RE: Dating isn't Part of the Plan

in #blog • 12 days ago

😄At this point, dating is like a side quest. I've seen older people still get married regardless. So, it's not something to be worried about too much unless having your own biological children is a goal in life. What I've been learning lately is that, you never know what the future holds, it's life, anything can happen any minute haha.

Sort:  

I've been told my requirements before I consider someone as a potential date is too high. I'm convinced I'm just gaslighted to believe I got it wrong. The requirements include a stable job, insurance, manageable debt, and no existing problems with the law (history is negotiable). The familial disease screening is optional but true love wins. I asked women I know if they were ok to date a guy with crippling debt, and unemployed, you probably guess the answer by now. So I'm going to be a jerk if I required the same thing from a potential partner.

hahahaha that's very reasonable request. Where I am from, we believe in dating someone who’s our equal( people could argue this is bad) but so far, I've seen it's easier to date someone who's on the same level as you are.

Over here, before anyone get married, they have to undergo a pre-marital screening, so it's given and pretty basic these days as that's how they could go with their marriage registration. You were definitely being gaslighted but guess different culture, different expectations :D

Date someone who is at your level (learned this the hard way), do pre-marital screening, yes those stuff aren't the stuff people do here and I can get behind this idea a hundred percent.
