[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Op, you need to start meeting and dating actual women before you invent the perfect one in your mind. You have been so focused on your goals that you’ve lost touch with the real world.

Find love first, then find the financial planning and life arrangements that work for you *together.* It’s a fools errand to think you have it all figured out by yourself and then demand that a self-made millionaire waltz in and agree to do everything your way. [/quote]

Great advice.

Also, OP has a very rigid view of his future and his future spouse. Life just never works out like you plan it, especially when you insert another person into the mix.  Maybe she will want to work at some point. Maybe they will both want to travel and need to find a way to pay for it. Maybe this fire Chick drives him crazy or vice versa. Or maybe he stops playing the guitar and chooses to volunteer.

I'll also add that you are passing up on a big opportunity if you don't explore your options overseas. You will likely choose to be single if you take this route because you'll be having so much fun. Cost of living is easily 50% less as well.

You need to go somewhere else to get better advice. Most of these women aren't offering constructive advice and are just gross. Maybe talk to other FIRE types.[/quote]
