Edit: Some really beautiful answers here. I think this is one of my favorite Q4W I ever posted. You guys actually inspired me. Thanks for writing how you feel about this.

Its kind of like employers not hiring someone overqualified because they have an idea that this potential employee can always find another job so its too risky to hire them.
Personally any time I'm with a decent-cute girl i know at any point some 6'4" guy can swoop her up at a moments notice and she can leave me. I've accepted she is not mine and its just my turn.
Just wondering if women have a similar apprehension.
Do you date "underqualified" guys knowing they can't just peace out for greener pastures?
Or do you still go for the best possible guys knowing full well the potential for them to leave is high due to other women competing for them. And do you accept that possibility?
