I wonder why so many of them are lonely and why some have to become sex tourists to get laid? :thinking-about-it:

    or you could, you know, not spend 20k on a wedding and marry someone nice

    The wedding industry is a scam and I will never suggest I couldn't have done things cheaper.

    But sometimes you just want to throw a big party and invite every last friend and family member you know to celebrate a big life event, and if you've got spare cash to do it... YOLO.

    If someone told me they'd trade my wedding day for an equivalently valued stock of bitcoins from 2014, I'd still probably say "Fuck bitcoin its a scam, I'd rather have this beautiful moment with my loved ones instead".

    also true love naturally is just communal sharing of resources.

    Communal sharing of resources is a thing you do with loved ones. But I think true love is a sign that you just want to spend time with one another. You don't need to have a penny to share in order to feel love.
