Not all the time, but it's good to have a wife with whom you could discuss some issues knowing that she can make sense of what you are saying. The point is we all are quite passionate about software/programming and that passion is not about to die, so it would be nice if your wife atleast understood what you are doing. It would be pretty sad if you do something really cool and you show it to your wife and she dosen't even understand what you have done. "Hello, World" 17 Errors, 31 Warnings...

CG I wonder whether you've noticed, but you and me are the only two people who seem to have taken the bait :-) Nish

Yeah, I thought I'd go to Daves site and get an actual pic. Christian The tragedy of cyberspace - that so much can travel so far, and yet mean so little. And you don't spend much time with the opposite sex working day and night, unless the pizza delivery person happens to be young, cute, single and female. I can assure you, I've consumed more than a programmer's allotment of pizza, and these conditions have never aligned. - Christopher Duncan - 18/04/2002

Sijin wrote: But imagine what it would be like if you could discuss STL with your wife I will soon know what it would be like. My fiancee is a programmer. Not only that I can discuss Java and Oracle too. Only time when we had technical discussion was when I said that Oracle was a crap but she stood for oracle. Ofcourse I had to stop the discussion and since then we never had any technical discussion.:)

Hope somebody can offer me some good advice. I met this guy almost two years ago in an ICQ chat room. Well we started emailing each other a lot and sending pics and chatting a lot. This month he finally flew over to meet and he stayed in a hotel in town. We had a lot of fun together it was great, but towards the end of the first week I found he really did not know anything about computers :(( and was just really a user. I think I would hate to stay in a relationship where I was totally the technology savvy partner. Is it right for me to dump him, just because he does not understand OSes and can not program? Am I being selfish wanting somone who can boot from a floppy? I hope I have not bothered anyone by posting this here, but I thought I would turn to my friends first. :rose: Janice :rose:

Yes that does sound week does it not :-(( And we do not really have any common interests. :rose: Janice :rose:

Janice wrote: I think I would hate to stay in a relationship where I was totally the technology savvy partner. Knowlege of computers isn't everything. Everyone has their own interests and specialties; find out what his are. You may be able to teach each other quite a bit. If you can't find out what his interests/specialties are, then there's a good chance you're heading into a very dull relationship.

:-D :-D :-D yeah... That reminds me , a long long time ago when i first ventured from the Turbo C++ world into windows programming. I bought a book, Windows programming with Borland C++ i had no idea about Windows API or the OWL library. I wrote my hello world program using OWL and u can guess how many errors and warning i encountered, i didn't even have the OWL library :-D :-D :-D Anyways i think that set me back quite a bit and this was before the Net so i had no idea about how to proceed and this is how i ventured into the world of VB :-O :-O but thankfully i am out of it now. :) :) Do you program in Assembly ?" she asked. "NOP," he said Sonork ID 100.9997 sijinjoseph

I'm a software developer and as so I have to work with users too often. I find they really give me headaches. Most of the people I work with are male and I prefer the smart ones by far. I really enjoy stimulating conversation and discovering, having to teach a guy anything doesn't interest me. If we get in to a long term relationship and I have continually have to explain things to him I'll be driven crazy. :rose: Janice :rose:

Janice wrote: Am I being selfish wanting somone who can boot from a floppy? There's nothing wrong with wanting a partner who shares your abilities and interests. And there is good reason to avoid a man who poses as someone he is not. The dishonesty won't stop when the courtship is over... Janice wrote: I hope I have not bothered anyone by posting this here, but I thought I would turn to my friends first. I'm glad you thought to ask us. No one here has anything to gain by encouraging you or attempting to dissuade you from this relationship. We just want all of our friends here to find happiness and a life of contentment. It is always right, IMHO, to dump a doomed relationship, no matter what grandiose gestures were made to initiate it. There is no unhappiness in Dante's wildest imaginings so great as being with a partner who is wrong for you. It is far better to suffer the pangs of loneliness, than to be trapped in a relationship with a 'wrong' person!
