holy crap, what job pays that much?

i believe my dad makes 56k or so a year? he supports our family of four+the dog, my mom is retired. we live on a somewhat large piece of property in the, i guess you could say country. we live in a log style ranch my parents actually built themselves ten or so years ago.. so maybe that makes a difference.

my mother is always telling me id need combined income (like me + one other) to survive in this day and age but we make it by fine, so its confusing..

i do agree though that its sad- how high the cost of living gets, and how little wages pay. its like no matter how hard we work people will always be struggling.

criteria? im not house shopping. i just wondered in general what people are able to afford today and what kind of jobs they have.

damn, what field do you/your spouse work in?

we were both homeschooled and met through a private social forum our highschool has. we've known eachother for almost three years, have done lots of calls and what not, and even met in person last november. we're trying to close the distance so we can date in person. and he will live in his own place incase we don't work out. he isn't "just some boy". you sound like every other arrogant person that doesn't think ldrs are valid relationships. and ftr he's only half the country away :)

honestly if you can't answer the original question then why are you still here? stop judging other people's lives and maybe get a life of your own if you have enough time to pick through mine like you know what's best for a relationship you know nothing about. traditionally couples moved in after marriage. or at least that's what I've been taught. sure maybe it's a dead practice because society came along and said it's dumb but that doesn't change how I feel. I see benefits in living apart during the dating stage. so what's it to you? damn. all i asked for was apartment advice 💀

no?

not practicing modern norms doesn't equal non traditional.

confused about what?

we'll try that, thanks :)

we've both mutually agreed to not live together before marriage :) it would be easier to just live with him but we are more traditional when it comes to dating so we'd rather go the hard route.

it's unsettling how whenever i see posters like this, the face on them looks oddly familiar

aren't they closed on Sunday?
