You really chinese?
Well the question fits the stereotype

Women are hypergamous anyway. They won't be with somebody poorer than them. Women are always after the better option. The best man. The better opportunities.

Few men are lucky. My millionarie cousin married a guy poorer than her and all he has to do is go on world trips and sleep with her to get her pregnant so daddy can have his grandkids... the lucky SOB.

if you know someone point her my way will ya? ;-)

Also queenstown is very expensive FYI

The real question if an rich would date someone who is having less money then her, guys get rejected because of this far more then girls. Personally I don't care much for money, I would not date an girl who is taller then me, but I can date an girl who is richer then me, even though she may try to manipulate me with it, so it's having an advantages and disadvantages.

What if she would, but her family doesn't really approve of you?

I am not rebellious by nature and I am not looking for trouble, so an girl's family approval actually means much for me, it would be an problematic situation to say the least.

If you are asking me, then my answer is I have decided to stay single till death, so I am never going on a date.

However in general, yes why not, the woman being richer than man is not going to be a problem, the important point is her personality and her thought process. For example if the woman is very rich but at the same time is humble, soft hearted, also confident and is highly principled by nature then I am sure a man would not have any problem dating such a woman.

I would, but I'm pretty sure a girl richer than me won't date me anyway. Women date up, men date down. Remember?

Yea that generally is the norm, just curious to see if men could swallow such ego.

I personally have no such ego, but I would never approach a women richer than me. That would mean I'm setting myself up for rejection. So the only way it could happen, is if she shows interest in me herself.

The claim that we have some ego crap is just shit women make up to put this on men so they don't feel like shallow cunts.

Men seriously don't give a shit.

I don't care if she is richer or no.. in all cases i'm the man and i'm the dominant and i don't need her money , I'm the one who will control the house physically.
So she has to adapt to my life if she really loves me whatever i'm rich or no.

Yes, I will be honest and say that the only instance where it would worry me if she was more financially successful than I was if I didn't have any financial success at all. But if I can easily provide for myself then her status doesn't matter at all to me. Yea sure it may be awkward due to some ancient gender expectations but IDGAF about that so long as we love each other.

Well I would be dating HER not her family. She would have to be the adult that decides whether she follows her heart or her family's whims. If I liked her then I wouldn't care about her family's disapproval but in the end it's her decision to make. Her own family after all.

It's not so much about men ego as much as for the fact that women are usually the ones who is caring too much about how money that man is having. Also if an girl is rich then he would better watch out for male gold diggers. :)
