Well tell me why she didn't respond back when I said APT? lol

Because she could tell from the rest of the convo that you were... too unusual for her?

Now not only do women want you to live alone, but you have to be in a big a$$ HOUSE. LOL

The last time I checked a studio apt was a lot better than

My Mom's house
Homeless Shelter
A roomate


Dating continues to be crazy in philly.
Run the other way lol. This maybe out of topic but a primary House is not always a good investment unless you plan to live for at least 10 years there. Some people are way better off renting and investing there money elsewhere.

How is she supposed to know you haven't saved money? I'm assuming on your first date you didn't say, "Hi, nice to meet you, I'm completely broke." In that case, I agree that it might have been silly of her to ask if you were upgrading your living situation.

Many people who live in studio apartments do so because they're saving for a down payment on a house. It's not a ridiculous question. If the answer is no, just tell her no. Not everything is a personal attack against you.

In the US city where I live, houses and apartment cost the same. I take it that's not how it works in Philly? Maybe she is from my city.... or another with similar config.
Negative. Housing has OTHER costs and the apartment does not.

I thought you considered that to be an inappropriate question to ask someone on a date. Doesn't that make it even less appropriate to ask a stranger on the internet?
