[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My comment got jumbled up in replies, here it is. I commented on poster who told OP to pivot to men with good but not UMC jobs:

This is excellent advice and it’s exactly what I did as a single 30 year old in DC a few years ago. The white collar professional guys kept rejecting me so I married a man who works in IT but who I could tell had potential (we are both immigrants but he was much more recent). I married him and he has more than doubled his salary. You need to settle OP. Your friends won’t tell you this, mine sure didn’t, but I knew the truth and telling myself that the doctors and engineers who didn’t go for me didn’t represent anything would have been incredibly short sighted on my part.

This is great advice. Indian PP here as well. I, too, wanted to marry the UMC doctor or lawyer with the Princeton degree.  For some reason, they never showed interest in dating me even though I went to college and high school with guys like that. I was an immigrant and perhaps did not fit what they wanted in a wife ( even though plenty of Indian women marry guys like that- white or Indian). My husband is more of a creative, entrepreneur type even though he also has 2 degrees from Georgetown. He ended up starting a consulting business and is doing very well.

Sometimes broadening what you are looking for helps. Think of Charlotte from SATC.[/quote]
