Now ya know...just speaking for myself....even when I am off, I feel really guilty if s/o is at work and I am home all day nd nothing gets done. Usually what I do, is I get up and wash some dishes, run a load of clothes or sumn before I sit on my arse and veg out...and if necessary, cook.

That way when she comes home I can justify 4 or 5 hrs sitting in front of the TV on X box or PS3....LOL

Ditto alllll the way.

I've had days where I feel like doing absolutely nothing. When he comes home he'll be like "So...whatchu been doing all day? Go anywhere? Do anything? What's for dinner? Are the dishes and laundry waiting for me to do them?"

My point is, I'm a Type A and have found that I can't tolerate being with someone in a serious relationship unless they are also Type A. A Type A would go crazy working that type of job long term. It's not about whether they are good enough or not. It has to do with similarity of personality and compatibility. The money part isn't even part of the equation for me.

I guess I don't have to worry about that. (yet)

Well, when you do, remember that (as Daemonseid illustrated) the man who is available to do these household tasks can and should do them just as the woman who is available can and should. Don't let a man keep the dishes and laundry waiting for you if he wouldn't like it the other way around.

I know some nice Type A starving artists/musicians I could introduce you to. Don't crack your head on the ceiling jumping at that one.

I'd be totally fine with a starving artist/musician but a starving author/journalist would probably suit my interests better!

I'm also a big GLO and nonGLO social networker. The majority of men, in particular because manhood and low-wage jobs are perceived differently than womanhood and low-wage jobs, will not want to attend organizational galas and networking events where they have to mix and mingle with men with a higher education and/or income than they have.

The "what do you do for a living" small talk may not go over too well. It's like when Steve and Miranda first started dating and she tried to take him to the lawyer's ball. He had a bad suit and low self-esteem.

At least 1 of them apologized for being an a-hole

Xanthus shouldn't have apologized. If you're offended by Xanthus' (or madmax's) obvious attempts at offending you, PUT HIM ON IGNORE. It is something different if people are stalking you via PM, outside of the Internet, or around the Internet. Then again, there are highly regarded and unbanned GCers who have done that to some extent.

The above statements are directed at the Greekchat idiots. If you feel that applies to you, womp womp.
