Yay another bash lonely loser aspie men thread.
This has nothing to do with that, sly. It’s more of an ageist generational bashing thread started by someone who walked uphill, both ways, barefoot in the snow to go to school & then was able to buy a home for less than 3x annual income and wonders why Millenials earning $35k can’t just go be independent in an economy where the average 1 bedroom apartment rents for $2100/month.
Seriously, it’s as if they completely forgot to teach math, finance, and economics to the older generation in those moving schoolhouses.
Also, it's a bit weird that this ageist thread is allowed to go on here considering what typically gets locked. I guess there’s a double standard here that allows old women to speak ill of hard working young people. *shrug* I dunno, I don’t have time to inquire, I’m 35 and have to go to my Sunday morning job now in order to make ends meet.
Thanks GF. Precisely what I hate about BABY boomers, as well as their hypocrisy and holier than thou attitudes.
Here is my advice to everybody in this situation (dating and living with parents). First be up front about it with your partner. They may well be in the same situation, and knowing you are too may be a big relief to them. And if this IS a deal breaker, then the relationship wont work anyway and you should move on.
And don't listen to Bea and her brood. They were raised in a time of post war prosperity and just don't get it. Her whole spiel is that you don't deserve to be happy because she disapproves of how you live. Even though its not likely a choice. Thankfully they are at an age where nursing homes and the grave will begin to swallow them whole. Bye bye.
