To briefly piggyback on Kunoichi's well-stated point, by sheer numbers alone most men and women are not wealthy, so people who are unpleasant to be around generally belong to a lower income bracket.
As a case in point, I'm not wealthy at all but have always felt that I'm a more desirable partner by virtue of the extraordinary traits I inherited from my parents. In essence, I want what I want. Whether that makes me an "asshole" is immaterial to my concerns.

I am so loving you right now. 1000 thank yous my friend. Sometimes I swear I'm speaking arabic on this forum lol.
IDK, if money didn't mean anything to women in a relationship, why do so many couples argue over it?I know it's not men arguing with themselves.
On a side-note, I noticed a leap being made that poor guy = nice guy, and rich guy = asshole. When courting/relationship scenerios were presented, somehow the man who had money was dismissed as being shallow, flash, not a real man, or a cold, silent, dinner partner shit guy who treats women crappy?? Since when did men with money become such villians?(too much media stereotype maybe?) There are a lot of loving, sweet, devoted men who are also well off. I mean for real for real, there are broke-ass pricks in this world as much as there are rich ones.
Is it so bad that a woman finds a man who is financially stable an attractive quality? Personally, a man that makes enough money to alter his life is to be applauded...more often than not, there is as much blood sweat sacrifice and tears put into his work as perhaps a construction worker, janitor or burger-flipper that are getting all the love in this thread.
If you think about it, the qualities needed to financially succeed in life are very often what many women say they want - it just so happens that the rewards for the man are a better paycheck. Often times, he has gotten a degree, so he's intelligent; he may have worked his way from the bottom to the top, so he's how do you say it...a guy who sticks it out/ sticks around...is dedicated; he may be self made, so he's creative, has perserverence, is loyal, he's putting in his all all to see his baby get off the ground...those are great qualities!
Women say 'I want a hard-working man" when in reality, that actually is a man who works hard for his money.

I see dating as a type of relationship so no ceegarr.
And even so, makes no difference, unless we specifically are talking about fuckbuddies and nothing else.
Mr hairsplitter.. lets just give this a rest and lets do a mass topless skye session. HAHAHA - w Tarshis love box.. it took me a while to realize she mean her computer. When she said her love box had kicked the bucket I nearly died.

But that isn't what you have said my lovely. Its a big difference between what you have said and what Kuno stated imo. You just grasp every chance to be right and have someone back you up. argh - never mind.

It sure was but since a favorite on here said its not longer a problem followed by a fellow a woman so now that wasn't my original or what I say all the time. That money matters. A lot of you keep saying you could care less because you can take care of yourselves I point out that's not the rule. But I'm bitter and living in a bubble so what do I know lol. Like I said agreeing to disagree my friend

Actually FG, while that wasnt the gist of my point, but if you want to get semantic, it was said (and often) in regard to seeking a mate...(in fact, money was completely disregarded as quality in any capacity during courtship)...
"Wealth really isn't attractive to me because most of the men attached to that wealth are huge assholes"
^^ (and this was co-signed by another)
"No, I don't think the majority of women are attracted to wealth"
"I know several women who don't put money as even in the top 10 of things they look for in a man."
"I don't know why you get so hung up thinking women are so drawn to money, when you've had a whole forum of women telling you "Not in my top 10, I can make my own money."
"But in 40 years of dating and relationships, I have never once considered the income/career of a man in making decisions about who to date. And note that I said date - clearly I've already communicated that money has zip to do with relationships, but I want you to understand it played no part in attraction either."
"I don't know why you keep trying to tell us we want something we are clearly telling you we do NOT want"
"What counts is empathy, intelligence, loyalty, things like that. LOYALTY is what makes a man stick around and help you raise kids. Not money."
"Like Pixie said, I have never considered money when evaluating whether or not I wanted to date someone. NEVER."
"Money has never entered into the equation for me.
The only job-related criteria I've ever cared about is whether or not he has one....I will NOT be one of those women who dates an unemployed guy...He has to be motivated to do something with his life"
"I've been dating for over 20 years and not once has salary ever entered my mind when wanting to date a guy. There are too many more important things I'd rather have in a boyfriend than how much he brings home every pay day"
"it doesn't matter how much money he makes."
"Wealth is NOT attractive because wealth has NOTHING to do with who a man is or what he's about as a person. I have NEVER been impressed by a man's wealth, & I never will be."
'Women, i general are more romantic and are looking for that pretty love story, not money."
"Happiness have always been my goal, never money"
So as you see, there is a definitive pattern throughout by many posters...the gist cannot be denied.
And I luv ya too, always...We're merely debating a topic.

I can't speak for all couples who argue over money, but I believe when couples argue over finances, it has to do with racking up credit card debt, child care expenses, vacations, basically over extending themselves. Most people (before the recession hit) were NOT living within their means. Houses were getting bigger, people who had no business getting mortgages for these houses were getting mortgages, they couldn't afford to furnish all of the rooms, so half of the rooms are empty of furnishings: this is all a recipe for financial disaster.
I think people are learning what it means to live within your means now. If you live within your means, you don't have to argue about money.
On a side-note, I noticed a leap being made that poor guy = nice guy, and rich guy = asshole. When courting/relationship scenerios were presented, somehow the man who had money was dismissed as being shallow, flash, not a real man, or a cold, silent, dinner partner shit guy who treats women crappy??

I never implied that all rich men were dicks and poor men were great. In fact, in my experiences with my 2 marriages, the bigger dick was the guy who made a lot less money.
But you cannot deny that when someone makes a lot of money they are driven to do so. Being driven, in theory, is not a bad quality, but in reality, it means long nights at the office, traveling across the country/world for jobs, bringing the stress of the job home with you, checking work emails at midnight.
Someone who makes that kind of money rarely has time to be fully there when he/she is with their significant other. You have to make sacrifices in your personal life if you want to succeed in your professional life. You have to. That's how the world works.
