I'm a straight woman and i love my guys YET sometimes i tend to have guy mentality so i understand guys better than most women.
I have ENOUGH self respect, have values, and i grew up with old fashioned parents so i'm old fashioned in love and life yet modern.
ANYWAY, my belief right now in life (since i'm young) is that there's a right thing for everything. I want to finish school, get that degree and job and love will HOEPFULLY be there later in life when i'm ready.
My timeline is exactly that - finish school, job, enjoy perks of youth, find a guy, marriage, and family. Girls can't understand that this is what "plan" is
Do guys have this plan too? Even in your early 20's, do guys think ahead as far as not wasting their time on girls who aren't "wife material" and finishing school to have a good career to provide later in life>
Do guys have a timeline like me?

Yeah, but love can change the timeline a lot. I don't think a level headed person needs to ignore love if it's there just to finish a degree, but neither do they need to throw away their education and chances at a career for love, either. If something is love, then both people would be more than willing to work with each other. No need to say "I'm sorry, love doesn't fit in my schedule right now. Call me back in five years." That's silly.

I think most 'people' set out with a general idea of what they would like to do with their lives at different points. Call it plans, goals or time-line if you want to. Life (time) has a way of sneaking up on you and offering different courses to take by chance. So you may find yourself off your original course eventually, but enjoying where you are. I have known both guy's and gal's who have never had or made any plans. Just let life happen to them and they wake up one day and wonder where it went. But I have also known both who have stayed with their plans and been disappointed when they achieve them. Being flexible, and avoiding time-lines seems to work best for me.

Well I believe that there are a lot of different factors that can determine on how a person, or a guy in this case, views life goals and expectations. So it's very possible that some guys have "timelines" and others that play life "by ear."

We'll check back with you in 10 years to see how that plan is working.

I do... but i think love can appear in front of my eyes at any moment and i will be willing to say hello to him...
The plan goes only with professional (and kinda stuff), but with love, you never know... is like two parallel worlds...

Most men's timeline involves keeping score in one way or another.
