There are people in prison that made mistakes they sincerely regret.
We aren’t all perfect.
Some people are born into unfortunate circumstances with family and their social environment that often leads to making poor decisions, especially when they are younger and more prone to making emotional decisions over logical ones.
These people who grow up in unfortunate circumstances are more susceptible to making poor decisions based on what they are suffering through or lacking in the moment, leading to the committing of a crime and incarceration.
Sadly, by now, you have developed a complacency that is second nature to you.
At 32 years of age, you are set in your ways, and as a result, you consciously make excuses for why you can never get a date.
Once we reach a certain age, we establish a comfort zone in who we are as a person, making it harder for us to take a sincere look at ourselves so as to determine why we are having a difficult time in a certain area of our lives.
Instead, we tell ourselves that this is who we are and the world should bend to it.
No matter what you do for your significant other, it isn’t appreciated.
This has actually made you fall into a trap you weren’t aware of.
Every time you did a nice thing for him and he didn’t appreciate it, it disappointed you to such an extent that you would go even further the next time around.
The first date wasn’t all that impressive to you in terms of the extravagance of the activity.
And now, you are wondering whether he is cheap and a red flag.
After all, you were expecting him to do something more thoughtful and costly on a date.
Not that you want him to spend all his savings on you, but you believe that when a man puts in the time to plan a more elaborate date and spends a good amount of money that aligns with the activity, he is demonstrating that he is taking you seriously and has skin in the game.
