Well groomed.. really wasn't necessary. I just wore a t-shirt and whenever I was interested in someone I would take off that t-shirt.
I was age 21-24 though, so teenager stuff might still have applied.
Met my wife when I was 24, now 6 years together.
So yeah, my experience with women basically is from age 17 to 24. As teenager, it was all about hobbies etc.
Now as a married man.. my wife doesn't give a fuck bout my hobbies, she's pregnant so she wants someone dependable. Long term relationship so we need to be communicative.
Hobbies.. we do things together. Outings, watching series. She suffers through my blabbering bout economic stuff that she really doesn't care about. She watches me workout for the so maniest time.
When you're looking for a relationship, all you need to do is have fun. Be charming. Your hobby can be whatever. They want you, not your hobby, not your grooming. If you're fit and you can make her laugh, that's all you need.
I mean sure, different people have different preferences when it comes to grooming. My point is more along the lines of: It doesn't matter how funny you are if you stink and your hair is greasy.
Come on bruv, taking a shower takes 10 minutes a day.
I thought you meant like fine shaving your facial hair, making sure your hair length, fade, etc is always on point. Wearing suit or expensive clothing. Wearing perfume.
That's grooming.
Taking a shower and brushing your teeth is the most basic thing
I know, right? And even then, I had a friend who would rather get *into a fist fight than have his hair washed because "I takes 30 minutes to fully dry".
I think he has brushed his teeth maybe like 3-4 times tops in his adult life and half of those, I paid him to brush his teeth. Of course he has multiple health issues because of it. It was literally like he would rather die than brush his teeth.
All that, and he still wanted a girlfriend and thought it would magically fix all of his problems.
So there is my rant, and I hope you are having a good day, and I hope you wish for me the same.
