Let me amend my original post. Women want two things: money and semen.
Wow....great attitude.... | |

Posted: 6/20/2006 11:54:32 AM | | I just graduated from web site school and I'm starting my own business so I have no bait, hence no date. Another problem is there are more men than women in the world and I always seem to be the demographic leftover. Over the years I have wasted several thousand $ on various types of dating services (matchmaking, video dating, the aforementioned "It's Just Lunch" service for busy professionals, etc) and I found out the hard way that the male to female ratio is 2 to 1. Men are more likely to be aggressive enough to use "active" measures like dating services and personal ads while women tend to be more "passive" and wait for the "love that happens when you're not looking". | |

Posted: 6/20/2006 12:02:53 PM | I've asked this question before...
If you believe that all women are lying,sleazy,money-grubbers,then why do you continue to use dating sites?
I just don't understand the negativity. | |

Posted: 6/20/2006 12:12:01 PM | God get over your damn self - NO ONE WANTS YOUR FREAKN' MONEY!!
No one decent anyway!!! I'll buy my own freakin' steak dinner!!
I want a guy that would want to treat me well regardless of income - gee even a home cooked meal is acceptable as long as you are a gentleman!!
^^^ Yeah what she said^^^
And let me add, if you can cook a steak dinner, that would be even more romantic (yikes did I just say that word? Looking around for the 12 gauge).
Anyone can pick you up drive you to a restaurant and sit you in front of a waiter.. | |

Posted: 6/20/2006 12:18:32 PM | indianaman...maybe you're dating the wrong women...lol...dating isn't about income...I mean come on...you could go for a nice beach walk...little picnic...sit and talk over a few soft drinks...etc...etc...Or if you want to splurge for a steak, then make it yourself...more romantic I think that way anyway...lol...I mean, if all your date is looking for is money...then how much fun is that going to be? Seriously, there are a lot of things to do on a date that do not require lots of money...I want to see who someone is inside his Heart, NOT his wallet...yeah, it's nice to pay some bills with, but really...how happy is that wallet going to keep you? Isn't that why a lot of divorces happen in the first place? Just my opinion tho....

Posted: 6/20/2006 12:22:48 PM | To purpledust101: here in conservative Republican Indiana it's hard to find a woman who isn't interested in money.
To leafslady: would you marry a sterile homeless man? | |

Posted: 6/20/2006 12:30:11 PM | | If it's about income then I must have missed that memo LOL...money has nothing to do with the butterflies you get in your tummy everytime you answer the phone and hear his voice on the other end, not to mention the thrill that runs through your veins when you see his smiling face on a beautiful Saturday morning | |

Posted: 6/20/2006 12:31:06 PM | I was a member of a dating service "for busy professionals" called "It's Just Lunch" which cost about a $1000 to join. After several unsuccessful dates they cancelled my membership and gave me a disapointingly small refund because I was "unmatchable" for two reasons: 1) I wasn't "corporate" enough for their female members (this was where I met the woman who criticized me for not working overtime) and 2) I refuse to have children.
Although POF is free, I'd say your headed for "cancellation" here to, for reasons 3) generalizing all women 4) bashing women
Good luck with that! | |

Posted: 6/20/2006 12:45:09 PM | but indianaman...I KNOW they have to be around there somewhere...all women are not interested in money...there are those who DO want someone who has a good heart inside, and not boo-coo bucks hanging out of their pockets...and you know, I've seen lots of women on here willing to locate to other states...so go give them a try...you might be pleasantly surprised...there are a lot of really sweet nice people on here, read all of the forums, and pick from there...but I've read your profile, and if all your looking for is someone to satisfy your passions, it probably won't happen...real women are looking for more in a relationship than that...

P.S, totally hilarious Dru...LOL LOL | |

Posted: 6/20/2006 12:48:59 PM | OP, your reasoning isn't logical...homeless men? :::eye roll::: Perhaps you feel you're being judged for your income, and sure, there are some snobby people who will do that - but by no means are they the majority. Looking for someone who is financially secure does not mean someone who has a huge income, IMO...it means someone who 1) works, 2) pays their own bills on time, and 3) is responsible and lives within their income - not into heavy debt. I'm financially secure; why wouldn't I want my partner to be also? And as for work ethic, since I was raised with a good one, my partner needs to have one also; neither of us should be a workaholic, but I believe in earning what I get, not being given handouts.
I don't know your whole situation, but I work full-time and go to college, I also pay the mortgage and associated bills on 2 homes, so 'broke' may not mean the same thing to me that it does to you. But I would think that at 45 you do work even while starting your own business up (that would just be common sense, IMO); if not, that would be another issue.
As far as "It's Just Lunch" they cater to a specific type of clientele, just as MillionaireMatch does; if you don't fit their criteria, you don't fit; not a hard concept to understand. A web designer might not be considered a 'corporate professional' under their criteria selection; but I find it hard to believe they'd get rid of someone simply because that person didn't want children. Perhaps you simply aren't finding anyone because they're not interested in an 'intimate encounter' with someone whose profile only talks about how much pleasure he can give a woman. After reading your profile and your posts, I can't think of too many women who would be interested in either your money, semen, or intimate encounter. | |

Posted: 6/20/2006 1:19:47 PM | well this site has been a big waste of time because 1) most of the members here are in Canada and I'm in Indiana and 2) 99% of the women here either have children or want children, while I refuse to become either a biological father or stepfather. Before you criticize that 2nd point, consider this:
No one wants to admit it, but most of the world's problems are due to overpopulation, not the least of which are limited natural resources.
My choosing not to have kids means more resources for your kid
I feel it would be cruel to pass my genetic flaws onto a child | |

Posted: 6/20/2006 1:38:48 PM | Hey Davidhdl,
That scenario you described, is similar to what some of us refer to as marriage!
Hey Indianaman,
It's 99% of ALL women that have kids. If you're looking for one that doesn't have kids, you've drastically reduced your ocean down the size of a pond. You ought to change you way of thinking or you'll die a lonely old man. No offense, just my honest opinion. | |

Posted: 6/20/2006 1:50:24 PM | To Davidhdl: My decision to not have kids was reached after several years of careful consideration. I would rather die alone than have kids, that's how strongly I feel about it. It don't consider myself good parent material, so why have a kid that I can't give my all to as a father. There are way too many unwanted children in the world as it is. I'll be 46 next month, I can't imagine paying for a kid's college education when I'm in my sixties.
There are some women who don't want kids, I have even known a couple of them. One woman disagreed with me on other issues. The other woman turned out to be dishonest. I have dated women with kids but it always seemed that the kids got higher priority than me, which is great for the kids but doesn't help me any.
I'm considering starting an Indianapolis chapter of nokidding .org, a social group for people who don't want kids (an have to deal with pressure from parents who want grandchildren, etc.) | |

Posted: 6/20/2006 2:06:33 PM | What the hell does homeless have to do with it?
And..no,I wouldn't,because I can control my finances,as small as they are,why shouldn't a man be able to?
It's not about the size of a wallet,although you seem to think it is.
Most women would like to meet a man who has his act together,even if it means working for less than stellar wages.
I would not expect any man to live off of me,and I would not expect to live off of a man.
Your posts don't make any sense. | |

Posted: 6/20/2006 2:16:00 PM | Hm, is it a full moon out or are you men/guys just dating the same woman/women? I go by personality and chemistry, not income-I have met-{and am divorced from one}-some men with lots of money and not too much else to offer. Personality and chemistry-and shared interests, among others, last long after the money is gone....But I guess that's too complicated for some people-or is it just me? Who knows???:-) And BTW, I married the rich guy before I knew he had lots of money-never took that too seriously about him anyway, he was the most frugal man I've ever met, anyway. He spent more time with the guys than me, so....guess I should have known better...but I do know now.... | |

There, you just gave us all a really big clue as to what your problem really is...
you are shallow and selfish. THAT'S what's scaring the women off, not your currently limited income. Yes, being short on funds might make the average gal with any street smarts put a yellow flag next to your name, but if she really liked you she'd try to keep in mind that you are just starting a new career and cut you some slack.
That said, I think probably it is your attitude rather than your finances that are making your dating life harder than it needs to be.
I mean this with kindness and respect,because it's TOUGH for middle aged people to date/form GOOD relationships, and I want you to do well! But I think you need to look at your attitude rather than your income as the reason for your current difficulties..
