Random, but i went on a date and it didn't go so well. I'm a bit bummed because I wanted it to, and disillusioned in regards to the character and integrity of the other person, of whom I had formerly assumed well of. He was very focused on money, made ill-timed and rude remarks about someone he'd previously dated as well as made note of girls who had been interested in him, sort of insulted his mother, and expressed his dislike of my home on account of it being "too cramped". The silent judgement of me after making my financial situation as well as my physical inabilities was unpleasant to say the least. There's a bunch more I could list and complain about, but I don't want to rant too much, I just wanna get it off my chest, I guess. I suppose I'm just disappointed and very miffed.
On a lighter note, I guess that's a bullet dodged. I'm glad I figured things out on the first date as opposed to being in a relationship with someone only for the mask to come off the moment you're locked into something.
For now, I think I'll probably just return to my books and my guinea pigs like the boring little hobbit I am. Life is good in my safe space, and I'm going to try and get some writing done. I hope all of you lovelies are having a wonderful day(or night), and best of luck to you in all of your endeavors!!♥︎

@AstroViola Rightttttt like I've been reflecting on it and I really did dodge something bad. The weird thing is, he WAS a really reasonable and pleasant guy from what I knew of him three years ago; I think he just got a good job, and having money really inflated his ego and made him unpleasant. And I do know that we as humans tend to peacock ourselves around people we want to impress in order to seem valuable, even if we often don't mean to, but I just feel that doing so through the flaunting of wealth is very tacky. It's frightening what money can do to someone's character and I'm almost glad I'm poor, lol. Almost. In a way, humanity is easy prey to greed if you're not careful. It's quite sad and very disheartening, and very much like the part in The Little Prince where he comes across the businessman counting the stars and claiming ownership of them: he does it not because he needs them, but because it does him the good of making him rich. And the good of those stars making him rich is that he can buy even more stars, and become even richer; but truthfully, he cannot pluck the stars from the heavens like one can pluck a flower or toss a scarf around their neck, so in the end his greed and proclaimed ownership of the stars is useless anyway. I think if you have what you need and can live comfortably, then that would be enough. Or it should be, at the very least. It's sad that it usually just isn't enough for people. Also, a cheesecake date sounds so nice T∆T) that'd probably be a lot better than the IHOP he took me to, lol. My standards are still high and I'm content waiting cause I'm still very young. For now, I'm just going to keep writing my book and dream about finding a man as good as the one I'm writing roflolol XD
