I'm working on my third degree and dating in Birmingham is getting to be for the birds. I want to find someone that is my equal, but that seems to be slim to none. I have no issue dating someone I have like/common interest with; however I have yet date someone who has my intellectual interest.I love education and there is nothing sexier than an educated man. Where are they at in Birmingham. Help for the single MBA student looking for her match!! Oh, I'm not caught up on race, clearly and I don't do the club scene. Any comments or suggestions?

I am finding it hard as well to find professional women, I will be completing my dual Master's Degree later this year actually in two months with plans on moving back to Tennessee or maybe even Georgia where I will be going for my doctorate degree, but what saddens me is that soon as a person hear your credentials they already write themselves off. But when I say hey I played basketball over seas for a few years there okay with that, it's sad because the higher you go up education, tax brackets and or just a didn't way towards people get upset or complicate things because of ones success. I'm with you on this one.

I find myself doing that as well. Only because I think you are looking for someone on your level of education. I always think why would they want to date me? Maybe I'm wrong and go for it.

Keep open the idea that there are other life paths (than the one you have chosen) that offer tangible life experience that while may not be certified or certifiable by degrees still may be able to provide you with that link to social or other experience you missed while studying. Neither is better than the other. Keep your career separate from your love life. There are dumb a$$e$ and barely tolerable people in every walk of life, professional or not.

I think beyond the title/label/success of being a "professional" that a woman has to look at a man's potential. I will address the question, but the bottom line is that you have to look at a potential mate's positive attributes and determine if this person is worth your time. Time is important & a major investment. In a number of situations, people make mistakes or take rabbit trails in life. I think that most men & women as well want to be in better positions in life. So you may have to ask yourself if you want a man who has already "arrived," or a man who you can help "arrive?" The man who you help arrive through motivation, help him write papers in APA style, etc may appreciate you more & love you more. Just a thought.

I am excited about all the women who went the so-called "professional" route by majoring in business and following through with their MBA and then were really good in the finance industry... eventually the system eats some of them up and they have crisis' after which they reject everything and look for a bum like me to show them all the things they've been missing.
These women are usually going through the middle of their sexual peak and they are freaky leaky deaky in bed, not to mention their inflated bank accounts they have acquired. Perfect for setting up trust funds for the children she inevitably wants to have.
Hey, fine by me. 
.... if only it were that easy.... but, I definitely think there is something to be said for the importance of similar levels of education in a relationship... that doesn't mean that someone can't learn things on their own, lol...
Even universities are beginning to acknowledge this, in our local paper just today or yesterday they were discussing the possibility of opening up certain credit hours for people who could simply pass the test that shows a comprehension and acquisition or whatever of the course knowledge, lol. Would be interesting to see how many people have the equivalent of b.a's or bfa's or mba's or whatever you know - or degrees in humanities or even business or computer science who have never taken a single course at the university.

A women is not always intimidated by your education or your success, but no one wants to hear anyone brag or talk about themselves. You shouldn't start a conversation about how much money you make or what degree you have unless they ask. Otherwise, it will sound like you're trying to promote yourself or trying to convince others that your a good man.

Money is different than education. Some people don't have much formal education, but make a lot of money. And some highly educated people don't make much money.
I rarely find a man that makes what I do. But, that's ok by me. As long as he can handle it and doesn't feel emasculated.
And he doesn't have to be smart, either. I've got people at work to talk to about intellectual matters.
I know what I want in a man. Honesty, integrity, Christian, the guy that stands up and does the right thing, low temper, and treats me like I'm one of the most important people in his life. That's it.
The rest is just details.
When you know what you want, they're hard to find.
You'll find someone eventually. I hear there's a cover for every pot. Good luck!

We are out there, just got to look. But like one of the other posters said, just remember that some folks may have the knowledge without the degree. I have a M.L.i.S but I am also 85%-90% self taught in computers & network admin. There is a job called System Librarian (Head of computer dept) that requires the M.L.i.S but unfortunately not so much computer experience. You can see where this could lead to problems and they are addressing this by requiring more computer classes and offering some very advanced courses. Someone that was only self taught could do most of it with a few exceptions. But it is sort of like a union-No M.L.i.S., no job.

Not true at all. I helped my ex to earn his BSC, MBA and CPA then left afterword. So, helping any potential mate as far as education is concern is out of the way. Have your education first, and then we can talk. By the way, I have two BSC and MBA myself. Happy looking!

Some say to find a s/he to start dating, is to talk to only the s/he that has exceptable features once you find what features you like you listen to the personalities that respond to your own personality, which one sounds most complementive to your own way of thinking you start talking to them then when you feel comfortable you invite them for private time

Like u guys,I'm in the same boat.One morning, I sat with my dad in the porch asking him why is it so hard to find the right man? And my dad looked at me nd said, try to lower ur standards a lil bit and maybe ul meet him soon. That was a slap to my face.i didn't realize how high my standards is but then if I lower it then I wouldn't be happy either coz my principle is u have standards to follow to make u happy coz u deserve to be happy but I guess I'm missing something out there.
Being a professional woman,we tend to find the exact male version of us which I believe there's only probly few of em somewhere and I guess that's our downfall ryt there.I dnt know what to say but I agree that professionals or highly educated women are having difficulty finding the right man because of standards and hectic schedules.Wer always busy,always on the go and we don't realize that.

This is the nature of the problem with online dating in general. It shouldn't matter what someone does for a living, or how much education they have. Height and hair color shouldn't be factors in the selection process for your signifigant other. In fact, if you want to be with someone, it should be for all the reasons you can't put down in writing. You might as well have a link to your credit report attached to your profile if that's how you determine attractivness.

Well, sometimes men can be haters. Don't tell a man what you do right away. Stop asking them to. Try getting to know them for who they are first. Then see what the pockets look like. I'm single cause I had a few losses. All my relationships lasted for years. A decade or close....lol right now I'm trying to find someone that's matches me, yes freaks well, but can touch my soul without words or hands on me. That's what I blessed with before, I will get it again. Trust in yourself ladies, you hold the power!

Because you professional people think to highly of yourselves. you have a tendicy to look down on a person that has little to no success in the terms you think of sucess is. you over look the fact that a person can be successful just because he has never owned anything, therefore he don't owe anybody a debt to be paid. other than jesus. you are to stupid in your own right, to have the kind of professional sucess he has. you feeling me?

To me, the issue isn't education but intelligence and intellectual curiosity. I've met many professionals who slogged through school and grind away at professional jobs but don't offer much in the way of mental stimulation or interesting conversation. I've also met others who have no education beyond high school but have sharp minds and are curious and creative, and a much better match for me as a friend or lover than someone whose credentials match mine but whose mind doesn't.

Just like it is hard to balance a budget, matching in the professional individual is complicated. Anyone that is familiar with the break even point of a company? It's a critical point where the company realize profit or loses depending of it position from the point. In economics it is called the equilibrium price and it's where the demande and supplies equal. We all know how hard this get. We are facing the same when its comes to settling.
Good luck to all of us.

Hello,
I am very new to the chat areas, but I was interested in your post. It is sad I don't have any help for you, however, I do understand the challenges. My first goal is to make friends, and I find that takes so much pressure off me. My goal is a career in medicine, so my options are not coming out of the woodwork either. I would be thrilled to celebrate with you when you succeed in finding the right guy.

That was not a true post not all Professionals look down on people. If you feel that way maybe you feel small around them. I know a lot of professionals that take people as they are and frankly need to be a little more boogy! Lol patience is important. It takes time to find a bad one and time to find a good one. Don't rush my professional women just wait you'll meet him!

I don't think that education and career path are as important as intelligence and intellectual curiosity--at least, for me. I have a law degree and have practiced law and taught at the college level (among a wide range of other professional activities), but I don't much care whether a guy has a degree or a high-powered job. I just get restless very easily if he's not what I think of as a recreational thinker. If a man can read, think, innovate, wonder and give me new perspectives, he could clean public bathrooms for a living for all I care.

It goes either way. People are supposed to have relationships and get married for love, not for money. The problem with professionals lies in how nasty they act toward other people. Just because you dress "sharp" and just because you make more money doesn't make you better than another kind of person. Looks are deceiving.

As the Famous Wayne Gretsky one said.... "You miss 100% of the shots you never take."
You should not have degrees like you're earning merit badges. I do not meet your criteria of a professional man, but you'd see I'm not dumb, or uneducated, and unless I told you how much I make, you'd never figure it out.
And I'm not talking about anything else except knowing a man's value, and not defining it. If A man can tear down and rebuild a cars, that is a 70000.00 job. If a man can build and maintain a computer, that is a 25$/hr job. If the same man can also do yard work, home repairs and plumbing, those skills make him VERY VALUABLE. Without any degrees. You're more interested in the paper of going somewhere accredited.
A man who know what to eat and catch and survive in the wild is indispensible. Putting him behind a desk after devoting his life to the great outdoors is narrowminded and a waste. Why change him? Your three degrees should be able to help him figure out a way to make a job for him catered to his skills. If you meant, fancy car(s), suits, house and exeplemary vocabulary guess what? I'm your man.
But since the word "Professional" is always open for interpretation, no man can truly fit any criteria. Just part of the screening process.

Even though I have been in the computer profession since I was 17 and have a degree in Computer Science I honestly dont care if the man in my life is a so called professional or not. But.. on the other hand I dont want to date someone who is a Walmart Greeter or working the drive thru at Mcdonalds lol. I look for a man who has A JOB and who gets up and goes to work everyday like I do. It seems to be hard for me to find a good man who makes as much money as I do. But.. again I dont care if they make as much as I do, I just want them to make money of their own and not expect me to support them. I have met some very intelligent blue collar workers. In fact I am normally attracted to that type of man over the 3 piece suit type of man. If there is chemistry and intelligence and a desire to work and the man is not hung up on WHO makes the most money - then that is good enough for me.

They say that narrow minded people never learn. In my opinion, you need to study human behavior and get a dose of humility. There are many fine and interesting men that fight for your freedom, safety and way of life. They do not have degrees or the expensive education, but are, in my eyes, very interesting men.

O.k. Try some regular english here. Degree this and degree that. Heck, I got my certifications. Now let's put a real question in on this. Regardless of professions. Ask yourself "what is this paper really going to be worth?" Now ask yourself if your willing to go all the way and open your own services. Working for someone else the paper tells them that a person can do a job, but does that alone get you that job? Oh yeah, it's not easy out there. I can see more mom and pop shops coming back. Yet still haven't even covered over head yet.
Now maybe taking some of the skills. Regardless of degree or certifications acquired. Match them up in a general part of that profession. Accept that each other may know more about one aspect then the other, and vice verse. Become a team. Be willing to learn from each other.
It doesn't have to do with what the profession is, but make it work. Then you can enjoy also having someone understand what I call Techno Babble. (lol) You may have your own nick name for it, but it sure beats after explaining something having someone say "Huh?"
Both that can work together as well as life matters together. Sure could make things a bit sweeter. Hmmm ....... Could almost put it as. As long as you also help in making some sugar.

Probably you think to much of yourself. I am a professional man and I meet women all the time. Sometimes people take themselves too seriously and need to chill.

I'm working on my third degree and dating in Birmingham is getting to be for the birds. I want to find someone that is my equal, but that seems to be slim to none. I have no issue dating someone I have like/common interest with; however I have yet date someone who has my intellectual interest.I love education and there is nothing sexier than an educated man. Where are they at in Birmingham. Help for the single MBA student looking for her match!! Oh, I'm not caught up on race, clearly and I don't do the club scene. Any comments or suggestions?
I understand wanting a professional man/woman which is a great thing to want. But the problem I see is that not only people want professional, they want tall dark and handsome, strong, sexy, all that list you usually read about in cheesy romance novels,a FANTASY. Instead of looking for a humble, respectable, hardworking, fun, loving person. This is reality you're not going to find Christian Gray or whatever. No one is going to meet every quality on your love list, no one is picture or list perfect.

I'm sorry sweetheart, we educated women are doomed to be single for the rest of our lives it's like men are afraid of us because were too successful and and a bunch of workaholicsmen are looking for your brain, and especially your time spent to cook clean, etc. Then if we don't pay them attention, they cut the cake and eat it too. And if you find a man who is more workaholic than you, you won't like it either. You're going to wonder if he's working late or sleeping with the secretary...good luck to you

I'm a professional guy. I have a great job with plenty of room for advancement. There are a number of professional open women at my job, but they are automatically out because I don't plan on risking my job. I go out, see live music, but there are never any professional women there. Until professional women are willing to put the amount of time outside of the office as they do into the job it's going to be rough.
