    I guess you could say I refuse to date. I've never even been in a relationship before and I'm still a virgin. I'm not ashamed of it. I'm definitely in NO rush to change that or get in a relationship. I'm taking it nice and slow. Besides, I don't picture myself dating and/or being in a relationship anytime soon. I have issues in my life right now I have to take care of first. I have to work on myself. After that, maybe. Just maybe.

    I commend you for that, Prince. There is definitely nothing to be ashamed of & there's no need to get into any hurry. Nice & slow is the best approach to both relationships & sex. It's easy to get ourselves into situations where it's hard to resist the temptation to make bad decisions, & it's smart to take the time to make good ones. The important thing is to stay true to yourself. :cool:

    well i will be the first to admit that i never finished high school, let alone have a degree. to be honest, i don't think that it has made me less of a catch...if anything, i have experience where people my age don't. i entered the full-time workforce at the age of 17 and because of that i have street smarts as well as an adaptability where i know i can either walk into a job with prior knowledge or fake it until i get it. i've managed men and companies that have so much power behind them that they haven't been able to function without me. in short, i think education only gets you so far, and then your intelligence kicks in and basically that's what you survive on.

    Did you say catch? hmmm... I say black men are waiting to have you permanently on lock-down, and forever uttering 24/7 : "Tarshi dear....Tarshi sweetie ...Tarshi honey, and so on and on it goes...." Catch is an understatement:)

    IMO, you're one hell of a catch, Tarsh. Although I wanted to, I never got a college degree (life took me in a different direction), but I don't think that makes me any less of a catch either. I think intelligence & common sense are what it boils down to, & a degree doesn't necessarily provide either one. I think you either have them or you don't, & I'd take street smarts over a degree any day. Life experiences have taught me a great deal, & I continue to learn & grow every day. I think about going back to school sometimes, but I don't feel like it's something I have to do.

    again tammy, i see we agree (no surprises there)...!!! i have thought of going back to school now and then, but then realise that i don't need, nor do i want to do that. and for the record, you too are one hell of a catch...!!!:smt055

    Post a preference or a choice of what you like or not and someone is going to post...

    "Just because you (.......) doesn't mean you (.........)
    Or
    "I know a person who (.......) and they still (.......).

    Having a degree doesn't mean the person is going to be wealthy and live a 10 bedroom house, and not having one doesn't mean the person is going to be CEO of a fortune 500 company.

    What Is most important to me is not the degree but the place the woman is employed. A degree is a good indicator of that, but not the only indicator.

    dude stop playin, unless you truly are the type of guy that falls in love with every woman in a nice pair of jeans. Or, if you are like most grown as men....who understand the love for a woman is something that is created and grows out of a strong foundation.

    I know you are trying to get in where you fit in. But relax dog, I got this one.
