LOL me ALSO

The woman will eventually dump you if she has more education and brings in more money

Mirror that may be true but that doesn't make her better than him. Their differences were too great to bridge.

Read the post and different leagues become obvious if that was your intention to find out.
Interesting though

She did at first, then I went back to school, and started making more money, then she dumped me and she is still bitter about it.

I take a bow Mirror

I know "opposites attract" but I've never thought that attraction would necessarily develop into a good solid relationship.

I think you are better off, forming that with someone you have a lot in common with: similar age, background, morals or ideals, and yes, probably education level, income level, etc.

I don't believe I am "better than" someone who doesn't make as much money, or isn't as educated. I just think those differences can lead to conflicts later on down the line, when the infatuation period is over. Building a relationship and making it last takes effort. Why add a bunch of potential roadblocks?

I like beer too.

Just to clarify, my examples were very stereotyped exaggerations of polar opposites. A dichotomy of extremes.

I simply meant we all want something different and we are all different. But there needs to be a compatability based within those things.

well thats wimen for ya

Nicely said!

No one is better or worse than ourselves unless we think otherwise.

the "billy club" puts them back in our league

I guess I don't really understand that term very well....
I guess Brad Pitt would be out of my league...
Or like Tyra Banks with Gary Coleman, they may not be in the same league..
The rest of us..were all on here are we not?

My mama always told me that I was from a different zip code...

Shenanigans. I once dated a woman for about 9 months that lived in the Los Gatos hills. I had to leave because she was spoiling me way too much and wouldn't let me pay my own bills and buy my own clothes. She was educated, wealthy, and intelligent.

I would hope that all that league bologne would have gone the way of the caste system but in this country unfortuneately looks, money, and education still seem to create a sense of eliteism for some people.

I will admidt I don't want to go back to peanut butter, commodity cheese, and second hand clothes but for a good companion that makes me laugh I would consider it. Things and status don't mean alot when you get past a certain age.

I am in a 'league of my own'...

With plenty of room.

Ok what makes you think Brad Pitt would be out of your league? I think you are wrong but what made you say that?

The only person that puts you out of any 'league' is you.
