    Chill and wholesome until “dating a 29 year old” was compared to buying a Maserati.

    Full body ick.

    The treehouse thing is good though.

      It’s a common trope of the male midlife crisis.

      You either buy an expensive car, get a young girlfriend, get body work and party, alternative lifestyle and fitness or go hippie.

      Maybe the point is that to both of these are status symbols even though deplorable (both actually but the dating a 29 year old moreso)

        Is a 40+ year old dating a 29 year old really deplorable? I agree that using anyone as some sort of status symbol fits that category, but the age thing surely isn’t an issue?

          No age is fine. Being in a relationship with sbd to brag about their body or age only is weird
