I keep moving the goalpost for dating every time I reach one. At this point in time I am:

• 22 years old
• Studying electrical engineering (graduate at 25)
• Living at parent's home
• Employed with a moderate pay rate.
• Own my car
• Fairly fit

However, I feel like I don't bring enough to the table. The heart of my question is this. Should I start dating again now, or wait until I have a place of my own with a job in my field?

EDIT: My current takeaway is that I need to stop using material things as barriers and work on my lack of confidence. Thank you for the advise.

I'm looking to try freelancing to bolster my resume and wanted to get some pointers from the pf community.

Personal Background

Right now I am studying electrical engineering, but have a small amount of programming experience, java and c++. Most weeks at work I get pulled aside to design excel macros that often involve pulling two or more data sets and comparing them, cross-training lists or sanitizing databases. This was great at first but has been waining recently.
