When dating, is it wrong to want a man to match what you earn, if not more?


If that is what a single woman is wanting, then she isn't seeking love. Instead, she is seeking a lifestyle.

Right now, my only source of income are the monthly SSDI payments that I receive from the U.S. government. Does my low level of income make me incapable of giving love and support to a woman? I think not.



I am thinking you are missing the point. No one said you are incapable of giving love and support to a woman; however I know what it is like to foot the bill to support a man and almost lost my home doing it. I think anyone in a relationship should share equal payments when living together and ideally it should be 50/50 which means you should both be making the same or close to the same amount of money to survive. It may not be romantic but its practical.

If they can.
I've stated out with women who could pull my weight.
I didn't boot em out just cuz circumstances changed.

That old term 'it's the man's place to support the woman ' has yet to die. Women's lib fought hard to get women out of that mind set.

I have one right now,who, for the last 4 years has survived cancer.

I can see it if, the partner is just a sponge.

Not like Spongebob. He's a workaholic.

I'm not concerned about what kind of lifestyle he lives or what kind of money he makes. Me, I can take care of myself.

I would have trouble meshing with someone who is very irresponsible with money though.

If he is motivated and practical enough to sustain the lifestyle he lives, tells me he is a responsible person. To me that means he is not likely to be a blatant cause of financial disaster in our future, and will be a level headed and proactive partner if circumstances ever lead to money troubles.

:thumbsup: right. I am more concerned about his having a compatible (in my case that means conservative) attitude about money so that we are compatible. so we don;t end up trying to tell each other how to spend their money. that is just an argument waiting to happen
