[quote=Anonymous]I live in an area where it’s common for people to not graduate high school, let alone get a degree. It’s shown me how important similar educational backgrounds are.

For one, it’s difficult for me to have a conversation with an uneducated man here. We have little in common, and it feels like we’re just talking past each other. No joke, it’s super common for me to meet a guy, and all he talks about is weed, sports, and his workouts. That’s literally it.

But another huge issue is just lifestyle incompatibility. The majority of the uneducated men have problems with alcohol/drugs, are misogynistic, not involved with their kids, cheat with multiple women, hold a minimum wage job, etc. Of course those problems are limited to uneducated people, but overall it’s much more likely. I think not being able to get basic education - even just an associates from the community college - shows impulsivity, lack of foresight, and inability to work hard (and yes, I know there are the exceptions of people who started a business and did well. Those are the exceptions, not the rule).

I’m not saying I require an Ivy League degree, because I certainly don’t have one. But any sort of higher level education means we’re more likely to have things in common, conversation topics, and shows they have basic curiosity and a desire to learn more. I want someone who can talk about more than just football or that time he and his buddies got hammered. [/quote]
