Is it normal to want this kind of guy/life?

I very often want that very same thing. Just to be like, fuck it all, accept being poor but happy, and make my way around the world with a guy who feels the same way. Fact it, it's just not practical and we're romanticizing this thought in our minds. Being a nomad, a wander....same as being homeless, just a more attractive word. If you've really got the urge to travel, get a good job, settle yourself down, get a modest house and a modest car, and spend your money traveling!

I live in rich people land in Bergen County, New Jersey and I don't want this at all. I don't want a big house and a Mercedez. I want a small comfy home, a practical car, and to travel and see new things.

I'm sure you can find the type of guy that would support at least your feelings about this....but it will probably be difficult to find a respectable one with any immediate goals in life. My boyfriend is the same as me, luckily, so they are out there! Don't give up hope, but don't shut out other perfectly good guys that would be willing to travel around with you in moderation.

funny. I live in Bergen County as well. I'm not saying be poor and homeless. I.. ugh this is pointless. I should just entirely give up on this stupid fascination. It seems like all the odds are against me anyway.

You should never, ever, just settle with something that is not what you truly want.
This sounds very cliché but there are people out there who feels just the same as you..
And I can understand what you say, I even feel the same way with a lot of the things, and like you, I am an atheist.

Now, the only "problem" that I can see is that you should be "careful" of people with religions, and by this is mean no offense to the believers.
But most religious people wants to get married at some point, and even if you start a relationship with a religious person it can cause a lot of problems later on, maybe first years after.
The worst things for a lot of religious people, is us, the non-believers
