One thing I wanted to say about Barack and Michelle, and I know this is going to get me stoned, but I think it's important after re-reading your thread. I think the advice you gave is excellent. But.....when Michelle met Barack, he was ALREADY at HARVARD LAW SCHOOL, which is #2 law school in the country. Also, he was the PRESIDENT of the Harvard Law Review. No offense, but Barack is the intellectual equivalent of dating the star athlete at a Big 10 school, where there have been several Heisman trophy winners IMO. I know Michelle took an absolute risk, so I don't negate that. However, Michelle had some comfort. My friend's situation is similar, yet still different. Technically, this guy hasn't even gotten into law school (although I'm sure based on what she said that he will). Not that she cares, but I don't know if he's going to Harvard or that calibur school(and I know that doesn't matter). Just wanted to give another way of looking at it. I think it's important to see this from all angles![]()
THANK YOU for this post!!!! Shoot, my arse was working on a Ph.D. driving a broke down Toyota Corolla.

A broke law school student (and a rising star at that!) is one thing... Dating someone who "is looking" to do XYZ but ain't done **** yet - and banking on him actually going to (and finishing) grad school - when it's YEAAAAARRRRRS down the line is NOT a good dating criteria.
There's too many men out there that would be a better fit for me to try to force this one. No thanks.
