It's probably multiple factors, but one of the first things that comes up in conversation during a date or dating apps or even just meeting people is: where do you work? And when people hear I work in grocery, it ALWAYS shows on their face. I feel like I need to stay within my 'class' and only find people who work in a similar job. Sucks yall
Find better girls and stop overthinking.
Gold diggers and classist girls exist but they are a very small minority.
The thing is, I don't think it's on purpose, it's just a built in reaction. No one is mean about it, they'd just choose someone with more money vs. me
You might have had some bad experiences but not everyone is like that.
I hope you're right
The most important thing is to believe in your self, be confortable with who you are and pace your safe wisely.
If you have issues with self-confidence it might be wise to sort that out first before dating anyone. Good luck bro.
