Hell yes. I couldn't imagine having kids at my age. Let alone the people who do it in their teens. It's gotta be tough. I intend to enjoy myself while I'm young and leave the settling down until later. I certainly wouldn't mind be married as long as my wife has the same passion for life as I do. There is no reason a marriage has to mean becoming a stereotypical picket fence family to me. You and your wife sound like you have the right attitude man.

Well that explains it, haha. I did my bachelors at Michigan. You see a lot of the same stuff, except the women are less hot. lol At least at a prominent school like Michigan you will get a reasonable pool of motivated women. It's hard just to find a girl at all at GA Tech.

I agree that people usually look for those that are like them, for the most part. Most smart men aren't going to end up with some witless girl with no ambition.
It wasn't really meant to be a condemnation of the attitude. If that is what is going to make you happy in life, then by all means. I just wonder sometimes if they are truely going to be happy when it happens, or how they will cope if it doesn't. It's rough to have your life goal be something that is largely dependent on other people. I dunno if I could give up that much control over my happiness. I think it's a cultural difference. It just sucks for me. lol

I was wondering who would be the first to say it. I figured it would be one of the girls I've gone out with not one of the ones I've never met! haha
