Will graduating at 28 hold me back?

[Jason9]

Hey guys,

I'm graduating my 4 year Computer Science with Mathematics degree/major at 28 (I'm 26 into my third year). I have two tutoring business's which give me a healthy stream of income at the moment.

My plan is to get a well paid programming, computing job somewhere or go into finance.

Women love men who are intelligent, well educated, curious about life, who are well directed, have purpose. Moreover, they want a man of character and someone who is going to be loyal and faithful to them.

Most of my friends have started careers slightly earlier than me and now they are in relationships with hot women. The irony is two of them are network engineers and they both don't have degrees (CCNA route).

Will this situation hold me back getting women?

No. You have your s**t together, and that's more than enough. A woman worth dating and having an actual relationship will be a like minded individual. Someone who sees things the way you do, and has a similar outlook. She will get you, and like you for who you are.

Don't worry so much about this. You're still so young and have your life ahead of you. Ten years from now it won't matter when you graduated. Make the most out of the life you have now.

Opening Poster stop being a fvcking retard asking stupid questions. If you are physically and mentally well nothing will stop you. Sounds like you've got an education too which will only help.

It shouldn't hurt too much. But good luck finding any hot women in the Computer Science field. My LinkedIn comment yesterday was "There is an unwritten rule at tech companies that under NO circumstances will the new guy be introduced to any attractive women (if there are any). He will, however get to shake hands with every geek on his very first day".

In CS places they try to keep the 1 hot girl exclusive, and she'll be a DB trust me. She won't make eye contact and will have this "as if" attitude if you try to talk to her at work. This is because evry guy there hits on them. Unless you meet them during orientation, forget it.

Worst part is, often they are your bosses boss and people STILL don't introduce them, but you'll see them at meetings and not know who you are dealing with.

But the worst part about tech companies is that even though they are 95% men, the bathrooms are still 50% men, 50% women, so the men's room constantly has 4 guys in there. It's disgusting.

No. I graduated at 25, didn't get my MS until I was 30.

Thanks for all the replies everyone! I guess what I'm doing is all a positive since I'm furthering myself, I'm ambitious, I have a good career ahead of me and the right women will hold the right mindset.
