Save Money - Stop Dating

Repeated arguing, fussing, fighting, and using the silent treatment because one is going through difficult financial times will disrupt some of the best relationships.  There is never enough money to date, to pay baby-sitters, or to finance a trip.  As long as the money is coming in, some partners are happy.  But when money is limited or is all tapped out, the negative attitude shows up and stress levels rise.

"Sorry honey, I can't help you with that...I really wish I could but...well you know we spent quite a bit of money last time...and well you know I really don't have much...I'm sure you understand."  But the eye-rolling, deep sighing partner with a chip on his or her shoulder doesn't.  This person might cover disappointment up with a smile, but a loved one or friend will know the truth, "Why did I get myself involved with yet another broke guy/gal?"

When it isn't your money being spent, you have no choice, but to grin and bear it when a partner shares stories of his or her money woes, you didn't lose out on anything.  The best thing you could do is offer to help.  But when it is your money that is long gone, you have to find a way to get more.  So many people want the handsome guy or sexy gal, but they don't think about how much it is going to cost them to keep that person entertained.  Attractive people typically have many people who are willing to date them.  You might wish that special someone only wants to be with you for the sake of love, but the reality is that money and assets help with keeping romance alive.

When you find yourself often complaining about money, disputing with a partner about it, or doing sneaky things to save or get money, you might consider taking a break from dating.  The truth is, you simply can't afford it.

How to Spot a Self-Absorbed and Conceited Partner Who Will Probably Cheat on You – Warning Signs to Look Out For

Everyone has a different perspective of what is considered attractive in a partner, whether it be a great smile, intelligence, or a sense of humor. However, others look for specific qualities when dating that they know will always lead to heartache – a self-absorbed and conceited partner. Dating such a person could lead to an unhealthy relationship filled with insecurities, jealousy, and constant drama. Identifying the early warning signs of such personality traits can save you from heartbreak in the future. 1) Narcissist tendencies If your partner is constantly talking about themselves or making everything about them, it may be a sign they are self-absorbed. Such tendencies are often portrayed as an overinflated sense of self-importance or arrogance. 2) A lack of empathy A relationship should be a two-way street, with both partners shouldering their responsibilities and being there for each other. However, some self-absorbed individuals can lack empathy. They may not care abou...

Finding Love: Location, Challenges, and the Search for True Connection by Nicholl McGuire

 When it comes to finding the right person to date, location can play a major role. According to the US Census Bureau, there are certain states that have larger populations of single men and women than others. Based on data from 2019, Washington D.C., Alaska, New York, and Hawaii had the highest percentage of singles among those 18 years old and over. On the flip side, North Dakota had the lowest percentage of single people in the 18+ category. Although these numbers can provide a better understanding of where to find potential dates, they don't tell the whole story. Singleness has different root causes depending on individual circumstances. For example, some singles choose not to date for religious reasons while others may be too busy at work or school to focus on their dating life. In addition, many people who have recently moved to a new area may not yet be familiar with the local dating scene. For those looking for love in all the wrong places, relocating may be an option.
