    1. Damnit. I think I have that. And seeing it worded like this makes me feel real fucking dumb.

      I know this is a joke but this is nearly always codependence.

      “Sure babe I’ll buy you that Louie”
      “Sure babe I’ll go down there as long as you need”

      except the return is “Babe I’m gonna need you to show enough gratitude to fill a bottomless well”

      it’s nobody’s fault – it just is

      As I say, I know this is meant to be a joke. I just hope people don’t *actually* expect it of themselves or others

    3. My dad is a good man, but, my God, he is a miser. We grew up always having what we needed, for which I’m grateful, but never a single thing more than that.

      I always said I wouldn’t be like that, that money can bring joy and comfort beyond necessity. Now I’m an adult with a really good career and I spend fairly freely, although not excessively. If I care about someone I’ll buy them gifts or take them out, romantic or otherwise. There’s nothing sexualised about it for me, I just like doing things for people that bring some level of joy.

    4. I am so glad I developed that.

      I’m gonna give me everything I ask for and then some. Because I deserve that shit.

      This sounds like some shit unemployed people think about instead of getting jobs. Like when you so broke you dream about finding money, but with a man attached apparently.

    6. The reason people feel inclined to say stuff like this is because it’s shocking when you meet someone these days who’s so giving … it’s a rarity because people have been abusing it so long and it’s sad that the world is going this way.

      A lot of people say toughen up but I dont want to be the product of 100 different abusers / leeches, I like me and I like being generous when I can but I hate that feeling when you feel like you’ve been taken for a ride or wasted your good intent

      tbh, True! It’s lke a freebie—everyone loves it until the catch hits. Just gotta be real about expectations!

    8. The older I get, the more I think a lot of women are as responsible as men for all the misogyny in the world.

      On the same note, the older I get, the more of a militant feminist I become as a man.

      Like, Jesus Christ ladies, get a fucking job and don’t rely on a man. This shit ain’t healthy for anyone.

      Maybe it’s because I grew up with two medical professionals as parents, but I can’t even FATHOM being with an uneducated woman like this that has no career ambitions.

      At that point if you’re with women like that, just pay for hookers, it would be cheaper and they probably care about you more than these broads.

      It’s scary how transactional relationships are now a days. I mean they’ve always been that way but there were higher expectations back in the day.

      Now it’s a bunch of people negotiating physical intimacy for a dinner date that can’t be more than $125. Or treating men like ‘tricks’.
