[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]How do you know a guy is a loser?

I’m dating a 29 year old who has a masters degree in a liberal arts field, has been consistently employed since he graduated and gets promoted every year even though he currently only makes 100k. He works a lot and seems capable in his profession.

The red flags that seem loserish to me:
- beholden to his mom. Must see family twice a week. It’s very hard for him to break engagements with them. 
- his mom buys him clothes. He never shops for himself.
- she also texts him to remind him to get his hair cut and go to the dentist.
- his friends are so immature. Either underemployed or are just not ready to settle down at all. Approaching 30 and none of them are married.
- he doesn’t have any hobbies or passions outside his job. He plays video games and reads.
- eats poorly. Doesn’t excercise. Sleeps in till 1 pm on weekends.

Am I being too picky? [/quote]

OP - my DH met most of the things on your list (minus the mother issues - she was abusive and not involved).  Never shopped for clothes. Literally never went to the dentist.  First friends to get married did so around 29.  No real hobbies other than college football. Loved video games. No books. Ate poorly. No real exercise. Slept in.  In fact, i did most of those things too in our 20s.  Dh shockingly only made $55k when we got married when he was 30.  Now he makes $700k and is a highly thoughtful involved husband and dad.  You're an idiot to focus on this list. [/quote]
