But OP is too shallow to understand that. |

| For the second date, he wanted to make a good first impression. For his second, he felt comfortable enough that you would understand that he doesn't have a flashy car and opened up more. Sadly, you are shallow and judgmental. Don't see him again. |

Based on OP's writing style, she's not too intelligent either so probably can't even land the guys she thinks are deserving of her. Oh well, she will be back in a few years wondering why she's 30 and single and worried about having kids. |

| This post makes me sad for nice guys out there. This was my husband- we have been married for 15 years now. He loves me and we have 3 great kids. |

This post gives me hopes that the shallow, spend thrifts will stay away from the nice guys actually.... Yeah, Op, any recent college grad that can't afford his own swanky place and flashy car is a Loser - avoid, run. |

| There is not one single red flag or "hmmmm" in what you said was your experience, OP, except maybe on his end. |

| OP, what do you do and how much money do you make? (And I'm not asking about the allowance your parents give you). |

| another case of a good guy (aka nice guy) finishing last. OP will probably end up (on her back) with an asshole/narcissist who will eventually leave her. |

I would call it nice guy dodging a bullet. |

Agree. When I met my husband, he was driving a beat up Honda Civic covered in dog hair. He was a struggling grad student. The car didn't bother me in the least. I would be more alarmed if a 23 year old spent on something flashy rather than saved all that cash for the future. |

+1 My guess he that he is letting you know up from that he is close to his family, non-materialistic, financially responsible and not rich. He is likely weeding out the shallow women with full disclosure. |

+1 I think that's exactly what he's doing. |

| Unless it was gross (still full of trash, was never cleaned?!) or dangerous (smoke coming from hood and loud noises) I wouldn't care. |

It's tempting to criticize the OP, but after seeing so many posts where the wife is resentful towards her DH for only making $130K, I actually think OP should be applauded.
We should encourage materialistic women to be open about it, so they can shack up with materialistic men. This is better than forcing them to hide who they are, only to end up being miserable when they marry a cool, laid back guy who just wants to work 40-50 hours a week, and have time for hobbies and his family, etc. |
