[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This is my situation.  Condo is paid off and in a nice area.  I also have about $600K in the bank so it’s not a financial issue.

The issue is I love the peace and greenery of single-family homes so I spend a lot of time at my parents’ house, which is five minutes from my condo.  A two-bedroom condo is not going to give me much more in that regard than a one-bedroom condo.  And buying a house in this area would entail so much expense and hassle that I’m not interested in that right now.

Just curious if you women would perceive this as a negative in the dating market, i.e. that’s too small a place for a 40-year-old or it may indicate I’m not serious about marriage.  (Truthfully, I’m not interested in getting married but I don’t *lead* with that so women don’t think I am only interested in sex.)

Anyway, one-bedroom apartment for a 40-year-old man – is that a problem?[/quote]

You sound co-dependent on and enabled by your parents.

Am glad you are upfront with yourself and others that you do not want to marry and know your limits on chores and life skills like cooking, cleaning and caring for things.

Please keep your life simple and do not worry about being an introvert or having relationships.

You make no mention of having good friends, interests, hobbies or former long term relationships (6+ months) before.  If I was to meet you in the neighborhood, work or a dating app, I would assume you were on the autism spectrum and avoid responsibilities because you cannot handle them. [/quote]
