Heck, money isn't that much of a big deal. Let's go for a walk in the park, or rent a movie....


THANK YOU!drinks

Might be that you are really pretty and at first they are just hoping that you don't come with all that responsibility. When men are looking at a pretty women it kind of affects their hearing even if you are telling them straight up.

Maybe the idea that you would walk out spooked him. Guys don't like getting dumped so they beat you to the punch? Who knows. The whole Stepdaddy thing is a big issue for some folks. I am not sure it is all money but it is a lot to take on a whole family even if the partner is capeable.


It was TOO early in the game for my kids to have even been an issue for him.
Besides...he claims to have loved me. He wanted me to be his wife but he seriously had issues with the money thing!
He was wealthy at one point in his life and lost a lot of it to a partner that embezzled from the company.
He seemed frustrated to have met me "unexpectedly".


His pride is battered. If you really like him ask to meet for coffee & talk about it.

Listen, what I would do if I really wanted him is I would dig into his past and see how long he can hold a job and how long he can hold a buck. I would see if he is one to borrow money without payback or borrow money with payback, but ideally you don't want to be in a relationship with someone that borrows money at all. The frequency of borrowing money really matters here.

How long has he been without a job? Remember this is a recession so it may just be a temporary financial matter. What jobs did he hold? How much income does he make per year? What's his salary?


If he is always in debt, you better run your ass off because once he has access to your bank account, it's like poking a large hole in a bucket of water.
wOULD you give me your complete credit history now please???bigsmile

How many kids do you have???? Like someone else here said.......maybe he can barely take care of himself let alone you and your children.

And if he wants to date you....then there is the possibility of marriage sometime up the road.....yes>>?>???


a + b = Cdrinker


Yes, Marriage was something he wanted from me...
I wasn't ready for any of that.
I was trying to deal with and UNDERSTAND the issues at hand...
I wouldn't want to spend the rest of my life reassuring a man that he IS actually a man.noway
He has to figure out and come to terms with that crap on his own.

Oh no...
He has been out of the picture for well over a year.
I brought the topic up because my best friend is having the same thing done to her.

I can only speak from my experience...I don't have many details about the other guy so I shared my story with you.

The current economic climate has a lot of people spooked and if he has had a tramatic financial past maybe he is just stressed out generally and it is not so much you then. Sorry it happen to you. It gets old spinning your wheels with people who haven't got their stuff together to move forward.

i think men say it cause they either arent interested or the woman in their eyes,by talkin to them seems money hungry or to high maintenance.:smile:


So sad that he would think such because I am as reasonable as they come.

How much more humbled could I possibly be... A single mom, widow, with 2 boys...
I have been slapped with a serious dose of reality.
I appreciate people on a genuine level

If I have to "dig up" all of that information- He isn't worth the time.

Besides...you would be a psycho of sorts if you did that.spock

Would "I have herpes" work better? Or is that too much detail? No, I got one...I'm missing both arms and only have 7 toes. That one is ace.smokin
