How sexy is your.. credit score?!
Recently, a guy on twitter declared “Women, you really want to impress me? Don’t post pictures of you in a sexy pose. Post up your credit reports from the top three credit bureaus!”. I’m paraphrasing, but it was pretty funny and kind of telling!
With today’s economy, men are working harder and harder for their money. They are just as impressed by financially healthy women as they are by women who are physically healthy! Perhaps even more impressed! If this isn’t a sign of the times, I don’t know what is!
How compatible you are is very important – and comparing credit scores could reveal a lot about what and how you two value the same things. There are even online dating sites that are catering to this notion. These websites let you sign up with your credit score rating as your main attraction!
What do you think this means for the state of dating? Is this yet another reminder of how much dating has changed?
Would you ever ask a date about their credit score?

dushawn – I just finished reading zora neale hurston’s jonah’s gourd vine. in the book she used the expression “god don’t like okra”. guess it’s a version of god don’t like ugly but the context was that he didn’t like slick/slimy people. lol.

okay. so a year or two ago a co-worker went gung ho, die hard on her diet/exercise/fitness plan. walking around talking about “get thin or die trying”. would I be terribly wrong if I asked her how much time she was giving herself before she keels over? just a random thought. lol.

Thanks for the heads up, @Me.lo, but this is the Aussie open — that booty you were watching was on tape delay, my friend. Your boy already saw it in live action overnight while on feeding & diaper patrol. Lol
Not to mention my new tennis eye candy, Sloane Stevens. Mmm mmm, that little chick has quite the tight little package working…
Oh, and howdy folks!

Off topic: I think the person that went in the bathroom last must’ve combed their pubic hair while in the stall. There were little curly hairs all over the damn seat

Ladies you don’t even know, you all have set in motion for some chick you don’t even know to get a thorough thrashing. I’m sure the fellas agree that, whoever the chick is, she thanks you in advance. lol
swiss You’re a daddy now?!? Dang, I guess I was gone longer than I thought. Congrats man! Let the sleep deprivation commence. Even if she is breast feeding, know that if she can’t sleep, neither can you. lol

I want a financially healthy partner. Not a millionaire but someone who works, manages a budget and is able to enjoy life once in a while. Having a peek at his credit score before hand may save many useless dates.
