I just meant it is the same if he doesn't want to date girls with kids as a woman not wanting to date a man if he doesn't make enough money.



Attention angry women. Please do not reply with any of the following.

1. It's not the money it's his goals.

2. I don't need a mans money.

3. there is too many others to list. But, the point is most women do.

I openly stated all the time on the boards (as well to the men that I dated) that if a man didn't make bank, we did not go out. I would tell the men, "ALL the men I date make bank. Why should I give my time to YOU?"

I have NEVER taken offense for a man honestly expressing his dating criteria so I don't see why any man should take offense for MY honesty.

Honestly, I am trying to figure why ANYONE would be offended by another openly admitting to their dating criteria. Doesn't make a lot of sense to me.


As a side note I am still trying to figure out WTF was wrong w/me for marrying a broke dick dog.

Because you know broke is temporary and poor is forever. Since he was a former CEO of blahblah you knew he wouldnt be broke for long.

You all do not know the full story and I will not get into it. This is far more complicated than him just being homeless and starting from scratch. If that was the case, EVERY SINGLE problem I brought into our relationship would have been ancient history in a flash. Hell, I would have never even found out he was broke. He could have recovered THAT quickly.

I am not trying to offend anyone here, but from the vantage point that you cite (and from where I sit too) poor = not too bright. And my number one criteria for perspective date = SMART.

One of the most amazing men that I dated was born BIGTIME backwoods poor, N Carolina DIRT POOR - four to a bed in a one room shack with four beds. He altered his birth certificate and enlisted when he was only 15. The man NEVER even finished high school, let alone attended college. He was INCREDIBLY SMART though. He was 65 when we dated, had EXCELLENT taste, was very down to earth and owned near half the state of Florida. He made every dime honestly and with the power of his BRAIN.

That sort of person is what attracted me and though he was very taken with me he dumped me because he could not handle the drama that my ex was wreaking in my life.... and I can't say that I blamed him, though I felt duped to a certain extent as I never hid it from him and a man of his life experience should have been able to *get it*n before he pursued me full steam ahead. I was happy to keep our relatioship friendly and casual, but he insisted he wanted so much more then just ran when he felt himself getting to close - what kind of lilly livered bullshit was that?

But hey, it was a lesson well-learned. I just realized that to the laundry list, one more characteristic was mandatory in any man I would allow into my life - GUTS and HONOR to back it. So I held out until My Old Grump came along and said that he was up to the task if I would have him.... and so far, he has been.

I am very blessed.
