How rising living costs are changing the way we date, live and love

5 comments

I don't date, no love and living? No I am surviving. Maybe I would if I was living and didn't have worries of not being able to make it next month. And I think it's a problem a lot of people have. I used to buy food without worrying too much about the cost, so I'd just get things I think were good, but now I bring limited amount of cash and just spend for what I deem to be essential. Because I know I can easily go over $100 of food in a week easily.
Those wine glasses are fucking massive
- I've hated big wine glasses since they started to be used a lot. "But you can get your nose in it for the full experience!" Bitch, how big is your nose and do you smell out of the top of it?
  
  I'm not a wino, but it does smell different at the top and bottom, so I think a huge glass increases that range for the wine to express itself.
  My idea of a fancy bottle of wine was the $12 one, so it's not like was a connoisseur, and agreed these glasses look silly as all.
The cost of living means i typically work 10 hours a day, 6 days a week to make ends meet. As someone who moved to a new city in the past few years, this lifestyle has absolutely crippled me socially. There are other factors that have made it difficult to meet people, such as dependance on social media for socializing, but the hours i work is definitely a major factor. My job tends to have me working with/for people 2-3 decades older than me so there hasn't been a ton of opportunity to meet friends through work.
