Two paths

Gonna go ahead and lock in this post showing DT claiming the below and his weird unhinged post utilize the same logic.

You are basically saying that wealthy people only get with wealthy people because they have things in common. Sounds segregationist.

It's kind of racist when wealthy people never get with lower class citizens.

to help explain why he is pathologically unable to accurately interpret published research, or distinguish between the legitimacy and methodology of sources.

That's not true, but nice personal attack!

That is a tough one. Why would someone look for partner that has things in common with them? It's madness, I says. Madness.

Should your partner have everything in common with you? Including race and culture?

QED to my previous assessment regarding inability to accurately synthesize information.

It's kind of racist when wealthy people never get with lower class citizens.

It's depressing that anyone would need to spell this out.

Career goals, and the personality traits often associated with them, are not the same thing as someone's race.

Good gravy.

That's not what you said earlier, you said "things in common". Your phrase "things in common" can mean a lot of things.

are not the same thing as someone's race

It kind of is, there's a big racial wage gap in the US. If you only date wealthy people, it's very unlikely you'll ever date a racial minority.

Well, it's going to be tougher for women because the Math isn't going to work out. There are now more educated women than educated men, and educated men are willing to get with women who are less educated.

Anyways, women who are more educated than me are free to reject me. I can attract Mexican girls in their early 20s and LDS girls.

You should have stuck with your previous choice to delete your posts.

I'll refrain from quoting the most recent iteration in case you come back to your senses.

If you only date people who have a lot of things in common with you, then you effectively exclude people of a different culture.

You should have stuck with your previous choice to delete your posts.

More importantly, why should the "things in common" always have to be about socioeconomic status?

[doubtingthomas]

Arrrrr, you be right there shipmate!

Same question for you. Why should the "things in common" always have to be about socioeconomics?

To say you've tried and the odds are too heavy against you -- you have no idea what kind of odds can be against a person and yet they succeed. I'll tell you right now one trait he has that helps, that I'm nearly certain you'll need to develop -- he's a sincere and caring person at heart, and at least in the moment, he wants to understand and help the other person -- her problems come first.

Is he very charismatic?

I am sure I can succeed, I succeeded a few times, I am sure I can do it again.

I'll try talking to educated women (again) on dating apps when the time is right.

Doubting Thomas you probably have a better chance attracting a younger woman now than when you were in college. And women don't care how you look. They care about how secure your finances are which usually favors older more established men.

Take a trip to Latin America and announce that you're available. Flash your credit card and you'll find more interested and attractive women than you can count.
