still single
Santa Maria, Brazil
Today, it was still easier for me to get an engineering PhD than it is to get a girlfriend. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Same thing different taste

Prepared
Today, I realized that a Ph.D. in Mechanical Engineering does not offer enough knowledge and experience to accomplish some simple, everyday tasks. I have spent the last 12 years designing large robots to scour the seabed for shipwrecks yet the mechanism used to unhook a bra eludes me. FML

Today, I realised being the only female engineering student sucks. I have exactly one friend, because everyone else is too busy staring at my boobs to have a conversation. FML

Today, I was offered a job. It only took me a year and 17 interviews to get an offer, and I have a PhD. FML

Today, I found out that the engineers I work with believe that a woman with an engineering degree working in an engineering company is apparently equivalent to a "secretary for engineers." I am that woman. FML

Sore loser
Today, after graduating from the same program, I was offered several jobs, while my boyfriend wasn’t. He couldn’t be happy for me, saying, "She got in with the right people, and they just keep handing her jobs," and dismissing my work ethic. FML

Today, I had to Google how to find the area of a circle. I'm working on my PhD in engineering. FML

Today, I lost my job to a girl that graduated with the same bachelor's degree from the same college as me. She also got a master's in an unrelated field. I've been working there 7 months, and her master's in maths apparently makes her a better athletic trainer than me. FML

Simping
Today, my girlfriend moved to Germany for her Master's degree and perhaps a PhD. I'm still stuck in this third world mess which we call India. I simped for her and agreed that she can have non-serious relationships with other men. I'm so broken. FML

Today, I eagerly applied for a high-salary, fully supportive graduate program that I qualified for. There were 5 steps in the application process. I was turned down after the first one. FML
Your Losss Tho Babe
We live in a society
Today, I was yet again rejected by the man of my dreams. He’d rather date these girls with no college degree, no career, can’t cook/clean, etc., just because they have a pretty face and a nice body, instead of me who has a respectable future, career, and education. What is wrong with society nowadays? FML

There are lots of guys who would rather have an engineering PHD than their current girlfriend.

If it worked like that I bet there'd be a lot more people trying to get into engineering programs.

Everybody has their strengths and weaknesses man. There's someone out there for you.

Also, at least OP doesn't have to deal with supreme bullshit. First you get the money, then you get power, then you get the woman.

Construct a girlfriend to put that degree to use! She'll be just the way you want! Lol

That PhD is probably a lot more valuable

PhD usually brings money, money can make girls look your way, just choose wisely!!

If a girl is only interested in you because of the money you have.. let me put it this way: Bye, Bitch!

Well I'd rather marry a prosperous and educated man than one who is not.

I know that some women prefer education over other things, I mean I'd rather have a cute educated girlfriend over a hot airheaded model!

I find a thirst for knowledge way more sexy than a thirst for money in a man. I can make my own money, but money doesn't come running to you at the end of the day all excited about the thingymajig they've just created!

Looks are important too. If you're not physically attracted to your spouse, then your relationship will eventually crumble, no matter how much you like their education. But stability helps in a relationship. (Stability can sometimes equal money.)

PhD= pretty huge dick, or so I thought.

Once you're wealthy you'll attract tons of women

Well you have an engineering degree, which opens many high paying career paths. When you're rich, the girls will come to you!
