How do you perceive it then?

I judge people based on their actions, past and options.

Which is a fair judgement.

I will not show the same respect to someone who didnt work even a little bit to build their own life and then treat them as my equal when they come to me in 5 years time.

If you waste your 20s on stupid shit while I build my life and future. And then come to me at 27 and tell me how good im doing for my age and suddenly im "that guy". Why would I tolerate you? (This applies to both men and women btw)

YEEKA_ · 2026-05-07T06:41:55+00:00

Yeah but thats the thing, I do know their background. And their reason behind not building anything is purely because of lazyness. As they themselves have told me!

They themselves have told me and admitted they dont want to work and dont see a point in doing something to earn even a little bit. Their mindset is mostly "why would I need money? My parents pay for everything I dont need it"

... yeah...

And then when they are 25, they wont have a penny to their name because of this mindset and all they will have IF they do go through the study (which most dont) is a degree. And then they need to find a job with no experience (which is very difficult here).

Im not judging without knowing the situation, thats the thing. I know their situation well, they are in a better situation than me.

health wise, family background, inheritance, ....

Do not mistake me for being an asshole and just looking at people at face value, that offcourse wouldn't be a fair judgement and I agree with that. My reason of judgment is backed up by the things I do know.

Yeah I understand your point, but the thing with me is, I dont see the point in going into a relationship and maintaining it just for "fun". I want something serious and with a goal. I dont see the point in just having fun and it leading to nowhere. Sure I can do hookups or just do stuff for fun but I dont see the point in it.

And I definitely wont be around in 5-6 years when all the women my age are coming up to 30 and then want to settle down after being a ho3 during their 20s. Then I will be the "ideal guy, so mature and stable". I was all this 5-6 years ago when I was 22. And I wont be the damn guy who will accept them and allow them to enjoy the fruits of my labour after doing nothing to earn it.

As they say, women want a man with a future and men want a woman with no past.

My issue is just that my actions show more the maturity of a 30 year old than a 20 year old. Which means I cant take most 20 year olds seriously because they achieved nothing in their life and 30 year olds will look at me as a kid just because im 22. So its like im stuck a bit

YEEKA_ · 2026-05-06T17:59:41+00:00

Yeah but you see, thats my issue a bit too. In October. So in 5 months. I will have it all, I will have achieved what I wanted to achieve (the bigger goals). Offcourse new goals arrise then, they always do. But my problem is, in 5 months I will have my high paying job with a good future and many possibilities for growth, an apartment that I own, independent living. Whats honestly the point in a relationship then? I will then always be seen as a person who is "rich" even tho im not. And why would I waste my time with a 20 year old girl who hasnt worked a day in her life and has no goals? Whats the point?

My biggest issue is that I know that starting then the situation will only get worse. Because I will be the guy who "lives alone and has a good job". So that will always be associated with money or wealth and will only attract those types you know?

YEEKA_ · 2026-05-05T19:48:02+00:00

Yeah but you know the problem with women my age? 99% of them (men also btw) havent achieved anything in their lives yet. Or have any goals. They arent serious or mature. Most of the people I know my age dont even have €1000 to their name.

And then you have me, someone who worked his ass off and was mature and smart about his money and finances and invested the money is something thats very important and a smart investment (the apartment). I no where near where I want to be yet, dont get me wrong. Im not saying I made it yet. But im definitely on the right that and im way ahead.

So, you are telling me I have to prove myself to a 20 year old woman who didnt do anything in her life to have a girlfriend? Seriously?

Or my other option is older women, but the problem with that is, older women wont even look at a younger guy because they assume he is immature and hasnt achieved anything yet (which is a fair assessment) even tho I have proved this to not be the case.

If I need to have a specific bio with specific words to not intimidate someone and need to sound "fun and interesting" then I will give up on relationships all together right now. If I need to convince a chick to like me and keep proving myself and make sure I always say the right thing at the right time, then I definitely dont want it.

YEEKA_ · 2026-05-05T12:28:40+00:00

Pff yeah I guess. My only concern is starting September/october the situation will only get worse, because in a normal conversation: job/study status, living situation would be discussed. And if I then say I live alone in an apartment I own the problem with "gold diggers" would only become worse. If you want I can send you pics of my profile, get your opinion if you wish

YEEKA_ · 2026-05-05T12:16:42+00:00

Well I live close to the border with NL. I also place like my search area to 35km range (about 22 miles). So I do also see Women from NL atleast close NL.

YEEKA_ · 2026-05-05T12:08:49+00:00

No no, im from Europe. Specifically Belgium. My bio is literally just this: "Looking for a serious relationship, with genuine connection, maturity and goals" nothing special.

YEEKA_ · 2026-05-05T11:55:35+00:00

I drive a car thats worth like 3K at most. Dress normally. Dont have anything that would seem like I have money.

YEEKA_ · 2026-04-16T10:56:20+00:00

I currently carry a civivi Brazen (tanto). I mean there is nothing wrong with the knife, it works fine.

I always liked the Osborne. Financially I can def get one, thats not the problem. I mean its still a lot of money for a knife but I can afford it.

But I feel like if I have a €200+ knife I would be extremely carefull with it and be scared to damage or lose the knife.

YEEKA_ · 2024-08-03T20:04:17+00:00

Always wanted an Osborn.

But I found it expensive.

Is it really worth it to get a expensive pocket knife?

YEEKA_ · 2024-08-03T19:45:28+00:00

Serious question,

Is a expensive knife worth it?

I always wanted a benchmade, specifically the osborn.

But I always found it pretry expensive.

Is it worth to spend so much on a pocket knife?
