and I don't even have a college degree. Half the time I'm a lot sharper, better traveled, more informed than them, not always though---
but I do know a lot of my friends without degrees, who are pretty successful, it's harder for them, but they really aren't interested in those women, like that. You tend to attract a lot of what you are or embody, it's how people relate to one another.
they don't know what to talk about or how to carry themselves. There's a lot of class divisions in dating/relationships, that aren't really openly talked about.
I'm in that slippery place of having the looks and appeal, some of the money, and the "cultural capital" without the actual degree.
also dating on some level has to be somewhat comfortable. In the sense that someone firmly in the upper class, is not going to be entirely comfortable going to a date in like a Chilli's. The whole interaction is off from the first moment.
