Someone with only a highschool equivalent education?
Someone with a child?
Someone that does not speak english or your native tongue?
Someone that may not even know how to use a computer?
What exceptions are you willing to make in terms of 'choosing' or 'selecting' a mate?
I'd wait almost a full year before deciding on a real commitment.
What would you do? Or what has your experience been?
(I know this is/may be old stuff but humour me)
Someone with a high school equivalent education?
>possibly, if they have a good job and could support themselves substantially. There have been people known to have a high school education or less and are successful. Ex. businesspeople
Someone with a child?
>No, at my age I don't need any babymamadrama. Too much hassle.
Someone that does not speak English?
>We could be friends at first until they get a working knowledge of English (if in Canada) so that we could have meaningful conversation. I would also try to learn the other language if I was in that person's native country. I think that would be a cool way to learn about another language and culture.
Someone that may not know how to use a computer?
>My father didn't know how to properly use a computer until I showed him while I was in middle school, so I don't think not knowing how to use a computer is a huge deal. But, if that person were my age, it would be questionable, but there's a first time for everything. I mean, I don't know how to do certain things, for example, I don't know how to cook (yet, I will be learning tomorrow by helping my mother with Christmas dinner) Hopefully, someone wouldn't discriminate against me for not knowing how to do something that could be learned.
Exceptions, I would be willing to make is differences in opinion of social politics (to a degree), different culture is not a problem, different race is not a problem, whatever within reason. Every situation is different.
Real committment, I don't know, I've never really had "true" committment with anyone. I've had some committment, but not to the extent of some members on this board.
