Even when I've been penniless (slept on a shelf, in a shed for a year, then on the floor of a canal boat for 1.5 years), there have been far more important things than money. I would spend the majority of my days trying to get money though. I was (am) super fortunate to have very supportive friends and family though, so I always knew I had a safety net.

Imagine how people with no net feel.

Agreed that both have the "douche quotient" though. Drive what makes you smile, and fuck everyone else.

Color me surprised when I had someone in a C7 decide to play with the Hellcat last week. Base C7 with not enough mods so he got waxed, but still fun & good to see. Even funnier b/c I'm on my snow tires.

The good thing is it signals to me who I should instantly avoid, which is nice.

For men, it's a numbers game so I rarely read profiles at this point. I just send out the same fun message & see who bites.

here's one I like to use "Hiiii, tell me about your exciting plans for the week outside of meeting me!"

I love when I get women getting upset calling me cocky or something. Nah slut, I just have a sense of humor you tightly wound dry pussy having twat!

Of course no one wants to be treated like dirt, but who really wants to pay some lazy ass's way through life?

My current FWB is a bum, but she's a nice person. I will never make her my gf. You can't get another real job b/c migraines?! Fuck off. Stop stealing my tax dollars.

Meanwhile, when I was out of work, I applied for everything to see what I could get & I was denied EVERYTHING b/c I was, apparently, a baller on UE

A) ok
B) In regards to the topic I'm fine with you thinking that.
C) What was your point? That people should prioritize money in a relationship if they are broke? lol

You're not paying attention or just being a dick to be one so have a good one

One of two things would happen. My inbox would fill up mighty fast or someone would call the police.

So you're saying to just not clean my room for a day or two?

Indeed. A few lines below that will state something along the lines of "Don't contact me for sex."

by any chance is her name lexi? The first time i met her she was talking my ears off, and said she had a concussion back in middle school for playing soccer.

I remember texting my mom if concussions made people talk non stop

That sucks man.

The migraines situation depends on the severity. If she rarely gets them and can function and is just a whiny bitch, then yeah that's pretty shitty of her to be on disability. I completely understand debilitating migraines though as depending on my stress level I can get them ranging from a few times a year to a few times a month. If I get them bad enough I can barely see and really can't even drive or work. I've had to get coworkers to drive me home on a few occasions, and the following days usually feel like a bad hangover.

Fortunately for me (or maybe unfortunately), I've been dealing with them since I was about 10 (29 now) so I know the warning signs of when I'm about to get one, and deal accordingly.

I did hang out with a girl in college though who got them a few times a week, that is a definite disability and I'm not sure how someone even functions. She was having a hard time passing classes.

So basically, legit migraines = tough situation, and lazy bum = go fuck yourself.

Sounds like a good cougar/milf name.

Umm, you sit on your ass all day liking Instagram posts. It won't be hard to keep up.

I like the ones who "love to laugh" because I don't. Laughing really sucks, but I do admire those who admit to liking it. Makes them very special.

Right up there with "love to hang out with family and friends and have fun." As opposed to most people, whose idea of a good time is being stranded alone in the desert and having to drink you own piss.

Drinking my own piss - I forgot to put that in my profile - thanks!

When I used to work in NYC, I had a lot of fun dates.

Now that I'm in Seattle its so weird here. The amount of girls I see on dating apps with things such as "ethically non-monogamous" or poly or other weird stuff is absurd.

I'm pretty liberal but jeez Seattle takes things to the extreme. Girls will specifically state they will not date anyone than is a moderate or conservative.

See this a lot here in CT. Unfortunate thing is most of those women are usually the only one thinking the relationship is non-monogamous.

I hate having fun, especially with the friends I hate.

Really? I didn't see much of it in CT/NYC.

But its an absurd amount here in Seattle. Most of them are even married too. I don't understand these.

I also see girls who write in their bio if you're against capitalism swipe left. Which I think is funny because they are most likely writing that on their iphone in a starbucks

Exactly.

Also, I live a few miles from UConn and Eastern, so this is likely why.

Seattle's been a tech hotbed for the last 15 years or so. So you've had a steady influx of recent college grads who were marinated in Progressive Neo-Marxist propaganda for 16 years or more. It's no surprise that they've tipped the scale towards the left.
