Posted: 1/3/2008 6:23:36 AM | I'm a guy without alot of money. I get a disability pension and I have to make that stretch for myself to live on. This takes away dinners in restaurants and going to see movies. The cost of that nowadays is beyond ridiculous. A steak dinner for two can cost around $50.
Does a restriction like this play alot into the dating factor for you? Not being able to go to places you want because of money issues. I can't work, so it's not as if my situation will change in the future.
Just wanting some opinions on this. | |

I'm a guy without alot of money.
Hi OP.......Iam sorry to say it.....but guys with little money have little chance with women who make a reasonable amount of money themselves..
Perhaps you might be better off trying to search for women whose financial status resembles your own....
Sorry OP....life kind of sucks.. | |

my answer to that would be yes!
the reason for this, is that i have a good job, i earn good money so i can afford some luxuries for me and my kids, and if i buy dinner for a potential date, then i expect him to be able to do the same for me!

sorry Op but i think Marius is right there!
sorry to sound harsh, and i know it does there, but some women are accustomed to "steak dinners that cost 50 dollars or more and maybe dont want to settle for less!
and i know im going to get a bollicking over this, sorry! | |

Posted: 1/3/2008 6:45:44 AM | lol so then is this site completely pointless for me or I should keep fishing?
I've run across women on here who don't even have jobs, yet want guys to have at least have one. That just isn't in the cards for me.
You guys aren't being harsh, it's just the fact of the matter. I do not have money, nor ever will. | |

Posted: 1/3/2008 7:01:30 AM | We had a thread yesterday on "what if a guy makes half of what you make... would it bother you?"... And, most of the women came out and said "No, not at all".
Strangely enough, now that we have a specific situation and a guy saying "dinner and movie might not be an option" there are fewer responses... Funny, no?
I say it here. I said it there.
I say it everywhere.
I could care less.
I cannot afford to be a sugra momma. And, I am not looking for a sugar daddy. Apart from that, I could care less. Money is irrelevant in my little world.
But, that's mostly because human monies are of little value to us aliens....

I don't think so. For what I have, I can't even see a specialist here because there is none for what I have. I have to see an MS doctor. (I have symptoms very close to MS).
I can easily look into some kind of qualification to work at home on a computer, but I don't know of any jobs that are like that. | |

I know that, but where are these women. I don't feel like picking up chicks in the doctor's waiting room. That's just not polite. | |

Posted: 1/3/2008 7:26:02 AM | | It would not matter to me how much money you have just as long as YOU can afford to support and feed YOURSELF. I can take care of my own financial things and i like guys to do the same. I would NEVER expect a guy to take me to a resteraunt and pay $50 for the meal. Just being together... watching a movie we would both enjoy, cuddled together at night on the sofa is just as nice and romantic then being dined at an OTT resteraunt. | |

Posted: 1/3/2008 7:53:59 AM | | I want to be taken out once in a while. I don't necessarily want someone who makes a lot of money, and I don't mind paying sometimes, but I don't ever want to have to pay every time. | |

Posted: 1/3/2008 8:04:51 AM | I'm gonna say for me...no it doesn't make a big difference
I went from dating a man who pulled in a good amount of money to a guy who was up to his eyes in debt and didn't make a lot of money.
Dates needn't be to a fancy restaurant...a little creativity can turn an empty wallet into a fun date. | |

Posted: 1/3/2008 8:33:00 AM | I never date someone for financial gain,so it does not matter to me what someone's income is.
Besides,there are creative ways of spending time with someone,without having to spend money. | |

Posted: 1/3/2008 11:29:40 AM | Dude....this is a great site to meet someone. What does suck, is that nobody is comfortable just enjoying eachothers company. Everybody wants to go out danceing, or to a movie...or whatever. Not alot of people just want to go to a sunny park, put a blanket down, have a sandwich...and soda, and get to know somone. It has to be loud, and there has to be drinks involved...because women/men are that insecure.
What gets me the most, is when someone says..
" I dont want to pay every time "....
What makes you think that he/she will want you to? When your poor, going out is not a big deal. Friday night.....IS JUST ANOTHER NIGHT. The OP can back me up on this. | |

Posted: 1/3/2008 11:32:16 AM | | I have to admit that, yes, your lack of funds would irk me into dumping you. Part of what is fun for me is going out to dinners, etc. Not that I think you should pay each time, but I don't want to hear you whine about the cost each time, either. I don't need a rich man, but I need a man who can do simple things [like the occasional steak dinner--which can cost WAYYYY more than $50 BTW] without worrying too much about it. | |

A steak dinner for two can cost around $50. Well then, date a vegetarian. | |

Hell yeah. To me a nice night would be getting a new cd and listening to it together. Or me playing me guitar for her while we had a nice homemade dinner. Or just watching a dvd together. | |

Posted: 1/3/2008 11:59:09 AM | no,what bothers me are men who CAN work,but won't.They get that curb kick real fast.
Folks,if this young man has M/S type of issues,chronic pain may be a problem for him.
He needs a special womanand I wish him well. | |

Hmmm...a new cd costs $15-20. So do ingredients for a homemade meal.
Both choices are also tough for just meeting someone (most people do not want to go to someone's home right away or have strangers in their home). I don't know what sort of places you have in your area, but I think you just need to be more creative. There are a lot of fun hole-in-the-wall sort of restaurants where 2 people can eat for $20 or less.
You can also make things fun with picnics in the park. You can go to see art exhibits or shows at colleges (these are often free). | |

Posted: 1/3/2008 12:16:25 PM | | Sorry brewtality (great name btw) but your chances are lessened having little or no money. You sound like an honest intelligent guy, so i am sure there is some job you can do, which will bring in an income. anyway good luck with your fishing. | |
