Both looks and personality are important. Personality keeps you coming back and looks are the reason you spoke to her to begin with.

Obviously I wouldn't - I'm not a moron. However, a woman making significantly more than a man can cause feelings of emasculation. I've felt them - one can't help it. However, what makes us men is our ability to master meaningless emotions which do nothing but hinder us, such as jealousy, avarice and greed. This feeling is one of them.

And of course mastery over emotions isn't solely a masculine trait, just to make that crystal clear.

Why does money matter so much? If you are working and contributing, I don't see why the dollar values should matter at all.

I like nurses too-- I married one.

On the other issue, I would have little problem dating a woman that makes more money than me . . . I did so in the past. If I were single now, my income level makes it unlikely and if the woman did make more it would be largely irrelevant since I would still be able to treat for dinner or that weekend away.

I think it's more an issue of whether the guy earns enough to treat her as he'd like, more than any comparison with her earnings. Her earning more would compound it, but not be a problem in itself.

Tid bit of advice if she s still in nursing school she wont have but scants of time for u. The schooling is very time demanding. And then not to mention after school and the job starts, dont expect regular bankers hours that never happens. Most folks getting involved with one dont know that if there is nobody else coming into relieve u, that we are stuck there till they get someone else to come in. Its very rare that work only eight hours its usually closer to ten.

Problem is that Lady Deirdre is widely regarded as hot among SMAC players, and she has a very sexy voice.

You should have chosen a cannon or something.

Well I am married to a nurse, and while they aren't bankers hours they are very regular. She works 12 hour shifts at a hospital and full-timers average 3.5 shifts a week so there is lots of time off ( Mrs Flubber works a 55% load so its more like 2 shifts a week). It never happens that people have to stay more than an hour past the end of their shift (if their patient is in the middle of heart failure you just don't leave) but thats probably because there are 12-16 nurses in her unit on a typical shift. I could see how it would happen in a smaller unit though.

Overall I find a nurse's schedule is very very good for a relationship. before we had a child I came to quite enjoy the weekends she worked when I was free to do whatever I want. Don't get me wrong, I love spending time with Mrs flubber but a regular scheduled period of "me time" was actually enjoyable. Now that we have a child I still love that time since I get a lot of uninterrupted one-on-one time with my son
