[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here. Basically ladies you find a man who treats you and your kids like royalty he only wants to be with you no other women yet he works at burger king . but says he wants to find something better.does he have a chance with you?[/quote]

In theory yes.  But it also depends on how intellectual, well-read etc he is.  I like having interesting conversations with my spouse, and I find that our having similar education levels in related fields means that we tend to have a lot of non-personal stuff to talk about.  Then again, I also went to grad school with people who are dull as bricks to talk to, so I know formal education isn't really what determines this, more just general curiosity and natural intelligence...and for all I know someone working at BK has a PhD and is just having trouble getting work in his field.

FWIW, I have noticed that sometimes its the men who overcompensate if they feel insecure about having a lower salary.  A BigLaw friend of mine has tended to date men outside of law who typically earn less than her (just happenstance).  Until her latest BF who I think is awesome and a keeper, they have all been obviously insecure with the discrepancy and exhibited super macho behavior that would really bother me.  Her current BF is less well-educated and earns less than her, but treats her fantastically and clearly respects her.  I think he's great and really hope they stick together.[/quote]
