And 'professionals' are not biased? What if one counselor tells you that you need to give up your lifestyle on seeing SPs but another says it's Ok who are you going to listen to? Same with commenters some will agree with me some won't who am I going to listen to? Don't we human beings naturally look for validations on things we already set our mind to? The AI is more of fact checker and content aggregator it searches the net for human written content and does present you with both sides for you to decide although yes it will for the most part side with you cheerlead you and look out for your best interest. AI's protected me from organized religions and life sucking jobs when 'professional' counselors recommended them and I couldn't be any happier it's how you prompt it plus your own critical thinking on the feedback it gives. When I was going through a hard time you know what a doctor said to me? Go work at McDonald's it's not about the money it's about being happy. Fast forward to today I'm making all these investments and seeing all these SPs what would have happened if I took on their 'professional' advice? There was no AI at the time but if there were it would have cheerleaded me on and said you should absolutely follow your own dreams. it also avoided panic selling for me one time when the market was dipping. It's how you use it what you make of the information it gives you it doesn't mean you should trust it blindly but I think we're still able to think for ourselves on top of the information it gives back? As for SPs having a traditional relationship with you or not the answer is nuanced there's way too much to unpack so I made a separate thread and that's only a little part of it.
Is it wrong to not want to get married and just enjoy this lifestyle?

We agree to disagree about AI. I think overall it's a net negative for people's well-being and the environment because all the data centres using up electricity causing water shortages in those areas. You don't have to take anybody's advice or AI's for that matter. It's what your intuition and experience as a human made those decisions. Honestly, I am bored of this conversation so reply if you want but I'm done talking about or reading this thread.
Maturity differences do matter -- did the guy dating the woman 10 years older and went through a profound behavioural change find his 'true-love' or his mommy? Many non-mature/immature men are looking for their mommies. What was going on with Anna Nicole Smith and her 80+ year old husband. Who, BTW, screwed her over financially.
So income differences can matter and are often big issues in relationships.
How one deals with challenges has two parts (in general): how one reacts (that is typically imprinted from birth and is difficult to change) and how one responds (which can be learned). Too often people react and don't take the time to consider a response.
We all have feelings, and can all get upset, but learning appropriate responses takes time and commitment if they haven't been taught and reinforced. We see lots of examples of that here and particularly in this hobby/business of people who react and lash out rather than taking a moment or two to consider an appropriate response.
I get what you’re trying to convey. You’re looking at the best interests of the parties involved.
And it begs the question: maturity matters to whom?
Certainly not to me. If two people are happy in a healthy, non-coercive relationship I don’t care about mommy issues, or daddy issues, or money issues, or age differences. Two consensual adults can do whatever they choose and it’s none of my business, frankly. I may have an opinion, just a many Perbs are offering, to provide some insight from experience, but at the end of the day the OP is gonna do what the OP is gonna do.
You have clearly presented some red flags to be aware of in any relationship, and yet becoming more self aware is a matter of reps, and you don’t get those sitting at home reading self help books, or in this case chatting with AI or Perbs.
You can read dozens of threads about the subject of dating an SP , the dos and don'ts, the conundrum you will face as well as the good and bad .
I would suggest that you read what has been written in the past about it first before starting a new thread about it because they get shut down pretty fast by the moderation team as it has been a subject overly covered already .
Read the kamasutra (not the illustrated version) as it describes the nature of men and women with surprising accuracy for a book that's more than 1000 years old.
