Gotta be the first option for me. If you want a man to be someone you talk to and who supports you emotionally and psychologically while you smash another man on the side, then just say that from the jump. Otherwise you just finna cheat
The shallow people are dumb as hell too. Yeah I make decent money, move on. I aint trying to hear about how you tired of broke people when you're broke ya damn self
I ain't never heard of an open relationship.
When I was "dating" it was always the woman who wanted the ideal guy "college" "9-5" "going somewhere..." I was that guy for a minute and I always said I was (which every guy should say they are or aspire to be, maybe....) But a lot of the times when the saw the grind, saw that I was out there, saw me making moves, saw me on the news it was

and "I'm not ready for all this......" A lot of them either wanted to be in a better place themselves before they started a relationship or just realized that wasn't what they wanted.
I always made good money for myself, had my own spot, own car, was doing the college thing and job + interning and for real networking (not online) and a lot of people think they want that then they get it and it's: whoa:
I've been with the same one for like a decade though so I'm pretty much out the game.
