Women - get educated, get fit, cultivate good interests and hobbies, travel the world, save and invest your money - get a life and lead an interesting, healthy, fulfilling life - without chasing these guys. Trust me that when these men turn 30 - they will see you as the one who is a 8,9, 10. And you will have your pick.

I really dislike this way of thinking. Why is this extended adolescence the ideal? No wonder so many people are infertile now. I see nothing wrong with settling down in your 20's.

+1 OP sounds like she wants to blame all of the slutty women in her class hooking up and making it hard for her. That's not the issue.

I went to law school about 10 years ago. This may have been the culture, by I certainly did not abide by it. I hooked up with no one from school my first year (dated a few people from the real world) and had a serious boyfriend years 2 and 3. A guy who only wants to fuck you is not worth your time.

I was in law school 20 years ago, and that's how it was then too.

Looks, intelligence, earning potential/income, etc.

I know several couples who met in law school and married. I seriously dated in law school, as did many other people I know (at UVA). There is a lot of drinking and hooking up, sure, in part because a lot of law students aren't looking for a serious relationship--they are busy and focused on their studies and aren't prioritizing dating, and drinking and casual sex are a way to blow off steam. (And because some of them apparently reverted to high school when they began law school. So weird.) But, even if it feels like it, not everyone is into that culture--you might just be hanging out with the wrong people. It's not just about sex--it's about the values of the people you are spending your time with. If they don't align with yours, then you need to look elsewhere.

Just about every married attorney I know met spouse in law school, including me. I think of it as a very expensive dating service.

Jesus, OP.

I am an attorney and went to a law school that some would view as elite and I have to tell you that you are just doing it wrong.

You need to figure out what the hell you want. This is an expensive MRS degree and the people you are dating or want to date are kinda horrid. I still roll my eyes, ten plus years out at how stupid some of the women and men I went to school were. This isn't college, kid. This is your career and unless you are looking for a husband, you are doing it wrong to even look at law school dating as a serious option.

I met my husband in law school. He went to medical school across campus and we met outside of the bubble of law school drinking culture. Also, I didn't look for a 10 alpha asshole. I looked for someone with kind eyes and character. You are too young or immature to understand that it is character that leads to happiness in a relationship.

I had a similar experience. Countless couples formed in law school and are now married. It's actually a thing for the school - they even had a special Valentine's Day reception for alumni spouses last year.

About 10% of my law school class was just there for their MRS. So annoying.

Who has time for serious relationships in law school? Shouldn't you be reading your cases for tomorrow or working on your outline, anyway? Buckle down and get serious about the work, OP. That's what your classmates are doing.

The odds begin to favor men after age 25 and many women begin to get desperate.

The idea of the market value of women makes me want to upchuck. Revolting and a crick if sh-t.

You must be a male. Women always do this with other women(competition) and men. Please what value does a male who works at a gas station have vs a L2 at a big name school?
