Honestly, the lay out matters. I've dipped on men before because their living space looked juvenile. I don't know what red flag this is but internally, it's a no. I would never follow a guy into their room for movies, even if it was someone I had been seeing for awhile. As for the tv, it's fine if you don't have one. It's your space that is important.
In regards to a living space looking juvenile, how important is the prestige of the living space? In other words, does it have to be a "luxury living" type of place? At the moment, I am currently renting a one-bedroom apartment as I'm still in the early stages of my career (about at the halfway point for a down payment on my own property, but I digress). Here in LA, it's pretty common to be spending 1.8k+/month to live by yourself in an area that's not a crime-ridden dump with tents strewn around. Thankfully, I lucked out and found somewhere that's in a one of the nicer areas and less than half a mile to my office when I do need to go in, however it isn't one of these "luxury living" type of places with super modern bare interiors (i.e., my current place has carpet and not wood floors). While I could afford one of these places, it would slow down some of my financial goals a lot. I'm wondering if it would be better for me to wait until I own my own property or make more money before trying to date.
I went ahead and ordered a small loveseat and coffee table which will be placed in the area in front of my kitchen space and before the newly-created office space. Both should arrive within about a week. Outside of dating / relationships, I can see how this would be a bit weird: how would you entertain guests? Friends? Family? To attract relationships in your life, not just potential mates, you should have resources to provide for them as well (in this case, an area for them to relax and be entertained when they visit).
In regards to entertainment, I have my laptop, and an Amazon Alexa speaker to play music, podcasts, YouTube, etc.. Should I get more things for entertainment as well?
