I'll rub the tummy, too. Good post, Arrow. It was one of the most enlightened things in this thread.

All I can say is that I know guys in their thirties who live pretty much the same life as you and are heading nowhere.
There's a time to fool around and that time is from 18-30 when you can just do whatever you want and waste money here and there. After that, settling down will make it easier to make jumps and earn more money. Well it should be even easier now that the women are bringing money home too!
Damn I feel like a sheik now!!!

First off you imply that your goals in life are some kind of a standard. I don't want the same things in life that you do and not the same things make me happy. I don't ever want to get married and I don't want to live with someone. I don't find the house with a picket fence appealing at all and never did. I make great money, which is why I don't want women to know that because they find it some kind of reason to date me...but I don't want them to date me for that... I want them to date me for me. I'm only 25. Though I think any life style is exceptable as long as it is survivable. The time to fool around is when ever you want to fool around, if you can afford it...go for it. Life just is what it is, there is no one standard and no one cares.

Maybe that's why men are relaxing a bit, because the women are earning too. I can't imagine it must have been much fun being the sole bread winner for a family of four or five, back in the day.

Surely, you can't just generalize that ONE situation? Granted, there are always exceptions. But dating 40 year old basement living, mother leechin' nerds is FAR from "cool". Plus, I guarantee if these 20 year olds fathers/brothers found out 'bout it, I guarantee their bollocks would be chopped off and fed to the pigs. Cos' I know I'd do it if I found out my little sister was.

I couldn't do it. I've been living with my parents for about a week and a half now since I got back from overseas and I'm already starting to feel like an underdeveloped retard.
My parents are well-off financially, I get on well with them and they're more than happy to have me at home, so it would be so easy to stay here and I will for a couple more months while I get some savings together. But as an indefinite arrangement... I'd feel like a failure, a soft cock. Like I couldn't hack it in the real world. And that I was missing out on an important part of my youth.
