Okay, I fully expect to get a ton of criticism for this, and I look forward to thoughtful, averse, responses.
I am seriously considering being engaged.
Background: I am incredibly young, 24, live in LA. I’m 6’2, in shape, and have hooked up with well over 50 girls in the past couple years. I make in the relatively meager 40-50k range, and have 6 degrees, all of which are in social sciences. I have dated two girls prior, one for four years and the other for 6 months.
I have been dating my current girlfriend for a measly 6 months.
So obviously, why would I get married?
The truth is, is it would be a major game changer for me, and most likely in a positive direction.
Being single for me is incredibly hard on my health, as I’ll stay out, drink often, and put myself at risk for STDs. I’ve already had multiple scares for various infections, and am still currently getting some sorted out. It’s not fun. I’ve somehow dodged herpes, but it’s sketch thinking that it’s possible I could have HPV, and not know.
Another huge factor is cost. I currently can save 400 a month, and that’s with no fun lifestyle spending. No trips to Vegas, no plane tickets, nothing. Drinks have to be done on the cheapest of cheap, and I keep a strict diet as much for health as I do for cost.
My girlfriend and potentially fiancé is a good catch, though I’m far from oneitis (which is another problem in and of itself). My girlfriend is attractive, completely devoted and lacking in any sort of red flags. She hasn’t had a boyfriend prior so I know part of her emotions are because I’m the first guy to come along and fuck her up mentally (she attended nursing school and has zero male friends, save for an orbiter who has a girlfriend already).
She’s sweet, dedicated, attractive and basically everything you want in a female. She’s basically a step up from my girlfriend of 4 years, who I finally dropped after wanting to be single.
So why am I considering this?
Well, I am completely self-made, my mother has no finances and my father passed away in poverty. I’ve worked since I was 17 and made enough money to get through school and just kind of keep paying my bills.
My girlfriend is finishing nursing school, and will be graduating debt free (thanks to her father), and is set to start at 80k a year, working 3 days a week, should she work 4 days a week, she’ll be aiming to make 110k+.
Starting off in life with a combined income of 150k+ would be huge, and is something that I wouldn’t be able to on my own without either taking some massive risks, or going through more school. She wants to be a mom, so she has openly said that she only wants to work until 28 or 29 before switching to working in education for a massive pay drop, but much better hours if you have kids. I prefer this, and am seeking to work in education as well. (Even if we both worked at a school, we would have a combined income 100k+, which would be comfortable).
I know I could wait until I’m older, but I’m kind of negative, and of all the girls I’ve met, she’s by far the top of the line in regards to relationship material.
Thoughts?
I would propose in the next couple months, and get married next fall. There'd be plenty of time for shit to hit the fan if there's something that would come up. I know every person she's ever kissed
