To clarify, when I speak of living arrangement, I mean a whole host of things that do not make it condusive for me to meet or take out women for a date. For example, if your finances are in bad shape, you are generally poor and are working at a low-wage (relative to recent inflation/no raise to off-set cost of living costs) full-time job, and then you are also a caregiver for your folks, there is generally no time to get involved with anyone without it rocking the boat. It's almost to the point I would want a woman who could help take care of my mom/folks rather than even getting intimate. This is a small home as well and there is little area for even another person to live here. (Ie if it didn't work for my ex-wife in 2014, then I'm basically doomed "poor parents, poor low-wage full-time job, caregiver for parents). It's not a simple case like
@needimprovement250, or your case where your folks have money/wealth and can take care of themselves. It's really bad.
