Date leftists? Like, actual leftists. I know, it's a small pool in America, but you'd be surprised what's out there if you join the right community.
You're going after people who buy into the capitalist heirarchy and being surprised it's all just shallow self-delusions. Idk, just seems self defeating.
Amazing that you turned this into a left/right argument. Are you the CIA?
A good chunk of the people I'm talking about identify as leftists.
Your political ideals also have nothing to do with your personal expectations and habits in relationships. Plenty of 'leftist' women I have met 100% expect traditional gender roles and aspire to be SAHM. And a lot of leftists I knew in my 20s are now hardcore right wingers now.
Hell half my liberal/leftie graduate school cohort is now support Trump/Republicans.
I think your definition of leftist and mine are quite different.
sorry, is there a test i can perform on people to know if they are 'true leftist'?
if not, you should create a 'leftist testing kit' like they have for covid so i can bring it on dates and swab them and know in 15 minutes if they are a leftist or not!
As a general rule, not believing in capitalism and income based heirarchy is a good start.
ok, so no leftists exist. got it. thanks for clarifying.
I think I've found another of your dating problems, you're not very good at listening and combine that with sarcasm as a deflection tactic.
correct. i don't tolerate delusional people who think they have some special super secret knowledge and are superior to other people based upon it.
Well, some people might see things different than you do, and it's always possible to learn something new by listening to them. But you seem to think you've got it all figured out and you have nothing to learn from others. So yeah, a part of your dating problems might come from that.
That being said, it's crazy that some people give so much importance to money in looking for a romantic partner. I mean, past 30 you should be somehow financially independent... going on a date with the expectation of meeting someone who could raise your standard of living sounds like something from the 19th century.
I agree. To me, money only matters as far as knowing that they can also independently afford their lifestyle. I don't need a leech in my life, but I also don't need someone to pay my bills or add to my financial future. If you have your life together enough to hold down a job that covers your expenditures, then you have moved into the dateable category, assuming there aren't other glaring red flags.
