Why do you hate my boyfriend?

Well, i guess so was his, right? i mean all exes are the evil ones. so you are both fat, with kids, poor and evil exes. a dream couple

Ah, the great feminists. thinking that a woman should throw away her life and wishes for a kid

well sometimes poor people choose to be poor.

let me think of an example...hmmmm

when they pop out a kid they can't afford. and when going to university invest into a worthless degree like english or women studies

Oh, and if there would be such a great, smart guy with a bright future and great personality, why would you want her to settle for someone with such a low self esteem that he would be with her out of fear to be alone, even though he could do much better?

You making this post is only one part of it. You are ALWAYS making excuses for him. Defending him doesn't really seem the right wording because it seems like so much more than that, like you're trying to convince us that he sure is swell.

I love the hate, it makes me all warm and fuzzy inside.

Um, you seem to be calling me poor an awful lot when to my knowledge you don't even have a job or a degree. Hypocrite much?

i don't see how it makes me a hypocrite. poverty is an undesirable characteristics when people look for a partner. i do have it as well which i am not trying to deny.

in your case it also exists, combined with all the other ones i listed. it seems funny to me when people think that you could do better than your bf considering that there are so many things about you that a "perfect guy" would want to avoid. the more of negative characteristics you have the less likely you are to get one

But see...Steven's getting a new job that will turn into a decent career. And I will have a degree, and we won't be in poverty. Times are tough now, but they won't always be

well, again, you are both on the same level. you both have something that might or might not turn into something. i don't know what careers meat packers have and your degree is one that a lot of people get and then go back to school to get another one since it didn't bring them much.

same goes for all your other undesirable characteristics. he has them all as well. which is why, you are not too good for him and he is not too good for you.

His new job is not a meat packer. I said it was within the meat packaging industry. He's a government employee and will be working inspecting poultry to make sure it is safe for human consumption.

I will have no problem getting a job where the two of our joint income will be enough to have a decent living.

I'm not worried about it. I don't even care that you think I'm trash and that you think he's trash and that we deserve each other. I don't see the need to keep rehashing the fact you think with Sarah and others are wrong when they say I can do better when I don't question it. I don't care really if I can do better or if he's the best I can do and I'm just settling.

I'm happy with what I have

if you don't care what i think you don't need to argue with me. i am actually arguing with people who for some weird reason believe that he is trash and you are not, lol

I'm just bored.

i am sure we all are

Out of everything you said, that's the only part that really matters.

If you don't care what others think, then why ask?

It wasn't a completely serious post.

Speaking of that, I did think of poll options I could have used like Starfish suggested. Guess I'll have to wait til next time to do that.

or just make a new thread now!

I figured that would be too much too soon.

you might be right. let's spread the fun

SEE?!?! QTGIRL KNOWS WHAT I'M TALKING ABOUT!
