Devious Journal Entry

What I look for in dating: I would like to take you, a girl, to this, a movie or share a meal at a restaurant,... will pay for the meal if pressured (or on the first date to make a nice impression) but if you want to pay for your half the first few times or agree to at some point forward, that is awesome and wins super extra points.
We could hang out and get to know one another a bit better.

The idea of someone else paying for the guy is pretty alien but in a progressive and modern society, the woman being able to pay her own way outside of situations where she is being treated seems fair enough, does it not?

What I am confronted with: Oh nonono, that isn't going to work. My parents only want me to be with a rich man (because they evidently have zero confidence in my ability to make any sort of decisions for myself or to survive in the adult world merely on my own skills).  Studying science and medicine is not respectable enough.  You are simultaneously too intense and too boring (how does that even? ). 

Or

Go be with one of your own kind, you freak!
(<- Um, hurtful! )*

Or
(*ticking time bomb*) : Her: You know, you are a really nice guy and everything...
Me: Hey wait a minute, I!
Her: (just wait for it)... ...but (here it comes, no use trying to figure out which wire to cut now, the countdown has already ended) we should be just friends...
Me: You? That? Oh.
Her: and do have a nice life.**
Me: Well, thank you for not insulting me with some contrite tripe about how: You'll find someone, some day.
Her (reflexively and insistently): You will.
Me: Goddamnit.
Her: Okay, what are you so grouchy about?
Me: (Not like it's really your problem or anything, but literally) Everyone says that (to me. All the time ).
Her: You're weird. Leave me alone.
Me: Goodbye. *Under my breath*_{and good riddance!}
Her: What was that?
Me: *Leaving and silence*



Footnotes: <sub>*It has for the most part been my experience that I myself seem to lack what is considered a kind or a type.  With which I fit in.  You ARE making it evident you consider yourself to be incompatible and I do respect that but why so freaking hostile? We could be civilized adults about it and like two adults cease or cessate with a minimum of crude hyperdramatics, in theory.

**Have a nice life is often said in an ironic and sarcastic way which means go to hell and is appropriate for when you hate someone.</sub>

To me there would be little if anything wrong with being honest and up front by saying things such as: We should just see other people. 
You see, simply put the layer of false nicety is rather insulting to be frank.  Sugarcoating then getting mad if a person won't likewise sip from the same koolaid isn't going to win any character points, but since when was this about integrity? You can always just throw someone away to move on to the next victi-... er, I mean person.
