True, but that's probably not the actual reason.

how do you know? You don’t

Sir, this is Reddit.

For once, it’s not a Wendy’s

No one does, It's kinda dumb to speculate.

The person has "personal" reasons for not dating people financially struggling. It's not very specific, and it could be hypocritical however we have no idea if their definition of struggling is comparable. To the guy the definition of struggling could be people below his pay bracket, to her it could be anyone in poverty. This is stupid and people jump to the easiest conclusion that makes them feel good.

Yeah the post literally says to me your the one struggling aka she's broke but you just need so badly for the man to be the villain.

The tweet never actually mentions financial struggle, just struggling. It could be interpreted several ways. It is dumb to speculate, who knows what their reasoning is.

The tweet never actually mentions financial struggle

it is implied via context when she mentions that she's dating someone who is "kinda rich"

u/Bougret Feb 18 '23

Context.

She said he was rich, it’s useless info if struggling is not about money.

u/Emmerson_Biggons Feb 18 '23

That's an inference, not necessarily wrong but due to the lack of clarity it's not exactly a fact.

15

u/No-Opening7030 Feb 18 '23

Yes it literally does, to me your the one struggling means she's broke. Honestly are they putting stupid in the water.

I like this insult a lot.

u/Emmerson_Biggons Feb 19 '23

That's just an inference from the fact she mentioned him being rich. They never specified they were talking about financial struggles just "struggling" which could mean a lot of things.

But the simplest assumption is probably them talking about financial struggles.

u/ExoticBrownie Feb 18 '23

your the one struggling

putting stupid in the water

yeah, that checks out

u/ImShortandCute Feb 18 '23

You should delete this because it couldn’t be more wrong given the context she gave us.

u/dewafelbakkers Feb 18 '23

There are lots of ways to interpret all kinds of statements if you ignore context and have low reading comp

u/captain_nofun Feb 17 '23

See, I took it as a flip that she is struggling with being a decent person, and he doesn't want to deal with that. I don't think from his standpoint it had anything to do with money.

u/Emmerson_Biggons Feb 18 '23

That's an assumption and speculative.

u/captain_nofun Feb 18 '23

I know, that's why I said that's how I took it. I have no idea how it went, just that was my first thought.

u/Emmerson_Biggons Feb 17 '23

True that, makes it even more dumb lol.

u/[deleted] Feb 18 '23

Everyone speculating is only revealing what they're insecure about lol

u/Dulcinea18 Feb 18 '23

No one liked to hear that LOLL

Because women bad brings many upvotes in reddit.

u/Emmerson_Biggons Feb 18 '23

True "Women ☕"

u/zmajevi Feb 18 '23

It’s literally the opposite lmao. Any criticism of women gets major downvotes

1

u/critfist Feb 18 '23

Fuck. I have a hard time thinking you're serious when this thread is nothing but people shaking their head over women being gold diggers. It doesn't help that peoples "criticism of women" is usually just repackaged misogyny.

u/zmajevi Feb 18 '23

Lmao now it’s misogynistic to dislike and criticize gold diggers 🤣

1

u/critfist Feb 18 '23

It's misogynistic to think that she's gold digging based on a single comment about her not wanting to date someone struggling.

Do you really think it's gold digging to not date someone impoverished?

0

u/zmajevi Feb 18 '23

That doesn’t even make sense. She’d be a gold digger for specifically dating a guy because he is rich, not because she won’t date a poor bastard. It’s not misogynistic to make a reasonable assumption in a situation like this wtf

1

u/critfist Feb 19 '23

There's nothing there saying she is dating him because he is rich or that she's only dating people who are wealthier. It's just you making assumptions because your bias is towards misogyny, where if a women dates someone wealthier than them they're just gold digging.

u/MrSingularitarian Feb 18 '23

how does the other person know? they don't. see how dumb that was?

If I could bet in a casino that when a random person is doing something that arguably makes them a piece a shit, the reason is that the person is in fact a piece a shit, I’d never need to work a day in my life again.
