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.
That's not your own place. You could get kicked out at any time with just a month or 2 of notice. I've been renting apartments since I left the uni dorm, never considered an apartment to be my own place, even though I usually lived alone.
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?
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.
Women with those requirements and can't keep a conversation going, have no sense of humour, don't have a car, live with their parents, and don't speak a word when you go out with your friends.
