Plus, I don't believe MOST women really look for a RICH man, most of women are looking for a good provider who has a stable income. (most women are really not gold diggers) Women want to feel appreciated, loved, respected, we want to feel beautiful.
I agree... this has been my experience with women. I love respect and appreciate women... and I know a good chunk of men do too... sometimes what we read around here isn't indicative of real life....

Yes I really believe most men are good men. Most women are good women. We all make mistakes but so what? Life is still beautiful. Men should stop worrying about making more money. Just be the best they can be. That is all we can do anyway.

Great post. I'd give your more reputation points if I could.

Exactly. And Hugh Hefner has to deal with the fact that these women are just using him for his money. If that's the kind of relationship you want, I say go for it. It's not appealing to me at all.
There's the extreme instance of women using a guy only for money, but practically all women would consider it a bonus, or a requirement, for a guy to be well-to-do.
A guy who makes, say, $120,000/year, isn't "rich", but he makes enough to be paying off a mortgage on a nice townhouse, driving a base-level BMW that he owns, eating at a fancy restaurant once a week and taking 3 vacations every year. A woman who makes an average income could have a significant boost to her standard of living if she was in a serious relationship with him. All other things being equal, she would go out with him rather than a guy who makes the same amount of money she does.
"But all things are never equal!"
Yes, I know, but any woman who is decently attractive has enough options that she can choose among many different guys making 6 figures.

Exactly. And a well-to-do guy has the ability to make you feel that way. You can more easily be your most beautiful because you'll have the time and money to go to the spa, buy expensive clothes, eat salads for every meal, etc.

I'm not sure that's what she meant. It's not what I was thinking, anyway.

This is nothing but chest beating and hubris. Though I won't argue against the

This is nothing but chest-beating and hubris. Though I won't argue against the concept that most women don't want a deadbeat for a SO, what's all this gobbledygook that all women have a requirement to be with a man that's well-off? That's BS, and if you take a look at US Census Bureau data, you would understand why. The median individual income in this country is around $40k/yr +/- a few grand. Median household income is around $50k. Given your argument, the vast majority of men and women would not be married because of a woman's "requirement" that he be well-to-do, making $120k/yr and driving a BMW around town.
