Basically, anywhere with a good Christian college in the vicinity.

2018-06-02 21:08:28 UTC  

that sounds like a pretty good idea actually

2018-06-02 21:08:36 UTC  

still, It'll be a long time before I can move to a place like that

2018-06-02 21:08:47 UTC  

I need to work for the next few years to save money, and after that I want to go back to engineering school

2018-06-02 21:09:02 UTC  

maybe then after that I can truly choose a decent place to live

2018-06-02 21:09:38 UTC  

Sounds like a plan.

2018-06-02 21:09:50 UTC  

Plus, you might meet someone in engineering school.

2018-06-02 21:11:07 UTC  

maybe

2018-06-02 21:11:23 UTC  

so that is all a while away.

2018-06-02 21:11:45 UTC  

I just feel left behind and a little betrayed by society

2018-06-02 21:12:15 UTC  

Just keep your chin up.

2018-06-02 21:12:24 UTC  

I dunno. Wish I could give you better advice.

2018-06-02 21:13:25 UTC  

does my utter lack of "experince" put me at a disadvantage?

2018-06-02 21:13:52 UTC  

Talk to someone else. I have the same lack.

2018-06-02 21:15:42 UTC  

still, thanks for trying to help 😃

2018-06-02 21:15:56 UTC  

Hey, I'm happy to.

2018-06-02 21:16:30 UTC  

One of the things I keep in mind is Chesterton's saying, that pessimism is the greatest sin. So I always try to keep myself and others out of pointless pessimism.

2018-06-02 21:17:28 UTC  

yeah

2018-06-02 21:17:42 UTC  

@Ironclad you think 22 is too old to be without any experince with females?

2018-06-02 21:25:20 UTC  

I think at 22 you should already have a family but that's just my Eastern European backwardness.

2018-06-02 21:25:42 UTC  

Ha! Backwardsness? I should think not!

2018-06-02 21:25:45 UTC  

@Orthodox Andy are you in good shape? Do you have a job?

2018-06-02 21:39:04 UTC  

I am a little overweight. I have a job, but it doesnt pay that well.

2018-06-02 21:39:19 UTC  

How little?

2018-06-02 21:39:25 UTC  

12.50 an hour

2018-06-02 21:39:29 UTC  

but that is not a lot in Washignton state

2018-06-02 21:39:35 UTC  

where the cost of living is getting out of control here

2018-06-02 21:39:42 UTC  

I told them!

2018-06-02 21:39:55 UTC  

I told them things would go wrong if they increased minimum wage!

2018-06-02 21:40:01 UTC  

Nobody listened to me!

2018-06-02 21:40:14 UTC  

Well, probably because I didn't tell the right people...

2018-06-02 21:40:17 UTC  

cost of living here has been getting crazy for the past few years

2018-06-02 21:40:30 UTC  

and really, it's been getting out of control since we enetered the new millenium

2018-06-02 21:41:19 UTC  

fwiw, I work as a composite technician in the aerospace industry

2018-06-02 21:41:34 UTC  

so, I guess that is at least slightly more prestigious than a job in fast food or retail

2018-06-02 21:42:10 UTC  

Sounds pretty cool

2018-06-02 21:43:07 UTC  

I guess I am a very poor candidate for a woman then

2018-06-02 21:43:31 UTC  

overweight, not in a good career, etc

2018-06-02 21:44:05 UTC  

Well the trick is to keep working on yourself

2018-06-02 21:44:13 UTC  

Believe me

2018-06-02 21:44:28 UTC  

Worked for 100s of ages
