Misandry is actually a dislike for manKIND (people); it's only recently in a quest to find an antonym for misogyny that people have taken "mankind" to literally mean men only.
I like the idea of the flowers decorated for Halloween, but I think you should stick with your idea of dressing as you do for work. That could be your "costume" and let her know at the same time that you value a work ethic. JMHO.
It depends. I have a very good job and support myself nicely. I would have to be able to get a comparable job in the new area, and he would have to be able to help support me in the meantime. I don't like being beholden to anyone, but I would do it temporarily if I cared enough for someone. Mostly I just meet men that want me to support them.
I think you should do what you want with your hair, but my opinion is to have some (the longer the better ). Although I don't mind baldING or receding heads, I find shaved-bald-on-purpose heads unattractive and scary.
I go in with an open mind, but I do have some idea of warning signs. If he looks around while I'm talking to him, drinks excessively, arrives in a taxi, etc. all are things that would be a turn-off for me.
A few years ago here on Long Island a divorcing man asked for the kidney he had donated to his wife back. It was quite a news story for a while. In that situation, he gave her his kidney, and then she cheated on him and filed for divorce within 4 years. His attorney stated he didn't actually want the kidney, but that he felt entitled to the value of it in the settlement.
I can't speak for other women, but for me it's really quite simple: I want to be worshiped, cherished, respected, and lusted after (not necessarily in that order).
My sister lives in Richmond Hill, approx. 11 miles from her job in Manhattan, and she drives. She says the 11 mile trip takes 25-60 minutes, depending on traffic.
I dated a guy in a wheelchair for about a year. He was moderately disabled, and there was a good amount of work involved in getting out and about with him. (Someone asked about the beach - I brought James to the beach on the Fourth of July and they had sand wheelchairs there to use free of charge.)
It was a bit of a challenge, but no greater than working around distance, work schedule, or other common issues.
Incidentally, we broke up because of his philandering.
And for me, honesty would be to say that I prefer he be at least of average intelligence, but that he be extra good at "man stuff," like fixing things and killing spiders.
I live in NY but don't use public transportation. I have a car that I make payments on, and pay for insurance, maintenance, and gas. That costs me about $700 a month. That's a lot more than $130 a month for everything!
And as for rent, rents may be higher in NY but salaries are too.
I get lots of emails from male? scammers but their approach is a little different. They say stereotypical things that men think a woman wants to hear... about how beautiful I am, how badly they want to know all about me, and how they are "god-fearing" men looking to get married.
Did you hear about the two antennas who met, fell in love and got married? The ceremony wasn't much, but the reception was excellent.
I went to buy some camouflage pants the other day, but I couldn't find any.
And my favorite one...
Mahatma Gandhi, as you know, walked barefoot most of the time, which produced an impressive set of calluses on his feet. He also ate very little, which made him rather frail and with his odd diet, he suffered from bad breath. Do you know what this made him? A super-calloused fragile mystic hexed by halitosis.
RE: body hair.
I think people obsess over hair too much... it's something that can be discussed between partners if it's that important to either one.
