Is it wrong to want a guy to save you?

[WizardOfRadical]

I will help people out as a Catholic. But on a relationship level, there is no bigger turn off than a woman who can't get her life together (exceptions obviously for women who have endured real trauma)

We are all missing something we hope to find in a partnership of some kind. That doesn't always have to amount to salvation.

Yes.
That's not the job of your partner.
And you shouldn't even have a partner until you can get a handle on how to solve your own problems as a grown-up adult.

There's plenty of 'daddies' out there to rescue women like you. But don't expect to have an opinion on anything, don't expect to be taken serious.

You don't get to be the damsel in distress and the strong Independent woman at the same time. Pick one... (I'd pick strong and independent, much easier to look at yourself in the mirror).

Men aren't financial plans or psychiatrists. Don't depend on a man to figure you out. You women wanted independence.........

Exactly, enjoy whatever life you create for yourself.

Among the men who might want to "save" a woman, you'll probably find many who believe that "saving" her includes pretty much owning her. You would be wise to be wary of those men.

Everyone wants a partner that needs them, but a partner that is needy is a huge turn-off. There is a fine line between needing and needy. Practice confidence in handling your stress but share with and seek advice from your partner. Act as though you don't need saving but when they do step in and save the day, give lots of appreciation.
