This still sounds sketchy to me because she didn't clarify the implication. :cry:

The woman seemed like a snob-type to me. And maybe she was the victim of "trash."

I'm a very gentle driver. I don't tailgate. If anything, I'm overly cautious......

I realise that but I don't think Sly should be with a woman who calls any men trash.

It makes no difference if they're unemployed, inexperienced or whatever. All human beings are valuable. Nobody is trash.

It is a bit of a red flag.

If you put the shoe on the other foot , what would be the reaction if a bloke's dating profile said no gold diggers.

My reaction would be the same. They're both disparaging comments. 8O

My son is in his early forties and does not drive. He learned how, failed his practical test and never tried again. He lived in a large city and took the bus or subway. His long term girlfriend didn’t drive either. He’s married now and his wife has a car and drives them both when they go out. They have no issue with it.

I failed my first test, I could only take it two more times, luckily second test the lady gave me break on some things so I barely passed.

She doesn’t resent him for it?
I’m sure they get comments from people at the least
I do when my sister drives me places, everyone expects the man to drive. I’ve been told I’m not a man because of it few times.

As far as I know she doesn’t resent him for it.

When I was young I used to think it was odd to see the woman driving and the man as a passenger. But back then a lot of older women did not drive. I used to wonder if the guy had lost his license. But that was 40 years ago. My husband and I worked in the same office for years and I did most of the driving. In part it was because I got free parking, so we took my car and because it was my car I usually drove. But my husband didn’t like driving in city rush hour and I didn’t mind, so that was part of it. He didn’t mind me driving at all and I didn’t mind doing it.

Parasites are those who contribute nothing of value to the relationship, regardless of their gender. Women can be parasites to men and to other women as well. Men can be parasites to women or to other men. The key is to avoid parasites, not to stop being in relationships.

And yes, I have a fairly large house. You're both welcome as well as anyone else from WP who would like to break some bread and share some good times. I'll even do the dishes, because I'm hosting.


I don’t offer anything of value.
I’m poor and lack any talents.

Some women just want someone to hold them at night. I assume you can do that.


Most of those women already happily have someone. Most of What’s left is the picky ones who never found a man who meets their requirements hence why they’re single still at 30.

Most people who are single at 30 usually have baggage , it's just the way it is

And then there are the nice, shy women....introverted....intellectual.....who kept themselves into books in college and in their 20's.

Now that they're in the 30's, they want to come out into the world, and meet a decent guy.

Then there are the ones who were married to dickheads in their early 20's, got tired of the dickheads----and are now looking for a more suitable, mature guy.

Everyone has baggage, it's just metaphysical nonsense anyway though.

Also people =/= trash. People who don't understand that are probably just acting trashy but it also solves nothing to hold it against them.
