Mnhiker & Ilikeflipflops have both said what I would ike to say; only maybe better than I may have said it. So true.

To add however: Some women use this and excuse when they're always getting their hands caught in the cookie jar with their mouth full of cookies. If U know what I mean. They are always unfaithful, which goes with lies. They cannot be trusted anymore. Some like matresses.

And they say: "I know what is his problem. He is feeling INTIMIDATED because I am working for twice his salary. So he gets in a rage." This is amidst the family of excuses like: "The man aint want me to talk to nobody; I cyar even go to pee without he accusing me of cheating."

babydoll sounds like your coming across with the "SugerMomma" syndrome with these men you attract .

on the other hand maybe it's true what they say about some wealthy people they are fake and plastic?

it has been my experience that most wealthy people are ego centric and eclectic.

but in defense of that I have a few very wealthy friends who are great people and still single .

the sooner people realise it's not about material possessions and how many 0's you have in your bank account the better they will be in finding some one compatible.

if a man can not respect a Woman for how hard She works then maybe he shouldn't be with her in the first place.

some of the best life changing dates I have ever been on took place over ice cream...not some big huge fancy restaurant sipping wine(although thats fun when you do).

money is a tool what we do with it defines our actions.

Seriously, though.... I agree with bay.... it ain't the wrapper that's important, so much as the cookies inside the package.

Or something like that.....

Amen Bay to:
>The brain and the heart. That's what it's all about!

If you got 2 on a path together that is success, it should not matter about the money...life has a way of providing in all areas...once you find the right one...

Flipflops....

>Some studies have shown that we have much more in common than previously thought. Other studies have shown that males would rather prefer a beautiful lady working at minimum wage, while a female prefers a ”non-attractive" male making good money.

Ummmmm which studies?? noway Real legit ones? You can't always believe the studies out there....

Sometimes when you pick up a book that may look tattered and torn on the cover may be filled with a story beyond belief that you have to read over and over....another book may be attractive on the cover, but can't even get past page 3...yawn

I know....off the original topic lol but had to say it....

Not intimidated by successful women, but I have heard that some guys are. Usually I hear it from women who consider themselves beautiful and successful. I would venture a guess that successful women do not make themselves available on a wholesale basis, just because of their personality types. If a woman is successful and that stems from focus and concentrated effort in her business life, which to some degree it ordinarily does, then it would follow that she is not spending her time in the bars being approached by assorted men. This could sway the perception and lead them to believe that because they are seldom approached, that men are intimidated by then, when in fact they are simply not available.

Every relationship I've ever had has been with women who needed someone to support them constantly and look after them. I personally would find a self-assured, independent woman refreshing and attractive. Whether she made more money than me or not wouldn't (and shouldn't) enter into it.

I would prefer to give her support in her passion, as I hope she, mine. Just means you are at a more comfortable spot. I will find my way!!!

Very well said Philosopher...:smile:

That would be an ideal world Jason, but sometimes society plays a bigger role on what is perceived to be the norm... but some men are at a point where the money or success or whatever "it" is, doesn't become a factor of intimidation for them...but some can't get past it....

Meh, I figure if a guy is that easily intimidated, he doesn't deserve anything better than the bimbo working at McDonald's. (Yeah, my ex works at McDonald's hehe)

Jason - there's got to be a tall club not to far away from your city. Just google it. I belong to a local tall club (150 members) where the women must be at least 5'10" and men 6'2".
