When the bar is so low, yet....

I remember a guy I shared a house with back when I was younger coming home one day to frantically build his bed, which had just been stacked in the corner, because he was bringing his then girlfriend over. He'd been sleeping on a mattress on the floor of his room for nearly 4 months at that point!

I ended up moving out anyway because he would basically do no cleaning in the hopes that I would just do it for him and I was just his room mate! Joke was on him when I moved out and took all the furniture which I'd bought!

You know those crappy metal bedframes cost less than $100. Sure, you can hear them squeaking and shaking but at least you're not down on the floor breathing in dust bunnies and covered in dog hair.

Funny enough I just came across an article that showed humorous bachelor pads, typically college age or older men. I think my favorite was literally just a tv on the ground and a cardboard box to sit on. A lot used ironing boards as kitchen tables and camper chairs....Most of them looked like hoarders with the level of mess, laundry, wires, and dishes that were all over the floor, naked mattress, and spilling out of boxes. Someone explain the “biological reasoning” behind that, while same age women probably have matching towels, a dresser, and a full cookware set? 😂 Or at least soap and a closet....

Oh and then the guy with no furniture except a computer chair, foldout table, and three large monitors... these are the people that think girls only date rich chads because the thought that they wouldn’t want something to do with them is inconceivable and mind boggling lol.

There is no bar. The mattress is on the floor.

God I need to come in here and the tell the story about a guy I met when I was a bartender who tried to bring me into his room with a twin sized mattress on the floor without a sheet. Fucking comical night.

The difference is when women don’t have our shit together we work towards it.

I don’t have my shit together yet; working on it. Won’t date anyone until I’m in a stable place and have my shit together.

Men just feel entitled to date.. whenever.

This isn’t an exaggeration, this is exactly how they behave when you reject them or state your standards. They act like you threw knives into their chest.

throwaway93731 · 2020-07-14T05:58:07+00:00

The last guy I dated didn’t even have a mattress. It was literally a thin mattress pad type thing on the floor. He had a few blankets thrown on there, one of which was, I shit you not, a fucking sleeping bag. He was almost 30. How the fuck is that comfortable?!

Cobmobster21 · 2020-07-14T02:37:59+00:00

Why is this even a thing 🤦‍♀️

ihavenoideadwhatimdo · 2020-07-14T01:33:01+00:00

This and the men with twin beds into their 20s🤮

_wannaseemedisco · 2020-07-14T13:19:51+00:00

Also men need to spend the money to get some nice sheets (not nessesarily top tier but just some good sheets).. Sleeping in a properly built bed but terrible sheets that feel like sandpaper and holey blankets is still bad. I also do get having to start over and being on a budget. But a good night's sleep is vital.

I don't need to know the original content of the drawing to know the one who drew it is a goddamn fragile snowflake.

Sure bruh, here you are getting "stabbed" by some words like a freaking spoiled toddler, while women all over the world are being LITERALLY stabbed, molested, raped, murdered, trafficked, by MEN (and yes, some women who are monsters also participate, but sexual slave trafficking is by men mostly because guess what? The customers are all MEN)

_wannaseemedisco · 2020-07-14T17:35:28+00:00

While dating a guy I made a comment about men without bed frames and it was a few weeks later that he mentioned putting one together at his new place. He specifically said he bought it because of me. I'm glad he was open minded on that one, lol.

skyerippa · 2020-07-14T05:28:06+00:00

I don’t have a bed frame.. rip

winogrigio · 2020-07-14T07:07:54+00:00

My first boyfriend didn't even have a bed and I lost my virginity on a futon lmao

freebirdfly · 2020-07-14T03:54:46+00:00

Omg!!! I love this haha

miss_kay4 · 2020-07-14T12:54:13+00:00

Omg this one NVM I embarrassingly kept running back to... he had moved into his first place (just a rented room) and didn’t even have a mattress, just a blanket and a few pillows on the floor that he was sleeping on. He brushed it off by saying the Japanese slept on the floor and that it’s better for you. He tried to get me to have sex with him on this arrangement of blankets and pillows on the floor. That was the last time I saw him.

snejonopka · 2020-07-14T13:31:41+00:00

LOL OMG

shortywannarock · 2020-07-14T14:02:09+00:00

The last guy I dated wouldn’t drink anything but filtered water, but was too lazy to buy a water filter, so instead he would just fill up used water bottles from the fountain in the hall. I asked him why he didn’t just buy a $20 pitcher and he just shrugged and said, “yeah I guess I should” like it hadn’t even occurred to him.

whatislife2298 · 2020-07-14T23:53:38+00:00

Last ex I dated had the grossest apt with a moldy mattress on the floor. Never cleaned, and expected me to still spend the nights over at his place. gags if you can’t afford a damn bed, don’t date.

marykatiepants · 2020-07-14T05:10:09+00:00

Ok, I kinda get the no bed frame thing, tbh. I have 2 beds in my house, one with an expensive frame/headboard and another with a cheap frame, but I have both frames in the basement for storage because I like them lower (on just a box spring).

Cries in bedpost
