Idk, saving something that is a complete deal breaker for a lot of people for the third date is kinda lovely. Don’t waste my time.

It's not a deal breaker for normal people, because most normal people have kids by that age.

Look, if you're 30 and haven't yet managed to cuff yourself to that gorgeous, prime, hot-body who shares your interests and isn't in an unreasonable amount of debt (for whatever reason) it's time to realize that perhaps your princess with the body of Mia Khalifa, an MBA, and her own condo has probably managed to find a man who meets her criteria by now.

Edit: Hell, at this point my criteria of
1-More teeth than kids
2-Does not weigh more than I do
appear to be too strict.

Lordy I just noticed people taking me seriously on my hot-take from politicians in current events.

I dated a girl in high school when I had already graduated. We were the equivalent of a Junior/Freshman age gap but were in the same youth group as teens.

Things were different last century. Still together though so yeah.

Less than that by about 2/3 or more if you’re careful.

I’m not saying my lack of snip is rational, but not everyone who uses oral BC is bad at schedules or is with a person who insists on blowing loads inside if something fucks up pill schedule or viability.

You mean you were 2-3 years older? No one cares about that, then or now.

I'd be fine with kids. I think I could shepherd a couple humans to adulthood a little less hosed up and stupid than average, and I frequently wish I had kids just to read out loud to (oddly specific I know, but there it is).

I just don't want to start in the next ~5 years.

I don't want kids because I would be a loving terrible parent, but I don't think I had to tell any of you folks that.

I really am trying to contain my damage to screwing up my own life.

At 30 guess as I keep getting older I'm just going to have to accept the fact that a non insignificant amount of women have a kid or two.

I'm not entirely against the idea but I'm pretty hesitant, especially when you're a few dates in and they're like "oh by the way, I have a kid!". I'd rather know something like that going in.

If they didn't address that on the first date that's kind of a really dishonest poo poo thing to do. If you're in a major city there are plenty of 30 something women without kids too; I've been dating an awesome educated 33 year old with no kids, a good job and a really cool pup for the last 3 months.

I'm 34, 5'7" and am about to start the final semester of my undergrad. Although I can't imagine dating with my circumstances if I didn't live in a large city. Be yourself, confident and don't get hung up on stupid poo poo.

The worst is when some dipshit shoots past your place and takes like 5 blocks to turn around. I almost always cancel out of spite even though waiting for a new driver means my ride will take longer.

If it's like my ride the other night, dude was chilling at his house and didn't notice he had a ride for 10+ minutes past the original 7 minute eta.

But he did have bottled water and snacks, so meh FIVE STARS :classiclol:.

Yep, deleted Uber a while ago and use Lyft exclusively. I too have heard they treat their drivers better, although here in DC people tend to drive for both Uber and Lyft and alternate depending on what’s getting them more calls.

I’ve also heard some naysayers claim that Lyft is just as bad as Uber but they’re less publicly evil about it. I’m still okay with my choice for that reason alone.

Yeah, dual drivers are the norm in both Milwaukee and Chicago. Some places I've been favor one or the other though.
