How do I tell a dude that I’m not interested in him because his aspirations are to be an Amazon driver while I have 3 science degrees and am about to run my own startup up w/o sounding bitchy? He’s cute but I need someone with a drive that matches mine.
literally just say you need someone with a drive who matches yours. then he'll say some shit about needing you to open his eyes and make him more ambitious and you're going to say okay come back and hit me up when you make it happen

The man he strives to be tomorrow may not be the same as what he strives for in 20 years. Not everyone know what they wanna do while their whole ass life in their teens-20s

if you see your own basic expectations as bitchy then we may be identifying a more fundamental issue here girl lol

you can just say "I appreciate your interest but I think we're at different stages in life rn" if you really don't want to be direct with him

🤷♀️ then you hook up with him and make it clear you don't want anything more, if that's something you're into.

How does “you're cute as hell however I don't think our long-term goals would match up, I hope you find what you're looking for”

He's going to take the compliment as an invitation to pitch the hookup lol don't give him that hope if you're not interested

Maybe. But I’m not putting my eggs in a basket of potentials.

Also he’s 26 and I’m 31. I don’t have time for him to find his aspirations. By 26 you better have career goals.

You’d be proud. And for him to come back with “need someone to support me” lol. Butt hurt man.
