@divine1966, I agree 100% about character. However, since my last two serious relationships involved men who used and abused me and including financially, I don't see anything wrong with wanting someone who makes more than I do. I want to be treated out. I want someone who can pay for a full vacation. I actually want these things. I do not want to have to be the one to pay for every vacation and/or nice dinner out. I want to be treated. What's wrong with that scenario?

@MisterPaul, not weird. I make a lot of money now. I've had TWO abusers who used me financially within the last 6 years. I am DONE with that scenario. So what if I want someone who is ambitious, very successful and who makes a lot of money? I don't want to be the breadwinner anymore. I am not a gold digger. I am simply raising the standards in every single way. I'm ambitious and very successful. So I want the same in a man, and I want to be treated. What's WEIRD to ME is to be the breadwinner!!! I do NOT want that. In five years, I can be making over 200K. I need my equal.

AND.... I AIM to be making over 200K in five years. Why the HELL would I want anyone who makes like 50K? They would the gold digger.

In MY field, people with 15 years experience who consult they charge $400- 500 per hour! That's where I will be in five years and I want to own my own business.

SO, Yea, hell yeah I want someone very successful, ambitious, WITH STRONG CHARACTER who happens to also make a lot of money.
