My friends are saying for example if we are pushing ourselves to get to where we are, we are only going to be looking for people from the same echelon as we are, as in also pushing and striving and well aware of the fact that they are going somewhere. As in also trying to go to school, have a well-paying job, working on getting their own place, or living on their own.
And this is the criteria, regardless of life circumstances, it may not be fair, but that's how it is. And it isn't necessarily as if we are trying to marry into something else, but we are looking for mutual benefit in a relationship. I get that, and not so much financially but someone who is going to stimulate you emotionally, intellectually etc. Not that if you don't have an ivy league degree you can't do that, but I think people need to be on the same level sometimes to avoid awkwardness, guilt, certain things they wont talk about, like who pays for what etc. I get that too?
Beyond that though I mean, how is this more elitist or wrong than not looking twice at a guy because he's too short, or because he isnt your type, strictly based on appearance. That's probably worse and we can't act like we all don't do it. I also know guys who will say, I only talk to ghetto girls, or no I can't talk to her, she speaks way too ghetto. Can we be mad at either outlook?
I'm going to say no.
