I am sure you followed your values. Quick question, you out-earned most the men you dated and dumped….how about the one you married?[/quote]
As I mentioned in the post – same education, same job and roughly same earnings (within a few percent – I can’t remember anymore). Not surprisingly I met him through work (although we did not work together), we had graduated the same year, so we were roughly in lock step. I don’t think I “dumped” people, but just in case you think I was getting rid of the low earners, a couple of them were orthopedic surgery residents, who were on track to out earn me. So you can spin that as you like. There were others (engineers, etc. – nerds probably in your estimation, and overall poor dancers) who were not expected to have the same gains. You won’t believe me, but I like people who I think are interesting and honest and generally share my values. I also tend to like Irish guys.
