Met a sweet girl. We went on a first date, but I'm not sure if it is wise to continue dating her because I plan on moving for a PhD in CS for the Fall 2024 (in a year and a half) cohort. What does everyone think? Crodwsourcing opinions. TC: $80k (LCOL) Working full-time and doing an online masters in CS.
Having the right partner should help reduce stress - go for it
You can't time these things. Live your life. Be honest with her about your plans but you never know what's going to happen.
💯
Are you willing to miss out and always wonder what could have been?
Talking about the PhD or the girl?
When you’re old and your days are numbered, will you care more about having a PhD or will a lifetime spent with someone amazing matter more?
Date her! If the two of you click she may relocate with you, but you’ve only been on one date and you don’t know what your future holds.
Not sure I follow. Do you mean by continuing then you'll get distracted?
Will end up moving. Possibly to Georgia Tech, which is where my masters is currently at.
Why are you doing a PHD in computer science?
Reinforcement Learning specifically
Relax, you had 1 date. You don’t need to plan a wedding, see if there’s a 2nd date before you jump to worrying about if they’ll go long distance with you in 18 months.
Older, wiser single dude here. Meeting the right person is a lot harder than getting a PhD. If you don’t see any red flags, give it a chance. Take your chances when they come around, because they aren’t unlimited…
