Credit has to be paid back (often with interest). Are you sure that's what you meant? :twisted:

well men are valued, judged, defined by their job, career, occupation, what they are doing with their life or what they have done with their life far more than women are, yes unfortuneately it's the way it is but that doesn't mean I have to like it or enjoy it.

I am sure that it's because women are all evil and only after money, not because you are being sexist, delusional and douchy.

Yes, but you get various discounts, miles, etc.

Are women debit cards?

I think a persons value system is individual, perhaps its just my perspective, men are just people.

I do not want to be exploited again, so financial independence is something I would value in a man. Don't care what he earns as long as its enough to support himself.

Another area where men have value is their physical differences, strength for example.
It takes me longer, but with the assistance of a hand cart dolly I can manage most tasks, occasionally though I cant and at that point upper body strength has tremendous value.


so if hes able to live off 700 dollars a month and deosnt' like to go out, that would be ok?

often these women place such high standards because they want to go out all the time and go on expensive vacations so they want a guy who can pay for all that. why don't' they just pay for it if they want it so much is what I don't get.


Sly your ideal?/what you focus on, seems very mainstream, perhaps you might find those who participate in alternative lifestyles to be more open minded.
There are no margins for error with 700 dollars i.e. savings for a rainy day, but with the right type of person the individual cost of living is reduced leading to a small savings fund. (for miscellaneous emergencies, not vacations)

There are more joys in life than the ones you purchase!

I think he meant the man is the one supposed to pay it back, complete with the interest :P

There is a clear line between idealism and reality, to think people are attracted by personality alone is delusional. No need to throw around straw mans and be rude to someone who is stating the way he or she experiences the world, which is statistically speaking a realistic proposition of modern dating. In your entire post history you do nothing but harass people who come here to vent, I wonder if this perceived toxicity is nothing but a mirror to yourself.

We men have no value all we are good at are making babies that is it! We have no other purpose, all that emotional crap is a waste of time and merely chemical reactions in the brain when it comes to being attached, there is no magic, there is no emotion or love this is life and fact. Life sucks, reality sucks, get over it and toughen up!Nobody cares whether you live or die just keep living and show the world who is boss and tell em to F off! That is my viewpoint on things! And trust nobody! It has kept me alive and free enough for this long! Hate also is very useful for survival and makes you strong and keeps others in fear of you! Keep alert, hateful and on guard at all times and you will not be weak and will survive! Everyone is out to get you so always be on guard, there is nobody you can trust!That is how I see it and I have lived by that motto and it made me a tougher and better person that nobody messes with!

I have subscribed to this forum almost a year ago and I just came to this subforum recently, so I don't think what you said is true. However it is true that reading these nice guys' posts recently annoyed the hell out of me. I am not using straw men, infact when I use their words against them they usually don't deny what I say. I'll admit that one time I misunderstood Boo and made bad assumptions, but I had no problem apologising for it.
The people I talk about keep ranting at women for no reason and yet then they show that they are more superficial than these women they accuse. Why can't I rant at them? Should I just pity them like most people here do? Why is their venting ok and mine is not? The reasons why I rant at them even make sense.
Should I be silent when I see people ranting at NTs or women (or NT women, Satan himself!) for no reason? Yes they make my blood become toxic. They make 9999 threads about how they are lonely, the world is unfair and women are evil, but then they show themselves to be no better. I am alone too without any real friend and that's what makes my veins boil, knowing that our sorry situation is not an authorization to behave as they do.
This been said if I didn't know I was so annoying, better avoid this place for a while, better leave this place to nicest people.

If we had no other purpose, we'd die right away the first time we had sex, like male ants and bees do.

Any kind of enjoyment in life is merely chemical reactions in the brain. That doesn't mean it's not worthwhile. That's up to you to decide, by means of more chemical reactions in your brain, of course :P

Not everyone needs to be out to get you, but it's wise to be ready to defend yourself against those who are.

I've managed to save some, perhaps not 50k and up like middle class people. but save for car repairs and saving up for stuff like a ps4. my car funds are low though after having to do a bunch of repairs.

750 is what you get on ssi. theres a few people here who get it to and manage to go out and do things and save. see its not really the amount but how you budget it. though we can't save more then 2k at a time. they actually encourage wasting money by spending it right away with that rule.

indeed. though without a gf to do them with, I'm left with trying to suck as much enjoyment out of purchases as I can.
on min wage here I would get 1,000 a month after taxes, though then I have debt payments and bills. I don't know where to find such people. I'm not a hippy free love 1960s weed smoking type you see. I would hope there are others like me out there though they'll probably mostly men :(
