Date or Hate

[southbiochem]

Date to all you say..you and me, given our patterns of behavior can very well make it work finding a middle ground

while we're at it

Oh trust you me, I am not pursuing the (Latin) American Dream. My material desires are limited to a place of my own. Whether that home has uber fancy things I could care less, whether I have a car I could care less. Whether the actual place is something uber big or whatever, I don't care.

What do I work 2 jobs for? Well, to pay off my student loan hopefully in less then 10 years. Also my big sis is a teacher..hence, economically dependant on me.

Family is a big deal here in the ye old Catholic-influenced countries and damned I be if I don't help her (not that I don't want to of course)

What happens with Bob and his vultur children, Bowyn, would hardly happen here, even though when we do have our own shitty flaws here "South of the Border": the "clan" mentality for example, where even your great grand parents, granted they're alive, think they have a say in what you do.

But the point is, someone in this world is economically dependant on me,

I barely bought myself a Nokia 100 (yeah, 2007 stuff, really outdated) cause I don't need a complicated phone and I only did it cause I washed my previous one along with the laundry.

I buy clothes for sure, every 2-3 years or so. Nothing overly pricey.

I share the house expenses with the parents. Other than that not much more expenses.

Ok, I grant you the fact that even considering the above, having 2 jobs is not necessary.. I am simply a work-o-holic. And you're quite correct it does not actually make me happy, if anything I use it to not have a minute left in the day so I won't start thinking about my unhapiness

But my key word Bowyn is STABILITY. To have a base.

My sister had appendicitis this year. Where do you think she got the money for medical expenses. From me.

I will not have myself be like her, sir. I do not what anything to happen all of the sudden and find myself I don't have how to pay for what it will cost.

Stability is of the utmost importance to me because I'm monogamous-oriented, however that WILL cause me trouble when I dive into dating, I want and will make long term plans, and long term plans require a base from which to make projections.

You are a 1966's child in Cali...forgive me if I'm wrong but you must have some "flower child" on you. (yes, yes other things also went on with you)

I am a 1987's child in Chile. Conservative and structured behavior is within my mindset. I will never enjoy freedom if it means taking uncalculated risks. I will not lift a finger to move out there if I don't have a clear budget with which to work.

See what I mean?

^All of that shit^ D/H
