"I don’t care if he sleeps in a nest on the floor and gets shit on the shower head, he's my rIdE or Die"

gigi_chi · 2020-07-03T13:19:17+00:00

I can’t believe men have brainwashed women enough into believing standards are gold digging 😩😭

Lindseyj66 · 2020-07-03T13:28:46+00:00

Lol my friends say this is why I’m single, I don’t give enough “good men” a chance. I don’t want a man gold digging off me 🙄

lluuni · 2020-07-03T15:25:21+00:00

It pains me to think of my young sweet self who used to believe this. Turns out the reasons these men are sleeping on bare mattress on the floor and chronically have no money are almost always self imposed. There’s absolutely nothing wrong with a woman wanting to date someone financially stable. I can’t believe society paints this basic standard as vanity.

Btw I was at a low point in my life were I could barely afford rent and had to sell things to get by. The last thing on my mind then was dating. Smart, HVM men going through financial crisis won’t waste money dating during that period. They will always make sure to get their lives and finances in order first.

This situation is maybe acceptable in your teens (just maybe not even a full hearted yes) and just completely a red flag in your 20s. Trying doesn’t mean anything honestly, if you’re that messed up in your 20s LATE 20s, I’m not bob the builder. Get it together.

hotchisbae · 2020-07-03T15:07:35+00:00

My ex boyfriend used me for everything. My family has quite a bit of money and he just coasted along unemployed and not In school while I juggled a full time job and full time grad school. We lived together and I fronted all the bills and everything. He was such a gold digger!

ErikaNaumann · 2020-07-03T13:19:16+00:00

Sucka women hahaha it's a nice way to say pickmeisha

Myplummms · 2020-07-03T15:18:27+00:00

So women “date potential”, and are left holding the bag, when he used your time and energy to level up and leave to another woman. You are not Bob the Builder! The only person you need to work on/invest in now is yourself. He has the same 24 hours the rest of us do.

jucamonole · 2020-07-03T14:03:58+00:00

Umm... nope! I have had the displeasure of meeting someone who had nothing. I built his ass up, and he drained me. Now I had to restart my life again while he’s in his comfy home. F’ THAT! Get on MY level or “boy, bye!”✌️ I am not here to clean up after no man. I am not here to be his secretary, maid, personal driver, none of that. Treat me like a queen, and I’ll treat you like a king. The second you treat me like a peasant, “c-ya, fucker!”

Fatt3stAveng3r · 2020-07-03T14:13:04+00:00

At first I was like >:( but then I was like :-P

TheOGJammies · 2020-07-03T16:21:04+00:00

ETA some of y’all clearly didn’t read through the last sentence 😐

denverkris · 2020-07-03T15:59:49+00:00

These women be like "My man is great, he even washed his ass last night without me having to ask"

veruscka · 2020-07-03T15:55:15+00:00

Having basic standards ≠ being a gold digger 🙄

honeybeeroll · 2020-07-03T13:42:00+00:00

How can he treat you well if he has no money and no basic standards for himself?? Which he clearly doesn't have bc he's unemployed and sleeps on a mattress on the floor 😂. Bc tl;dr, he's a loser lol

gcthrowaway2019 · 2020-07-03T14:27:15+00:00

Trying to do what??

kmblue · 2020-07-03T15:31:49+00:00

Oh I wish I could insert that gif. I was ready to roast her lol

lonelybones1 · 2020-07-03T13:20:43+00:00

Ah the typical name-calling if you don't agree with their pickme opinion.

ovra360 · 2020-07-03T13:51:15+00:00

That’s great if she doesn’t care about those things, but how does it make other women gold diggers for wanting to be with someone who has basic life skills and has their shit together?? It’s not even about money

MoreMochaPlease · 2020-07-03T19:25:12+00:00

She almost got me 😂

xNayxNayx · 2020-07-03T23:06:27+00:00

Some real tea? My ex slept on an air mattress in the dead of Boston winter (those shit’s hold NO 👏🏾 HEAT 👏🏾 !)... with no comforter... just a thin fleece blanket with a picture of him and his daughter from one of those sites where you can have pics put on things. He didn’t want me to sleep at home... In my real bed... With a down comforter and heated blanket... In a room twice the size of his... And food that didn’t come from under a heat lamp at 7/11.

Guuuuuuuys... I wish I could say I didn’t sleep on that a single night. But I’d be lying because I slept on it almost all winter. The last straw was finding out his son he said was dead... the son to whom he has an entire memorial neck piece TATTOOED on his neck and chest... actually wasn’t dead. HE was just a deadbeat. I was the pickme of pickme’s for him. You ever be traumatized by something but only realize it after you’re out of the situation and the threads start unraveling? It’s like being hit by a train. 😞😞😞

Edited to add: he had the absolute, unmitigated NERVE to put one of those eggshell mattress topper things on this air bed like we weren’t sleeping on a fucking ballon.

warinmymind94 · 2020-07-03T16:08:22+00:00

Will she not care when it's her birthday and he doesnt do anything for her? Will she not care when it's their anniversary and he doesnt even remember? Will she not care on valentines day when shes watching her friends boyfriends taking then to fancy dinners and surprising them with goodies or Rose's? Will she care when they move in together and he doesnt want to get any real furniture or cleaning supplies "it's okay babe guys are low maintenance we can eat on the floor with paper plates" or "babe you need to give me a ride I cant afford a car or to give you gas money" Because this is where this cool girl mentality gets you.

2020-07-03T14:10:55+00:00

Willing to bet she's not like other girls.

HolaHulaHola · 2020-07-03T19:55:13+00:00

As an urban person, you can survive without a car if you have good public transportation.

But no job and no bedroom furniture?? Please....

If he can't even keep a job what makes him ever think he could keep me? I've worked all my life. When I was younger I had 2 jobs, sometimes 3 jobs at once (insane hours, I know). I have no respect for any man who thinks he can sail through life with no employment, thinking others will support him. Well, guess what, that sucker won't be me.

lisasimpsonfan · 2020-07-03T21:11:46+00:00

I don't care if he cheats on me with a hole in the wall with tits painted on it and gives all my money to his meth head brother, I am down.

AppropriateHoney6 · 2020-07-03T19:09:04+00:00

LMAO indeed..

anonymous385726495 · 2020-07-03T21:22:59+00:00

The goddamn mattress on the floor was the bane of my 20s dating existence.

I’m now 34 and still single and no longer date due to giving up, but at least I sleep in a proper bed.

Newwavesupport3657 · 2020-07-03T17:25:53+00:00

Omg... I don’t work or have a car right now (life circumstances but looking to cultivate my life,) and I sure as hell won’t date because of that. Why are men even seeking relationships when they still don’t have their shit together. I wouldn’t expect any of that shit either

The first half, I was about to say no sis ! Lol 😂

nocturnalis · 2020-07-04T12:52:47+00:00

So y’all didn’t read the title or the post... 😩

2020-07-03T14:12:59+00:00

I mean unless he was in a coma for 10 years, I don’t think I would do that lmao.

NiaBeaut · 2020-07-03T16:01:04+00:00

I’m fine being called a gold-digger. It’s always the men that don’t have money or who are stingy with it who have a problem. Men who treat women right don’t have any issues as long as she’s worth it. A truth I observed. 😗

provalonely10 · 2020-07-03T17:34:00+00:00

Lmaoooo got meee

aneedhelpaccount · 2020-07-03T18:54:29+00:00

Honestly a guy being poor if he works hard is one thing—not everyone comes from a background where they can be well-off no matter how much they work. But even a guy with a less-than-stellar job can have a nice clean house with actual furniture and a car and be an attentive and giving and caring partner.

100% of the time in my experience mattress-on-the-floor guys have been awful partners. It says so much about them. Whether it’s being lazy in the relationship or expecting the partner to clean all the time or so immature he’s trying to make a “statement” with his shitty floor mattress—I knew a guy like this. He also gave women STI’s he knew he had and listened to Swans and read shit like Don DeLillo, he made a lot of money and was into the ~aesthetic~ of a disgusting house because he thought it was artsy 🤮

EmpressMovements · 2020-07-03T20:15:31+00:00

Is it bad that I know all the AITA stories these hilarious comments are referring to 🤣🤣🤣

orion_metal · 2020-07-03T22:04:55+00:00

Sounds like brainwash... but ok.

If this person has no intention of self improvement and a solid plan for the future youre literally dating a hobo.

starsheepie · 2020-07-03T22:51:18+00:00

I used to really feel/think this way until I dated so many LVM bums & realized they are all trash. They will all treat you like crap, neglect you, & emotionally/mentally manipulate &/or abuse you.

Not worth it.

nosynobody · 2020-07-03T16:26:51+00:00
