What do women want online???

Hi,

I left an answer on your new post. Don't give up!!

You should post that on your profile. The whole thing...

I don't think it's shallow. Just realistic. If I took on a man who makes minimum wages, I'd have to support him and significantly alter my life style (no travel no cultural events that cost money etc). I wouldn't be willing to make such sacrifice so I can have a man.

Most certainly I'd support/assist people in need and change mylife style for people in my family like my parents and my kid and my brother or if my husband becomes incapacitated etc of course I'll support them but it's different, they are my family, not a stranger I deliberately looked for.

Now if you look for a woman who also makes very little, then it's fair as neither one of you will have to make much change in life style or support one another. So imho it's not very fair to look for professional career oriented women, they most likely will say no.

Why does this conversation keep circling around money????

And why are there so many cookie cutter rules for the right mate?

Geez, live a bit.

As a woman I can honestly say that all I want is honest and sincere interest from a guy. Not just sexual interest, mind you, but interest in something more along the lines of actual romance and such.

However, that sort of thing is honestly dead now.

There are no cookie cutter rules at all. It all depends on individual and what they want in life at the moment.

I lived a ton, not a bit lol had tons of casual dating, friends with benefits, got married, divorced, had a very long term relationship, enjoyed singlehood with no dating etc and now am happily married second time. I clearly lived more than a bit.

When I dated casually or had friends with benefits I had one set of requirements, but when I decided I am interested in marrying again my requirements changed.

The focus isn't on money but you can't deny importance of it. I have a life long career and have no interest in taking on a man. I wanted an equal partner. I had no interest to become poor so I can have a man. So money matters when you want commitment

When a person just want sex and casual interaction, then it doesn't matter. But OP says he wanted women in open marriages. Well he is looking in wrong places to begin with.

I'm not sure where one would find women in open marriages.

Then you might be looking into poly relationships.

And yes I understand that money matters but I think OP was looking for a date.
