Hey worriedfear,
I don't know where this question is coming from but this is like one of those psychological questions. Not every women are the same just like not every men are same. Specially nowadays when women are progressing on the business world and earning for themselves. But this is also true that there are some kind of women who like to have a pertner with a status.
Women are known to be the emotional individual, so more than anything they always seek a chance to bond. Affection is always what makes a women stay in a relationship no matter what reason she came for. So, women not only look for someone to provide for them but also to be emotionally dependent on them too.
I hope I helped you with your quarries.
