    Hum, 75-100k for a finance something isn’t a lot I think. I mean, I know this is a joke but that sounds wrong.

    On a side note, I’d love to talk about with him about all the points under “topic to avoid”!

      Depends on what in “finance” and where. Assuming not sales or trading the salaries come down quite a bit depending on job level.

      I see you also like to poke the bear lol. Seriously with me no topic is off limit I’ll challenge every opinion someone has doesn’t mean I disagree with it.

      Also Boston Celtics are no? Because Boston is racist AF?

        Arguing for the sole purpose of arguing. Are you an engineer by any chance 😅

        I don’t even know what kind of sport the Celtics are a team of. Doesn’t mean I could not at least listen.

          Nope just the ADD.

          Celtics are basketball and my first love of a team before Toronto got The Raptors. That said their fambase is kinda toxic.

      YES:

      • You’re basically a centrist!
      • Both sides make some really good points.
      • Possible ice-breaker: “Have you noticed how nobody wants to work anymore?”
      • Possible ice-breaker: “Have you noticed we can’t joke about anything anymore?”

    I assumed this was a cheat sheet with the dating profile of someone they were meeting from online dating, but judging by the comments i misinterpreted. Why would someone need a cheat shret with their own name and not know what their own job is?

      My interpretation is that they’re bad at smalltalk and will forget basic facts about themselves. It would fit in with them needing a list of smalltalk topics to choose/avoid…

    Yeah… those old hippies with their “be yourself” and “let it all hang out” - clearly the key to life is to wear a mask. Such enlighten. So fulfillment.

      You can be yourself without a deluge of your own interests flooding the conversation. Unless being yourself of taking only about yourself and no listening. In that case mask on.

    Why do people care about incomes and jobs when they date? What do you care how much money i make, you ain’t getting any of it. My job is my way of making money and in no way reflects my personality in any way, so I don’t even like talking about work and capitalism on a date.

      Probably people who are looking to form a long term committed relationship where resources will be shared.

      Some people wanna live good lives, there is no other way of saying this! Is it unabashed to openly have this in your list of criteria? It is

      One of the very few, but strong reasons I don’t have long term relationships with woman! I would recommend for you to look up femboys OwO

        It’s fine for long term but I see it even in people who advertise they’re only looking for casual, and to be fair it only seems to be an issue if you’re a man. If a woman is a dog groomer making minimum wage, she’ll look down at a guy making slightly more. Tbf I’ve only dated women and not in a while, but I always found that society cares more about a man’s pay when it comes to dating

    Yeah, not being a kid and knowing enough about Five Nights at Freddy’s is a major red flag, good that he recognises that (but still bad that he even has to in the first place).
