Sometimes people judge others base on type of career not necessarily what you make. For example; in China and Vietnam doctor make regular salary which is equivalent to 40-50k U.S.D. but they are highly respected and admired 🙄 I think in the west it’s same concept but slightly different. Example; mechanic, nails tech... I know they could make up to 80-100k plus but people look down upon those profession. Whenever people say I’m too smart to be a nails tech i just say “thank you” and move on. That simple comment tell me “how smart they are.”

Back when I was single, I had people (even family members) tell me it’s a shame that I’m not going to go get a higher degree, even though I was already working at the time. I was even told that they would never introduce me to anyone unless I had all their requirements.

I remember I went on a date once with a guy going to a top medical school. And at the time I was working IT help desk and working on my masters in information technology. He was not really impressed by my career and what I studied. My goals at the time were to move up the ladder and learn more technical skills. We definitely did not go on a second date. Now I’m an IT systems analyst working on making databases for equine pharmacology. I like what I do and I hope to teach what I know now. I think it’s good to have an honest conversation what your goals are and career choices. If you guys don’t agree than two people don’t have to keep seeing one another.

In relationships, men want to be respected and women want to be cherished.

[@kristenm8221]

Oh please! This call was annoying

[@tandyrichae6194]

I think women need to figure out what they want in life super early. Men have the luxury of putting off family planning until mid thirties with little negative affect on life. Women suffer all too often trying to build a career into the thirties and then realizing that the eligible men aren't interested and starting a family is becoming a pipe dream due to age and fertility dropping. My strategy was to get my career started and stable as much as I could by 25 and meanwhile date a man no longer than 2 years before breaking up if no engagement. When I was 25 I was in my career field and stable and independent and single. So I started dating aggressively and casually, worked on my looks (lost weight, did makeup etc), and I met and married my husband within 9 mos. He's dope. Stable career handsome and same religion/morals. I'm 28 now and he's 32, we have two kids and I'm now free to continue my career aspirations without fear of never having a family. It's called planning and execution. I reccomend parents to be upfront with their daughters about what they can really lose if they neglect dating and family planning early if that's something they want. We do our daughters a disservice pretending they are the same as boys.

[@denisewhite3902]

Don’t get me wrong I like your strategy and what you said is right but that is IF having a family is what THEY want. Studies show that more and more women do not want that these days. Most of these girl’s that are picky are being that way because they aren’t desperate ENOUGH. Why people think that women aren’t aware of their own biological time clock makes me laugh. You don’t need to keep reminding them. If they aren’t ‘settling’ then chances are it isn’t THAT important to them. Gee 😂😂

[@juliettezea9507]

Why did you focus on your looks- makeup, weight?

[@tandyrichae6194]

@@denisewhite3902 you're making a good point. But it's very true that women routinely don't consider the actual consequences of neglecting family planning. It's almost an afterthought or a "mad dash" to find a suitable mate in the mid thirties for so many ladies. And I get that many women just don't want families, that's cool too. But I think we should at least set our daughters up for success by being completely clear about the situation they are in. Girls are not boys and we need parents that shoot straight about that. As women age fertility drops dramatically as does the dating pool get smaller. Men just don't have the same limitation so yes it needs to be drilled into daughters heads that they need to THINK HARD about what they will spend their precious youth and fertility doing.

[@tandyrichae6194]

@@juliettezea9507 I focused on my looks because most men are attracted first by a person's outward appearance and I was looking to attract as many men as I could so I could pick the one I liked best. It was all part of my strategy. I did a ton of research before I embarked on the 7 months of intense online dating that lead to me meeting my husband. It was strategy and numbers. Then when I met him, it was intentionality and falling in love. Boom. Been together 3 years and happy.

[@tandyrichae6194]

When I was dating my (now) husband, my job made me work holidays and weekends. It was a super strain on our relationship so when we got engaged I started looking for a 9-5 mon-fri job to make things easier. It really helped because I put first things first.

Maybe you should start dating people that are on your level.

@@juliettezea9507 Guys aren't looking for an anchor to their wallet. They're looking for an equal. Blue collar guys keep everything around you running. Nothing wrong with dating a blue collar guy.

I remeber I had a guy think badly about me because I was a cashier at a Family Dollar..he regrets that now, because now I make more than him and his woman combined lol

[@FridaysFlavor]

Unpopular opinion perhaps BUT YES! Being an accomplished person at something shows me, as a woman/possible partner, that you have follow through. I don't care WHICH career you choose, but you need to be on my hustle level! Many blessings all ❤️

Her first problem is dating in her mid-thirties. The only people she will attract are older men and men with a ton of baggage.

[@saxitopau1528]

For me, it is. I won't date teachers or nurses. Automatic deal breaker. Let just say a teacher nearly ruined my life.

[@endyy6671]

what's wrong with teachers or nurses? genuinely curious, i don't think that i have ever dated either

[@bonnevillebagger9147]

Yup! Teachers, nurses, and I would add bartenders/waitresses. Nothing but drama.

[@thecatnextdoor12]

Teachers and nurses are ones of the best women. Sweet and smart. Most millionaires have a wife who was a teacher.

[@GMNGChristian]

@@thecatnextdoor12 No. Most of them are hussies.

I’m so happy I clicked on this video 😂🤣😂 Love Dave!

[@DutchessSarahJ]

Eh. It’s about respect. If you don’t respect your significant other then peace out while you still can.

[@hymnodyhands]

It depends on how hard and how long she is willing to search for what she wants, given that she is around 35. She needs to write down what she values OBJECTIVELY, and look for that among 100 men. Not looks. Not age. Get a list of ten or 20 men that fit the values criteria -- and if there aren't ten in 100, then search out 100 more and get to ten. That is the advantage of the Internet -- basic data gathering can be QUICK. Out of of those 10-20, she would have a decent chance.

[@JasonFetty]

Why not date teachers or plumbers or office drones, because as a nurse practitioner she's making 100k per year and can easily be happy with someone in a respectable (if that's a real concern) but lower-paid profession. But she's chasing flashy guys with money who--surprise, surprise--have unethical jobs.

[@bonnevillebagger9147]

Meh, who wants a wife that would rather work than take car of her children.

[@chada75]

Plumbers make that cash, Though. Don't knock them.

[@retiredmanager510]

I refuse to date English Majors, Liberal Arts Majors.... if the girl decided to squander money on a degree that many cashiers have and didn’t need a degree for, I don’t trust her to handle money. But the final factors... is she debt free? Does she own a home like me (paid off)? Does she have saving and 401k like me? If she doesn’t, I promptly move on. I’m not looking to be someone’s ATM or pet wallet.

[@pistachiosandpopcorn7146]

Yes it should be a deal breaker if it's a moral issue but not if it's just a money thing. But if money is that important to you then it is..just for me it would only be a deal breaker if they did something I felt was morally wrong.

[@KC-dr3cg]

Good humor...good advice

[@roolyfe]

She seems very shallow! Why would anyone want to date her! If you do get a prenuptial agreement!

[@stevee8318]

I don't think any of the things she listed are per se immoral professions. I don't think whole life is a good investment but I also don't think every person in the whole life industry is somehow morally deficient. And even Dave admits that, while he would never buy one, some timeshares are legitimate. Just my opinion.

[@TheJared1445]

This makes me think. I do Car detailing and paint correction/protection and Professional coating installation. I’m only 22 and if I’m lucky currently(with this economy). I might make $20k this year. It’s a Lower paying job, it can be higher paying at times. But I love what I do, and I take great pride in my work. I treat every car as if it was my own and do it to the best of my abilities. I’m happier than I’ve been in a while. So now I’m thinking is this a turn off for someone looking to date me. Should I switch career paths?

[@GMNGChristian]

Don't worry about women right now. Focus on yourself and making big bucks; make sure you learn how to invest that $20k, don't just spend it in a paycheck-to-paycheck sort of lifestyle (that's how you stay broke). Develop your financial foundation, and as you get older you'll develop your confidence and surety of self over time. Then when you got your millions at 40 or so, you'll know what you want in a woman and can start looking for your 18 year old house-wife. ;)

[@kodomotachi1]

I love how you can tell proper DR followers, and RC and other of the personalities, because we all laughed at the 'left-handed puppetry'.

if woman is pursuing career don't date, pump n dump

[@simbah7941]

What kind of career tho?

[@catlady2795]

If you dont like someone, it isnt because of their job, your just not that into them. If your just judging first off by job your missing out on meeting somebody that could be right for you. Just my philosophy.

[@chiefs816kc]

If men started picking partners based on a woman's career feminist would throw a hissy fit.

[@BadMannerKorea]

Working at Wal-Mart offers a free education. They’re mostly business degrees I believe but all this talk about not going into debt and you’re looking down on people working there? Pathetic.

[@undecidedtoystore3003]

Doctor got jokes!!!

[@duanejackson6718]

But is whole life really that bad of a deal? At least the people are buying it willingly. And the interest rate is guaranteed. The only instrument you could buy with that much security would be government bonds, which pay a far lower interest then a whole life policy..... Government employees are still worse, because they get paid by taxes and we only pay taxes because the government will kill us if we don't. Or put us in jail for the rest of our life.
