| Golddiggers and paranoia
Posted: 8/29/2009 8:28:10 AM | I dated men who didn't have a job, car, much clothes.. I think that when women say they're looking for "looks" in a man means someone they can be attracted to. They don't have to be top 100 hottest guy in the world or anything. At least not for me.
I've met men who look good and who are poor..
No offense but I'm not dating anyone who doesn't have a job again.. The last one drained my bank and left me with nothing but a broken heart and a baby..
Just because a women says she wants a man with money, don't go off and call her a gold-digger. She's probably like me and doesn't want to be the only one who HAS money in the relationship. | |

Posted: 9/8/2009 6:02:30 PM | I can understand a woman wanting a guy who's not a bum and is working steady. But I don't understand these women who list $100,000 or $150,000 for they're salary requirements, which I've seen on match.com quite often. And some of these same women claim they're low maintenance! What a joke! Sounds very HIGH maintenance to me, very superficial and very shallow. Those are truly gold diggers. I suppose some men can be guilty of the same thing, but I'm sure there's guys who make $100,000 and up who are deep in debt yet guys like me who make half that get their bills paid every month. Women should look at it in that perspective as well.   | |

Posted: 9/8/2009 8:37:03 PM | | I spent 15 years of my life with "poor and sexy" and had two children with him and have no wish to repeat that experience. Generally, an adult who remains poor over a length of time has no drive or little work ethic or little education. I am the furthest thing from a gold digger but have no interest in a man who has a history of financial struggle. Give me sexy and solvent. I work hard and am fiscally responsible and I expect the same in a mate. | |

| Golddiggers and paranoia....oh ya...
Posted: 9/8/2009 9:51:10 PM | Another topic most don't want to discuss.
I am not a gold digger...it would be refreshing if alot of stingy rich men would stop screaming gold diggers.
It is surprising how many of those men are Gold Diggers themselves.
I want to be treated right that does not mean I should have to shell out because they are afraid to part with a nickel. I do the best I can. Many wealthy are afraid a penny will come out of one of their five pensions. Leave them to it and go find a person more suited to yourself...that way everyone will be happy.
On the other side of that ...there is always those that take advantage of people and make it hard for others. And it doesn't matter if they are rich or poor.
All depends on the persons involved and the charactor of the person. There is decent rich and poor and a match for everyone. I'm so optimistic.
I am not rich nor poor...I try very hard to keep my own straight path in the financial area...I have found that some people will expect you to keep up and if you cant they will resent it....leave them. Find someone who will work with you...work it out together.
There are people out there that care. Yes we do have to support ourselves, yet being a decent human being is important and just because someone is rich doesn't mean they are decent and doesn't give them the right to make you feel less of yourself. Go find your fish sexy.  | |

Posted: 9/9/2009 11:14:39 AM | Money provides cush, comfort and freedom from bills, but it sure can't "buy" a personality or sexiness!!!
I dunno...a lot of women like cowboys. Unless they've hit Texas tea (oil), they're dirt-poor, but they sure are men's men who know how to tame wild stallions and ride bulls! There's something to be said for the tough, rugged type.
In the white-collar corporate world, though, gender roles have become convoluted and confused. Men have an innate desire to conquer, but in the white-collar workplace, even in upper management, it's very difficult to conquer a mountain of paperwork that, no matter how hard one works, it just keeps piling up and the mountain gets higher. And, since the white-collar workplace is increasingly dominated by women, men are frequently working UNDER their female bosses. I can see why so many men lose their way, get depressed, and sulk under our female mates. We need an arena of power to control, be it a person or situation.
This is why men like sports. They get to live vicariously through their idol athletes in an aggressive situation, conquering the other team, instead of the passive-aggressive situation they have to suck it up and deal with at work.
Being a golddigger, male or female, is bad, because the digger relinquishes control over their own life. Money (and working for money) enables us to be in control of our OWN lives. This economy sucks, but I don't want to be a "kept" man, so I think I just landed a new second job. | |
