| On the other hand.... Posted: 5/4/2007 7:00:20 AM | | You know, it's funny, you see all these postings about how women are all out for money, etc, etc, but how come I look back at my life in relationships, and find that the men in my life all benefitted greatly from my income???? Maybe I should get all cynical and say that you guys are all looking for 'Sugar Momma's'? This is silly, there are good and bad in both genders, trash and diamonds all around us. | |

| On the other hand.... Posted: 5/4/2007 7:19:08 AM | YES YES YES Every realtionship I've ever been in the man has greatly benefitted from my income as well!! SOOO I guess it's true men really do only care about money lol!! That would just be an ignorant statement to make and Sheri babay I agree with EVERYTHING you said!! Now meet me at Lucky's on Sunday and we will continue the men and my money conversation lol | |

| On the other hand.... Posted: 5/6/2007 5:09:28 AM | Wow! What a great debate! Women and money. Hmmm!
What ever happened to romance and love? What ever happened to, "First come love, then come marriage, then comes a baby in a baby carriage?"
Now it's, "First comes lust, then comes shacking up, then comes stealing money out of each others wallet."
Sure wish things went back to the way they used to be.
Uh, where are all of the sugar momma's anyway?  | |

| On the other hand.... Posted: 5/6/2007 3:50:36 PM | It seems like money is always part of the equation. I don't care about a man's money. I don't want to know. It's his. I have my own. | |
|
| On the other hand.... Posted: 5/7/2007 1:55:31 PM | | Vince you tell me what did happen to romance and love? Looking back at some of the posts one poster compared dating to prostitution and yet another crudely stated that he should now be allowed to stay home and be lazy while a woman supported him, because men have been supporting women since the coal mine days.... Again for me it's not the amount of money you make that makes you rich it's more about the way you treat people and respect all of man kind that makes you rich. A rich wallet can get lost or stollen a rich soul is something that you can take with when you die! | |

| well looks like women do love money more then anything Posted: 5/17/2007 7:54:57 AM | Pretty good advice, smart guy. I have to agree with every word you said. We can't just stereotype men or women by saying, "All men just want a piece of ass," or "Women are gold-diggers,"
In all fairness we would have to say, "All PEOPLE are this or that" and we know that can't be true. But yes, ALOT are, and thank God alot of us are not.
As far as attraction goes, you said, "you have to ask yourself is what are you doing to attract these types of people" You are so right on the money with that (oh crap! I said money...am I a digger now?lol)
People need to be willing to look at themrselves more when they are not liking something in life, and not be so willing to blame others. You must have read The Secret, by Rhonda Byrne, to be speaking such words of wisdom (and if not, go out and buy it immediately)
Kudos to you Bigfut  | |

| well looks like women do love money more then anything Posted: 5/17/2007 3:45:40 PM | OK, so where does money figure into attraction signals? Here's a quote from something I found online: "Numerous studies of symmetry in humans have shown that men especially are more attracted to women with symmetrical features. (One hypothesis suggests that women are not as concerned with symmetry because instead of breeding, they look for a mate that can provide food and protection for their offspring, i.e., money and power for humans (2)."
There definitely is something about a man who can handle his money. I think subconsciously, women pick up that he is able to handle himself in life and in the bed as well if he can handle his money. There's just something powerful in that.
Are we after the money itself? No, although women are wired to desire security. I believe we're after a man who knows what he is doing. Whoa! That is extremely sexy, if you ask me. Knowing what he is doing generally is evidenced by being a good money manager and not so much the quantity of it that he has. | |

| well looks like women do love money more then anything Posted: 5/18/2007 2:38:15 PM | Mudder,
There will always be SOME women who are only after money. Just as there will always be SOME guys that are just out to play the field. If you keep running across the same type of gal, then I would say you need to examine why you find them first off. Secondly, wouldn't common sense kick in and say, "hey all she cares about is my wallett- I'm out of here!" ????
If someone wants to find out how much money you have BEFORE you have met or even talked for any length of time, that alone should tell ya their priorities are amscrayed. And if the question does come up in convo, you can also say that the business is viable and self-sustaining and leave it there. No need to deal with specifics. Its not like you owe an explanation to them or you are locked into them. If the conversation turns to this subject matter then divert it.
Nikki, now thats the voice of someone that understands what nurtures a relationship past the infatuation stage and on to something that is going to make it in the long run. Remind me next time I see ya I owe ya a neck rub ..... I might have a few references out there yet for my ability to relax and ease tension out. | |

This is not to say he has to have a lot of it!! Remember the saying size doesn't matter?! But I absolutely agree with Sharon a man that can handle his money does seem a little more powerful and that's SEXY!! However you can work for minimum wage and still know how to handle what you got! A man with a million bucks doesn't really need to try to handle his money now does he? He can pay somebody else to do that for him! | |

I don't believe one word of this!
Girlspeak.... "A man that makes minimum wage may be sexy, but Id still never date him"  | |

| well looks like women do love money more then anything Posted: 5/20/2007 6:07:58 AM | It's ok you don't have to believe any of it. It matters not. I don't now nor will I ever judge a person by the amount of money he/she makes. I do however judge a person by the effort they are wiling to put in to it. If you are lazy and lack ambition then I'm not interested. If you work hard and make an honest living I don't care how much money you make! I make enough of my own I don't need yours!
