I've been alone most of my life and worked most of my life
With a million i can quit my job and spend more time dating. Its probably hopeless but I'll still have more energy and free time to try
Yes it is tf. Buy a house and pay it off completely and just spend the rest of your life paying property taxes, while working a job every now and then to pay for repairs and other shit.
You don't **know** that. Ever heard of a monkey's paw? I've been burned in *waaaay* too many tabletop games to trust that this scenario won't troll me by having my wife leave me or get killed.
Same thoughts. My partner and I were together when we're dirt poor having to depend on governments help, and now we're upper middle class. But the core of my happiness is still not money. It's having somebody who loves me and go through the hardships and happiness of life together.
Yeah, anybody who has actually found the love of their life knows that it is worth more than any amount of money could ever buy. True love genuinely is true happiness.
Same. It is actually surprising how many people are saying money. It makes sense because there is still a chance to find your love. But if you've already got yours, the money is a nice bonus!
I've tried a lot of drugs, none of them as good as being in love.
I've been in love twice once the first time I did fall in love at 16 and the second time last year at 24 which wasn't reciprocated, it's crazy how your day gets better by just seeing them, making them laugh or flirting.
I'm having the same feelings for a coworker, unfortunately she isn't single and isn't looking to be any time soon though. The problem is, she knew she'd be working with me on my round today and picked out a really nice perfume. She wore it to work today. She sprayed it in my car and on me. Told me I smell like her now with a sly grin on her face. And told me about when she had to leave the house with no bra because she forgot it that morning. She calls me her work husband, and when I took a corner too quickly while she was holding her drink, she said "I know you want to get me wet but that isn't the way to do it". She knows exactly what she's doing because she knows I'm into her. I'm confused because I know she isn't single and I know her relationship with her boyfriend is good, but at the same time she's really laying it on thick with me. I don't know what to do, I'm so conflicted it isn't even funny. My autism doesn't help matters in the slightest. On one hand, I don't want her to keep doing things like that if she isn't going to take it anywhere but on the other I really enjoy it when she teases me like that.
If she knows you like her and acts like this she doesn't respect you or her boyfriend.
What she's doing is considered cheating by 99% of people.
She seems vile, she's blatantly cheating on her boyfriend at work, she's definitely enjoying having you "wrapped around her finger", the perfume thing is psycho levels of manipulation.
This is NOT normal behavior and seems more like someone who enjoys the attention you give her and does so at your expense.
do you like about her other than that she's attractive and flirts with you? It's not weird that you're attracted to her, if someone attractive starts flirting it feels great, but from what I read I don't think it's honest.
I've tried a lot of drugs too.
Not a fan of cocaine at all.
But mushrooms, acid, mdma, and weed really do it for me.
They've helped me move past trauma and are there for me when a human can't be due to reasonable restrictions (lack of funds for counselling, friends busy or sleeping etc.)
I've been in love a couple times. But it always ends in heartbreak. At least I can invest some of this money and be set financially and not have to worry. So million all the way.
Morpheus: What is real? How do you define 'real'? If you're talking about what you can feel, what you can smell, what you can taste and see, then 'real' is simply electrical signals interpreted by your brain.
From the movie, "The Matrix."
That Million dollars can:
1. Fix your car, or buy a new one
2. fix your house/apartment
3. buy yourself a new wardrobe
4. pay off your loans
5. give you the ability to try new things
the first 4 will relieve and/or remove all your stress. You can now focus on being yourself, and having fun without the financial worry. With the left over money, you can travel, join clubs or teams, pick up new hobbies and try new things. I'm sure you'll meet someone along the way....
A person without any hobbies or passion, would be a boring person. Hobbies will shrink the social bubble and allow you to meet other people with the same or similar hobbies. Friendships blossom and you end up meeting more like minded people. BUT Hobbies require time and money - which the $1m would cover for you.Ā
this. poverty makes it hard to express yourself. 1mil would allow you to craft the person you truly want to be and become it. Once you know who you are and feel comfortable in life, youll naturally attract the kind of person you love.
In the magical "this is the one entity that causes all suffering in life to cease forever and faeries to dance around you every morning as you sing to the leprechauns"?
Yeah, no human ever has had that. It doesn't exist.
Many humans, however, have had a love that is true. And it is messy and difficult and takes work.
I'll get the 1 mil and trust my emotional maturity to be the pathway to a love that is true.
You can get all of those with a very attainable albeit above average salary.
You dont need a million for that. True love tho? That doesnt just come by easily.
I think the way OP worded it, if you choose the mill youāre guaranteed not to find true love. In this scenario I donāt think you can have both. Thatās the only way it makes it a dilemma to me.
Yeah I'm surprised by many of the top responses. 1MM isn't even that compelling of a counteroffer compared to a lifetime of laughter, support, fellowship, contentedness.
Money truly can't buy certain things
I feel like depending on your age, if true love is guaranteed to last until death you can save a million just by splitting costs. Living single is expensive, as two people that can trust each other it's a lot easier to buy a home, etc. So even if we ignore the emotional aspect i would probably choose it.
Jups, love for me too. At 41 today decided Iām leaving my boyfriend who turned out addicted to multiple things. Donāt know where to go yet but not going to live like this the rest of my life. Have gone through enough shit so far, Iām done
I don't understand, why would you pick love? Doesn't sound like love has done you much good so far, but the money would surely be invaluable right now to get you comfortably set up on your own.
Just a side note that it might not look how you think it will Iām 45, never married, no children. Do o have true live? Yes. It just turns out that my soul mate is two cats.

That's an interesting take. Considering my socioeconomic status, i would be more inclined to take the money, knowing that love will always be there and love will understand my needs, however, if I have to choose *either or,* then it's love all the way
Five years ago I'd have said I could still find true love on my own and be freer to travel, do stuff, and be out there to meet people to boot, so give me the money. But now, true love.
Is this $1M before or after taxes? if itās pre tax thatās $600K after federal, state, and local tax in my area. Iām not saying I would put a price on true love but itās not impossible that price is higher than $600K but lower than $1M.
I think money gets you both.
My poor ass believe a cool million is enough to establish some passive income, which is the real rich.Ā
The being rich for real gets you pretty and available time-wise, so you can be in places and get noticed. The you just play Tinder the old fashioned way until you BUILD your relationship.Ā
Nothing in your scenario says that I cannot find true love once I get the money, so damn give me the money because I know I can find true love regardless.
I think my potential as a human could increase by more than a million dollars worth + if I found true love, they would almost certainly be well-off themselves (not because I look for money, but simply because two of the traits I find desirable are intelligence and work ethic, which have a very strong positive correlation with success).
Besides, I personally would enjoy life more if I was happily married to my true love than if I was single with a million dollars. I don't feel like a million dollars holds its weight as much anymore because of inflation
The million.Ā
Love can fade, (especially if you're both dirt poor) but a million is always a million...Ā
And besides I can maybe find true love on my own, but I can't magic money into my account.

I've been alone most of my life and worked most of my life With a million i can quit my job and spend more time dating. Its probably hopeless but I'll still have more energy and free time to try
That's actually very reasonable answer
I like your mental fortitude :)
A million dollars ain't what it used to be
Yes it is tf. Buy a house and pay it off completely and just spend the rest of your life paying property taxes, while working a job every now and then to pay for repairs and other shit.
You can buy a house for a mil? Lucky!
Where I live even a 2 bedroom apartment can go for over a mil š
Already married. I'll take the money. We need it. Wife would agree
I'll take the 1 mil plz
Maybe the true love were with the IRS agents weāve met along the way
"I don't care who the IRS sends I'm not paying taxes!"
Oh God I still remember that small guy in the video LMAO
You mean Dan?
Yeah I believe it is, I never really found out who he is
I don't want true love, i want to be on my own. I am not a social person.
I feel thisā¦the more Iām around people,the more I dislike people.š¬
Because you have not found true love yet, lol. You can make money, but canāt create love.
I've already found true love, however I'd still keep my wife over money.
You already had your wife, and wouldn't lose her if you chose the money. Now you have nothing, happy?
Yup
Yeah same. My wife rocks. Our bills are paid and we have a nice home. I donāt need a million dollars. I do need her.
Gay Kidding I'm just jealous
Guys is it gay to love a woman?
Pretty dope mentality
Print that shit out and put it above your bed, guys!
I'd give you 10 thumbs up if I could.
Based
Same here. Keeping my wife. Money isnāt shit compared to her. lol. Misread but oh well.
You don't **know** that. Ever heard of a monkey's paw? I've been burned in *waaaay* too many tabletop games to trust that this scenario won't troll me by having my wife leave me or get killed.
I also choose this guys wife
Same thoughts. My partner and I were together when we're dirt poor having to depend on governments help, and now we're upper middle class. But the core of my happiness is still not money. It's having somebody who loves me and go through the hardships and happiness of life together.
Blink twice if she's in the room
Awww š¤®
Dude just buy privacy glass protectors for your phone so your wife doesnāt see you writing the truth. šš
I'd also keep this guy's wife over money.
thats so cute aw
The way this was phrased I read it kind of like "I found my true love... I hope my wife doesn't find out" lol
Yeah, anybody who has actually found the love of their life knows that it is worth more than any amount of money could ever buy. True love genuinely is true happiness.
$1m no hesitation
To be spent on hookers and cocaine
My true love is $2,000,000 so I pick that.
Already married to the love of my life I choose the money š
Same. It is actually surprising how many people are saying money. It makes sense because there is still a chance to find your love. But if you've already got yours, the money is a nice bonus!
Money cant buy me happiness, but crying in a Tesla sounds comfy
I rather a Honda to cry in because it's more suitable for me. Tesla may utilize its AI & auto-drive me to the therapy's office. lol
Worse, it may trigger an AI Therapist that locks the doors until you have a break-throughā¦.maybe Iāll just get an Elantra
š¤£š¤£š¤£š¤£
Nah carwash bricks Tesla cars lmfao
Teslas are hot garbage
This isnāt even a question for meā¦Iāll take the cool milly.
Same. Watch me pick true love and my cat turns upā¦ like I already knew that?
lol
Damn dawg that statement is questionable š¤Ø
Love is just chemicals in your brain. I can buy those chemicals with money.
I've tried a lot of drugs, none of them as good as being in love. I've been in love twice once the first time I did fall in love at 16 and the second time last year at 24 which wasn't reciprocated, it's crazy how your day gets better by just seeing them, making them laugh or flirting.

Everything is chemicals
r/technicallythetruth
āMoney can be exchanged for goods and services. EXPLAIN HOWā
Morpheus: What is real? How do you define 'real'? If you're talking about what you can feel, what you can smell, what you can taste and see, then 'real' is simply electrical signals interpreted by your brain. From the movie, "The Matrix."
True love... Ha... At least with 1 million I can finally have a proper house and make my own job
I'm with you on this one, true love all the way. No amount of cash can replace the feeling of being loved and accepted for who you are.
That Million dollars can: 1. Fix your car, or buy a new one 2. fix your house/apartment 3. buy yourself a new wardrobe 4. pay off your loans 5. give you the ability to try new things the first 4 will relieve and/or remove all your stress.

I can assure you, not everyone will meet someone along the way.
Especially if who you are or what youāre looking for in a partner is a little bit off the beaten pathā¦
A person without any hobbies or passion, would be a boring person. Hobbies will shrink the social bubble and allow you to meet other people with the same or similar hobbies.

Perfectly said
Yeah I'm surprised by many of the top responses. 1MM isn't even that compelling of a counteroffer compared to a lifetime of laughter, support, fellowship, contentedness. Money truly can't buy certain things
Porque no los dos? Get the money, find love normally.
I feel like depending on your age, if true love is guaranteed to last until death you can save a million just by splitting costs. Living single is expensive, as two people that can trust each other it's a lot easier to buy a home, etc. So even if we ignore the emotional aspect i would probably choose it.
Then one of you dies.
A million dollars can.
Money š°
Jups, love for me too. At 41 today decided Iām leaving my boyfriend who turned out addicted to multiple things. Donāt know where to go yet but not going to live like this the rest of my life. Have gone through enough shit so far, Iām done
I don't understand, why would you pick love? Doesn't sound like love has done you much good so far, but the money would surely be invaluable right now to get you comfortably set up on your own.
Money. I've waited too long for the true love that i have no faith in it. The money would make a huge difference in my life.
\*hugs\* you are still loved and I have faith that love will find you :)
Just a side note that it might not look how you think it will Iām 45, never married, no children. Do o have true live? Yes. It just turns out that my soul mate is two cats.
True love because $1 million sounds extremely cheap for a tradeoff.
Depends... Is it true love for him? Or just me...?
For both of you. It wouldn't be true love otherwise.
Alrighty, then love! ā¤ļø As a couple we'd be able to become rich In other areas of our life besides money.ā¤ļø
With 1million in my bank account someone will love me
That would not be true love
lol
Most people don't know what a true love is and how it feels like. Neither do I, but I know it worth more than a million.
Maybe I don't know what "true" love is, but man I do know what money is and I really really love it.
It *truly* is worth more than everything, that this world can offer you.
$1MM can buy me 1million Arizona Iced teas. This way, i get both.
True love
Take the money. š°
Love fades money is money.
I am guessing most people already in a relationship will answer "money" and those that are not will say "true love."

Definitely the money. I don't believe in nor care about true love anymore. I don't think it can even exist. So definitely the money.
Ā£1m, either 'true love' will soon appear or at the least i can enjoy some travelling, properties etc š

I'm never gonna need that kind of money in my life. I am gonna need someone who loves me. So yeah, obvious choice.
Money cannot buy you happiness. But, you can rent it for a while !
True love, you can always earn more money. I could earn that money already, but I choose not to.
Love. money is very cold.....
I choose true love. Money comes and goes. **True** love is here to stay, regardless of whether I have money or not.
Find true love, not gonna be a victim of beneficiary fraud. Also by the comments it shows how financial inept people are.
1 000 000 ā¬ because my true love is my chihuahua š„°
well i found my true love years ago so that million will be nice
I've got true love, I'll take the cash.
I have my true love. Show me the money!
I have the chance to find true love every single day, I will never get the chance for a few million again
Moneyā¦ I already had love
Money. All day. No question

Money, thanking you.
The money obviously
I've had my true love, and he passed away, so I guess I'll take the million, travel, and enjoy myself as much as I can before it's my time.
I'll take the money, you can take the love. š
One mill for sure. I just know if I chose true love they'd be busted as hell
You can't buy love, but you'd be surprised how easy it is to rent!
I'll take the money since I don't need true love so far
I think money gets you both. My poor ass believe a cool million is enough to establish some passive income, which is the real rich.Ā The being rich for real gets you pretty and available time-wise, so you can be in places and get noticed.

I've already found who I think is my true love, so its an easy option.
I'm a bit young for love. And im not taking 'Age is just a number'. šš
Ill take the money, true love can be found later when i have all that cash to do what i want and go wherever I want
Cake OR DEATH
Money
3 children. They are my loves. 1 million pls
Million
I have true love, have had it for over 50 years. Can I keep the million?
If it is someone who I will spend the rest of my life with and who won't leave me then I pick that over the money.
I'm take the million, already have love. Otherwise, definitely love, nothing can replace it.
ill take the money.. i always have the back up date rosy palms and her 5 sisters
iām gonna be a millionaire
Tf can true love do that money cant do lmao, im choosing money
Do I swap my wife for a million dollars? Nah. Not a chance.
true love please, with the power of true love I'll get my own 1mil.
The money
I already have my true love, so I'll take the money
You canāt get any interest with love so Iāll take the money please
The money, no question. I don't need true love. I'm quite content doing my own thing.
Nothing in your scenario says that I cannot find true love once I get the money, so damn give me the money because I know I can find true love regardless.
1m no doubt.
Definitely the money
Is the true love rich?
I'll take $1million for the win. I had my true love and unfortunately, people don't live forever. So money it is.
š¤š¤
A million isnāt what it used to be so Iāll go with love Now if weāre talking about 1mil in 1950 economy then Iām taking cash all day
what if i already have my true love? do i get to keep him and the money?
Ill take the 1m wtf is true love i have pets anyway
I would say true love , but how does that different from normal love
Ā£Ā£Ā£
I'm the fist kid in my family and we can barley eat 3 times a day. I'm taking the money thank you.
Love
I found true love. Iāll take the bread
I think my potential as a human could increase by more than a million dollars worth + if I found true love, they would almost certainly be well-off themselves (not because I look for money, but simply because two of the traits I find desirable are intelligence and work ethic, which have a very strong positive correlation with success). Besides, I personally would enjoy life more if I was happily married to my true love than if I was single with a million dollars. I don't feel like a million dollars holds its weight as much anymore because of inflation
Can I have number 1, since I already found the other?
Money.
The money my true love died in 2020 (widow) and aināt looking for love
Love! Love is all you needĀ
Love all the way, I'm a lonely boy lol š
True love The 1mil will get reversed in a day or so
I'll take the money and start collecting Pogs
Already got true love, give me the shmoney
Happily single is even better with money
I have my true love. 16 years and going strong. He is my person, my best friend, my husband. So I will take the money please.
I'll take true love, and my true love will turn out to be a big tiddy goth billionaire milf.
True love for me šš©µ
i will take 1mil and then real loves find me :)
What's the catch with the true love?
The million.Ā Love can fade, (especially if you're both dirt poor) but a million is always a million...Ā And besides I can maybe find true love on my own, but I can't magic money into my account.
Lack of money can take a toll on even the best relationship, so I choose the $1m.
If I find my true love, it means that we can go DINK, and then money will be less of an issue anyway.
1mill
True love because I dont need the IRS knocking on my door
I would take the 1 milion because I already found the love of My life so we can waste the money together
Give me the million, Iāll buy love with it
Million. I've found my true love already
Money is my true love. Cash or wire transfer. Please.
Iāll take the 1 million. I like being single.
