Is a guy living in his mom's basement a major turn-off for women?

That all depends. Is there a good reason for it? Like he lost a job and it is a temporary measure to conserve savings? Or is it because he is lazy, doesn't care to find work, or just likes living off other people?

One of those cases is a major red flag and the other not so much. I think that if a guy is living in anyone's basement then he ought not worry about girls so much and more about how to get out of said basement.

My ex is living with her new man in the house I bought when I was single. Apparently nothing I can do since we were common law and I put the house in her name as the primary owner.

That sounds more like the first scenario I pointed out where it is unavoidable and temporary. I still think what I said holds true. Need to get your life in order and not worry about girls so much.

So work on being a man kinda thing?

[Masie]

Not really being a man. Just getting your life in order again. I get that is not easy with an ex now in a home you bought.

Nonetheless you have to move on and get things the way you want them again. Girls can wait in my opinion.

It's not a turn on but it's not necessarily a turn-off I understand times are hard rent is extremely expensive mortgages are almost impossible on a single income unless you are very well paid just depends on the circumstance

I can say it isn’t a turn on. Also depends on circumstances around the “why” you are living in your mom’s basement.

Is a 36-year-old man living in his mom’s basement a dating deal breaker?

[Anonymous]

Yes.

Understandable. Why do you think so?
