[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I didn’t have a money requirement per se...

Here’s my story:

I was again single at 36. Went on Tinder. Met a guy who was also 36, lived in a share-house, and was “thinking of going back to school.” I lived alone in a condo I owned and had an established career as a lawyer. The guy and I also didn’t click, but I thought about what I wanted.

I said, I need to date an “adult.” I’m a grown up now and I think I’d be better suited to dating someone with his own apartment (didn’t care if he was renting) and has a career (fine with what the career was, even if relatively low-paid). I also decided the guy needed to have graduated from college.

I wrote these requirements on a piece of paper - college, own apartment, career. And I also wrote down non-smoker, not currently in a relationship (or “it’s some complicated situation”), not addicted to another harder than reality TV.

This helped me. I found my husband a few months later. I was operating before as a romantic. I should date anyone, you never know, blah blah blah...

I found my husband, because I decided to stop wasting time with long-shots (based on different lifestyles), and trying to date someone who was at a similar place in life, and who also was looking for a spouse.

So not money, per se...[/quote]

I feel compelled to add that my therapist suggested I make this list. So free therapy for everyone. Or fodder to say I’m a narcissistic nutcase.[/quote]
