    Ok see, THAT makes sense.

    Also helps that I don’t look at prices anyway(not that that behavior is a good thing, I still need to budget for disposable income) unless something looks stupid, like a $200 steak (There is a place here with a $70 steak, I’m tempted to try it one day).

      Yeah I would definitely not talk like that to anyone you’re interested in. You have all the subtlety of a bull in a china shop. Don’t be this guy

        I didn’t interpret what he said to be a script I should use. It was more of “don’t be afraid of actually using disposable income.”

          how the hell would I say I make $150k/yr

          There is a place here with a $70 steak, I’m tempted to try it one day

          That’s a good point, but it’s still 2.5x the median income for the area I live.

          These are red flags that will ruin your chances and if you are acting differently towards women, stop acting and just stop trying to humble brag about your income. It’s a lot easier to not try to trick people

            Ok so yours actually made me re read the post because I was seriously concerned people were throwing all this shit around.

            I may have misread the post.
