Eh, I can see how this would apply to alot of people, but not everything. I moved out of my dad's place when I was 25, and I'm going to be married in 3 months. I currently live in an apartment in the "kind of" ghetto, and am moving to the "Mature and Gentrification" apartment on April 1st. I never dated anyone for the sake of dating and a warm body, but I did have a few flings in college in between girlfriends.

<rant> I think it's a little rude to include the bit about dating a Republican in the article. Politics have zero relevance in the entire article, and it's a bit of an obvious cheap shot. Not all members of the party opposite yours are "bad people". </rant>

I have a good job as a Recruiting Director for an Educational Staffing Company, but up until last May I was Asst Manager at a Papa Johns.

I agree with some of the article, but other parts of it are a bit of a stretch I think. The author should do a better job masking his/her sarcasm too.
