Shannon's Journal Discussion Thread, Vol. 8

[4Kingdoms]

...here in the USA, no woman would have a man who still lived with his parents at 30+.  
And I know this first hand, because I was forced to live with my mother in my 30's to take care of her in her old age until she died.  
I had no trouble attracting women, but the moment they found out that I lived with my mother - regardless of why - they lost interest and walked away

I am a caregiver. I take care of my 80 y/o completely blind Mom. 
I'm 58 y/o. Yes, we live together.
@Shannon is correct. Women don't want to compete with Mom.

Realistically doable: building money/ wealth and having a friend-with-benefits relationship, going on a date once a week.

@GreekGod22 describes the life path I decided to go on.
I work 60 hours a week. Go out once a week with a "friend w/benefits".
I have more than one "friend w/benefits" because of my work schedule and days off.

I know a lot of single men & women. 
They live alone and have no one they have to care for.
All they do is complain about is how life sucks.

Anything is possible.
Everyone's situation is different.
Decide what path you want to follow and make the best of your situation.
