[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You're 29 and just started a 4 yr program.  That means you'll be 33 when you're done.  For the next 4 years, you're primary focus will be school and I'll assume you also have a job.  That doesn't leave a lot of time for dating.  Depending upon how you are paying for your education, there maybe debt at the end.

By 33, you're going to want to start a family.  What time does that leave for just the 2 of you?  Maybe he is not looking for someone that comes into a marriage with potential debt, lack of time for the relationship, and a desire to start a family before the biological clock starts clanging.

I wouldn't say that you are out of his league, just that the two of you are at 
different places in life right now.  FWIW--I'm female and I can see his perspective.[/quote]

Op here. I am fully aware that with being older and starting a new career, I won’t been seen as that great of a catch. I want to further my career because it’s the best choice for me. I know it will benefit me later in life once I have a family.

I do not expect anyone to take on any debt. I will be paying fir majority of this degree out of my savings. I will have about 10k of debt to pay off, which I will single handedly pay. I also do not want children until 35+, definitely not at 33. Not all women strive to start a family by 33. [/quote]

+1. I am so tired of women and men who think women are just driven by their biological clock. Many women do not base every decision on whether and when they will have kids. That is not eneough the main priority for many women. The facts support that given many women over the last decade have been having families 35+ in order to put their career first. A woman never should feel pressured into thinking or feeling she needs to have a child by a certain age. We determine when it is best for us based on our lifestyles. We are individuals, and therefore should be seen as such. [/quote]
