy life and hobbies of his own. :)

When you find you are a man's focus and his only outlet...talk about pressure! It's no fun at all.

 

She clearly isn't for you..so just move on.
