It's not rocket science. People who have their shit together don't use 4chan.

If I go on a date with a guy that has his own place at this economy I just assume he is a psychopath

[–] [email protected] 15 points 1 year ago

Hey I'm not a psychopath and I have my own place. Sure it may look like a house where people turn into missing persons but I'm completely normal. You get what you can get in this economy.

I guess it depends on your age. When I was in my 20s everyone had their own apartment, but now it doesn't seem feasible til 30s.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Yes but that's because we don't all live in the 1950s anymore.

It used to be that you could support a family of four on a single income that's where the whole idea of the male bread winner came from. These days you struggle with two incomes.

I was born in the 90a.

has his own place

That pretty much rules out anyone under 35 and single with current property prices.

Nearly all my friends who have bought property, did it as DINK couples, not on their lonesome. Hard to get the down payment together otherwise.

Has his own place can be renting

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago

I didn't get my own place until I was 33 and I will fully admit that the only reason I was able to do that was because my parents lent me a huge amount of money. My car is literally their old car and looks like it.

Those really are kind of unreasonable standards. If I have my own car, and my own house, and apparently I have to do all the cleaning now even though there's two of us? What on earth is she being to the relationship?

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

I'm on the approach to my 40s and most of the people I know my age are still renting. I was lucky enough to buy an abandoned property after the 08' crash for 30k, and that was only because I was able to secure a large personal loan from my credit union.

Even though I'm making a lot more money now, I don't think I'd be able to afford the neighborhood I'm currently living in based on how much it's appreciated over the last 10 years.

What's the woman equivalent of a neckbeard?

A woman on 4chan with those requirements and can't keep a conversation going, has no sense of humour, doesn't have a car, lives with their parents, and doesn't speak a word when you go out with your friends.

Armpit hair?

Jungle puss?

[–] [email protected] 24 points 1 year ago

Those requirements are exactly the difference between a robot and a normal person.

[–] [email protected] 24 points 1 year ago

Might as well write a checklist of things you won't find on 4chan.

You lost me at knows how to go on dates, I got lost in the woods while trying to get to the restaurant 5 minutes from my house

In this economy, its a pretty high standard to expect a guy to have his own house.
