I think the point of an "expensive" place (really just a big one that isn't disgusting) is that you can host people, throw parties, etc.
Being able to host is a massive boost to people being willing to go out of their way to spend time of you, and (good) hosts get a +4 bonus to sexiness also
- kragen 4y agoYeah, throwing parties and hosting people is pretty great as a way to meet people. My current apartment is an efficiency, so it's not well suited to hosting people unless we're already comfortable being naked around each other. This doesn't totally exclude meeting a new intimate partner that way (my friends from the dance world are generally totally comfortable being naked around each other, and most of them have never been my lovers) but it does diminish the opportunity a lot. But you don't really need a big place to host someone from CouchSurfing or WarmShowers or Hospitality Club or whatever the current one is. Just having two bedrooms with doors that close is enough. Or one bedroom, if you yourself sleep in the living room in pajamas, or something. Here in Buenos Aires the apartments are mostly small, so the usual way for people here to throw parties is to either rent an event space for the night, propose an event to a cultural center, or just arrange to all meet up in a bar.
