By the way, I know guys that have been on dates with chicks, and for sure, their primary interest was knowing how much the guy earned, where he worked, and whether he had his own house yet.

It all comes down to the basics at the end of the day. Women in their 30's aren't messing around anymore. The clock is ticking.

uke:

I hate that shit. I need to start dating 20 year olds again. Actually I need to start dating anyone again, I've been on like 5 dates over the past year.

Get fake business cards.

Actually, when I first started working for KPMG Peat Marwick (back in the day, heh), I had the business cards with their famous blue logo embossed and glossy. I met some chick once at an outdoor music event and thought it would be ultra-cool to hand her my business card because it had my cellphone # on it. (She was a junior lawyer by the way). She was smitten I tell ya. She must have called within 24 hours. Good looking chick too, until she cut off all her hair. Ugh, why birds do this I don't know.

Ugh. My girlfriend and I talk about this all the time - the ugly generic middle-aged-woman look that she promises she'll never try to pull on me!

Let's see....
1. The "money driven" attidude--- FUCK THAT SHIT. I want a job thats relatively low on the stress level, and pays me just enough to enjoy the stuff I want. I don't want flashy toys. Fuck this whole "how much do you make?" Crap.
2. The short hair look: It's dumb. It can be kinda hot, but usually its downright ugly. I prefer long hair.... though I wouldn't rule somebody out for short hair.

 

[NAD]

I don't need fake business cards, I just hate that attitude is what I mean. I do need to get my cell number on mine though, that can get you tail aye?

Been sorta seeing an ex-bint lately and during our first encounter, she was telling me how she needs someone who is stable, has a career, blah blah blah. "Love is not enough." That made me sad to be honest, but then again she had just lived with some loser who was mooching off her so I can understand.

And of course I understand that money is the root of approx. 99% (1% margin of error) of all marital arguments, so... I dunno what the point I'm trying to make is. I'll close with a funny story:

My friend once said in order to get chicks, go to an ATM and take out like $20, get a receipt that shows your account balance. Take that receipt up to the girl you want, and say "what do you want to do tonight." Another friend replied "I don't think that would work since my balance is $16.42."

haha. sounds like me right now

 

[Erik]

oh god this is going to be such a gay post that i apologize in advance for even making it but

"Love is not enough."

well if she thinks that then she never really felt real love anyway imo as probably she couldn't be rational* enough to think "no you don't make enough money" if she had


EDIT: *cynical

 

[Conspicuously Absent]

actually Erik. Thats quite true.

errr...

FUCK! FAGGOT!!! GO GET A BEER AND GET LAID LISTENING TO DARKTHRONE GR1M Tr00 FUCK! YEA!

I might agree with that to a certain extent, BUT most people relate success to being driven and having some goals in life. Women flock to this type of security ...

 

[Demilich]

What I dont' get about most marriages is why people don't make sure they're at least roughly on the same page as their partner when it comes to things like money that ALWAYS FUCKING COME UP. gotta know the person you're marrying better than that. that's why i'm not afraid to get to the bottom of ANY issue with my girlfriend now -- in the interest of knowing how much she'll change for me and which things about her i'll either have to get used to or just fuck off.

 

[NAD]

Yeah, I don't think she really liked that dude. She says he still cars her up literally crying, what a fag.

EDIT: Oh man "cars" is the best typo EVAR because she's Asian.

That I can completely understand. Women, generally speaking of course, want a rock. At least in the long term.

 

[Conspicuously Absent]

@Lurch - I am driven. Driven to get that decent job. My goal in life is to keep that job as a steady source of money and enjoy myself. Rather stable if you ask me.

@Demilich - Thats the right attitude to adopt. Don't be dumb like 90% of the retards and get married too soon and then get divorced down the road (especially if there end up being kids... not sure if you're a VEHMT fan or not ).

what I learned over the years, is that the #1 thing women, and most people want, s to feel "safe" with someone.
being a broke ass with no goals ... well ... love ain't gonna last long

 

[Conspicuously Absent]

lurch, i didn't mean a low paying brokeass job. lol. Entry level jobs from my course are 60k salary.

That's exactly the plan - avoiding divorce. Sure, it may seem stupid to argue more now, but its in the interest of discovering whether there's potential for a good life together. I know that doesn't sound very "romantic" or whatever but when it comes down to it, two partners must be on the same page with respect to some basic interests or the marriage will fail in some respect.

A lot of this is to avoid having our family turn out like my girlfriend's family of origin - fuck, those sacks of shit have been destroying her life for the past 21 years because they got married before they were ready!

 

[Conspicuously Absent]

heh, i'm sure almost everyone here can relate to that demilich. and really, romance 100% of the time is for the more "fanciful head in the clouds" relationships that end up going nowhere. You, (and her it appears), have your heads on the right track, and thats a very good thing.

edit; Granted, i'm young and dumb and probably have no clue what i'm talking about, i'm just observing humanity and this is what I see.

 

[Demilich]

She's getting her life on track in a very serious way now following her brother's suicide - realised she can't wait around for her 50 year old parents to stop acting like children and has to take responsibility for rectifying all the problems they've given her. And i'm on board 100%!

 

[Conspicuously Absent]

sounds like a good healthy relationship man, stick with it.
