When you first meet a person, you don't know what you're getting. No one does. We naturally go after people that we are attracted to physically.

I like to think I have a good eye for what's attractive. What seems to be happening as of late is I'll meet when that are "packaged" well but they don't have anything. When I say anything, that's what I mean.

They don't have--
Car
Their own place
Child support
Job


But they do have--
the current "styles"
empty pockets
Style over substance


I have had 3 women that I met( I no longer talk to any of them) ask me for money. My response is always: "Did you ask the childs father for child support, if not, don't ask me for it?"

OH BOY---that reply gets them mad as hell!!!

These women are all about style over substance. I cannot for the life of me figure out why these women ask men for money. I guess when you're raised to work and be responsible for you life, the thougyt of me asking women for money is not in my DNA.

Sounds like your the common denominator here.

Why are you dating this type of women repeatedly?

Yep. Just like the girls who somehow keep ending up with guys who just use them for sex.

Sigh....

I feel that its rude to ask people for money unless you've known them for a while. When the economy is bad you will meet a lot of women who look good but they dont have anything to show for it. Sounds like your choosing the women who look like easy hookups, step your game up.

How do you find these types? You might try going for a bit of substance over style, yourself.

Yep, as findly pointed out, you're the common denominator. And what it really does come down to is that you are SEEKING style over substance.

I don't know where you're meeting these women, but if it's in a bar, talk with them for a good long time before you ask them out. If it's online, read the profile before you look at the pictures.

Yeah, we all go for what attracts us, but if you're solely going after the women you personally rank as 10s and overlooking the 5-9s, that would likely be your problem.

For that matter, what are you bringing to the table?

I agree here. You need to perhaps relax some standards and mix it up. This is clearly a pattern with you. I am not sure what the original OP brings to the table but he must have at least some stability if they are looking for money.

I have always found it annoying when people do not accept responsibility for their own role in these situations.

Johnny, I would be willing to bet that you routinely consistently pass over women of substance because they don't look like pornstars and strippers.
