A female , anonymous writes:

I met someone recently..i was unsure if i liked him but i knew if i was totally turned off i would have ended the date sooner (we met from online)..the first night we met at a bar and then he offered to get dinner and then we went to get another drink in his area..so he drove alot for the first date and then drove me home..he wanted to see me the next night as well so we went out for a drink.

He doesnt seem to be playing much games and seems open about seeing me so my friend said go along with it then if you are interested. By the 3rd date he picked me up from work which took forver with traffic..he lives at home but has the downstairs area to himself and can take me to the back way if he wanted. He said he already told his family about me--how nice i am etc so he says u might as well meet them..he also had roses for me when i got in the car..he has been so sweet up to this point.

The thing that doesn't really bother me but makes me wonder if i am being shallow is the fact.. he is a high school drop out and has been in construction for yrs.. he does have a daughter as well. I think he was sort of a bad boy years ago.. drugs, hanging out a lot etc. just kinda was in the wrong crowd but isn't really like that now..I want to keep seeing him because he has been very sweet towards me and catering...but some part of me thinks oh maybe i am just settling b/c i found someone decent or something...but i think i am getting more and more attached each time i see him..am i making a mistake?

veronika agony auntWhy would you be making a mistake? Just because he's a high school drop out it doesn't mean you're "settling". A person is a person. If you truly like him then how can it be a mistake?

You need to stop thinking that just because he dropped out of high school you're "settling" for him. That's actually kind of inconsiderate of you to think or say about him; he sounds genuinely nice, and most women would love to probably find someone sweet like him.

Just go along with it and don't worry about superficial shit like his level of education. If you both get along and like each other, then why should any of that matter?
