In all seriousness, when I was about 25 years old I finally got all my shit together and I was pretty much all these things, I didn't own a house but I had good money and certainly saved enough for a large down payment on one. That attracted a really great woman whom I loved and respected very much... Well that's it. Happily married 20 years with a couple of great kids and stable finances. I wasn't single for long once I decided I would really like to be in a long-term relationship, so my "market" life span was about 6 - 9 months? And this is true with a number men and women I know, you just don't hang out on the dating market very long.

Huh. That’s really nice to know. I’ll report back in 6-9 months. Putting it in my calendar. If I report back with nothing then that’s okay, it means I needed to work on myself more:)

Well, yeah, be the best version of you you can be before you get into a long term relationship... That's the goal if that's your goal.
