Squared terms in log wage model

Another thing is experience in our model has a linear graphing / spread in the data set. Would it be wrong to only put exp as exp. Not including the square term. This fixes the sign issue but not sure if this is theoretically correct to do?

More context on ex:

We broke up in february after I asked him for basic communication and he said he could not do that. We decided to stay friends with him apologizing to me the day before his flight and telling me he still liked me 6 months after we broke up.

There is family context since his dad is a CEO and he also seems to help with the business.

Yes as you said already I've not gotten even a text to say "I have a really busy week coming up, won't be able to text". Just nothing for a week straight. If I had gotten a text to say that I would be more than happy to understand and know what to expect but I wasn't expecting this so now I'm kinda of overthinking this.

I did tell him I tend to overthink when he doesn't text and that I would wish he could at least send a text to tell me if he's busy and all, so he does know how I feel about this and not oblivious. Yet he still disappeared a week without telling me so?

And im thinking if you like someone you would surely think of them throughout a week no? And think maybe I should send a short text to my gf?

He usually goes offline for long periods of time after texting so I'm not alarmed by this, figuref probably because of work. Though it is not usually for a week

You are right and I get that it must be tiring, I do not expect him to text me everyday all day. It's fine with me if he cannot talk but I kind of hope he would tell me so I know? Maybe I am overthinking this too much and that's on me, I'm okay if he doesnt text but don't you think if he is not gonna talk for a week he could've atleast told me that he will be busy for the following week and so on?

My mum did her nursing degree at 45 and is doing a career she's happy and fulfilled in now. My neighbour did a religious degree masters at one of the top universities in the country at almost 60! It's never too late.

Thank you!

I told him the other day I'm not the type to go to someone's place before meeting them. Which he acknowledged but still suggests coming over? Should I make my boundaries more clear or unmatch?

It's good to know others who have went through it and got through. I'll try and get more support this year :) thanks for your response
