It's weird when u see an altbag couple who seem like 'they are interesting' and 'in touch with the core values of being alt.' But then u kinda find out that they are 'rich kids who have been in a relationship since high school' and they 'aren't as interesting as they look.' They 'dress alt'-ish, but u get the feeling that they probably 'paid a lot of money' for their clothes that look kinda thrifty.
One day, u will observe their relationship in an authentic local coffee shop. U will listen to one of their conversations. They will sound like tweens, making requests for 'a new Apple book Pro', anxiousness about their major in French/ Marketing / Fashion / General Design, and talk about 'being excited' about 'going to a concert' that they think will make them more authentic. Feel weird when you run into this couple doing cliched things like 'thrifting', 'going to a record store and buying records', 'reading books/cliched novels in public', and 'going Vespa shopping.' These couples are the kind of couples who actually 'make future plans together', and 'relocate to THE CITY' together without 'using it as an excuse to break up.'
Sort of jealous of high level alt bag couples. Feel like both members of the party are usually 'very handsome' in some sort of 'i look beautiful' way. Not sure if they 'have good sex.'
It makes me sad because all I can ever day are 'entry level alts' who date me to 'feel cooler' and 'get a new snarky perspective on life.' Or just 'crazy rich mediocre suburban girl' alts, who are only 'alt' because they couldn't 'fit in' with the mainstream crowd during high school/'pay for friends' and join a sorority. Feel sad when all of these girls sort of 'fail' in their quest for 'meaning' in life. Feel sad that altbros can't give women the love and attention that they truly need.
All I ever wanted was a high level altbaguette.
Feel like we're doomed. Not sure if 2 people are supposed 2 be together.'
