I'm guessing most people who hit their midtwenties never having held even so much as a minimum wage or babysitting job, don't know how to make a grilled cheese, don't understand how vacuum cleaners work, and freak out over the idea of taking a community college class are not really on their way to making six figures.

When I was 23, I was the editor of a newspaper. I wasn't hanging out at home telling my boyfriend "Sowwy I didn't wun the vacuum," while I blinked at him with puppy dog eyes. Ridiculous.

Makes me want to vomit and right after that it makes me happy I am not like that and never will be like that.

Sweet and pretty my behind, she is a loser and a user and no one but those reading the original poster's words see it.

As I often say and said earlier:

Written words wasted on one who is not blind but cannot see.....

This is the kind of situation that we warn about in the inevitable "marriage is bad for men" threads. Here's a guy who's living with a woman with no skills, no income, no ambition, who doesn't contribute at all to the relationship, and he's even thinking about marriage to this woman. And you know if he did get married to this woman and came back in 10 years complaining that his wife doesn't do anything, all the dudebros would be patting him on the back in consolation that all women are greedy and lazy and would talk half his money in the divorce. Right now she's waving huge red flags right in his face, and he's willing to ignore them because she's cute.
