Anyone else feel like there’s a double standard when dating? A lot of guys seem to lose interest when I mention I travel every week for my current project. At the same time all of leadership = men.

Nope. All my current and ex BFs have been supportive of my travel. Some envied it. Some wished I was home more often. All were understanding and accommodating about it. Current guy makes dinner by time I get home. Pick a good guy who’s got your back. Otherwise dump him

Serious question - is there a reverse FIRE strategy? I like the idea of saving and retiring early, but the one hiccup I see (and sorry if this is grim) is if you die earlier than expected. I’d be worried that I would minimize lifestyle and fun for retirement at 50 but I’d die at 49. How about a way to work 9 months out of the year and retire/travel/relax for 3 months? This way you guaranteed your dreams/etc. are fulfilled

Ladies, love to hear your thoughts. I’m in my late 20’s with a handful of close gfs (most of them live far) but I have a history of losing girlfriends. I’m self aware to a fault and am very supportive/responsive but other than my core group, it’s hard for me to keep gfs around other than 6 month span. It’s happening to me again right now and it’s really hard, she’s going through something and pulling away/towards others when we have been VERY close before. Anyone else have this experience?
