Girls, would you date a poor guy?

[Anonymous]

Yes

No way

[Anonymous]

What matters to me is not if he has a lot of money, what matters to me is if he uses the little money he has wisely. I was raised to save my money and never buy stuff I can't afford. Also if I have to choose between a month of food or a game I'd pick the first.

So I would, but only if they spend the little money they have wisely. Problem is 9/10 times (the ones I met) are broke, and still spend money on games etc. and then I'd be like: yeah gl, not getting on that boat.

If he’s poor because he makes poor life decisions then probably not but if he’s poor cause life’s giving him shit and he’s just unlucky then yeah because I️ grew up poor and impoverished and I️ feel like guys that also know what it’s like to be poor, value things more

[Zelea]

Define poor.
Homeless poor
Almost homeless/half the time straving poor
He has never had any "for fun money", aka living pay check to paycheck, poor.

The last guy is fine with me as long as he's self sustaining and wants and is trying to do better

[PrincessBunBuns]

Well, I dated two people who came from extremely low income families. The rest are kind of from a different country where it's really poor. I really don't mind. All I need is a guy who visits me often.

[maestrodematimaticas]

I can't imagine why a woman would unless he had a good job but was recently divorced and taken to the cleaners financially. The only acceptable reason for a guy being poor is a steep child support payment.

[Logorithim]

While there are some women who would, we already know most won't, because poor men are known to not have relationships, or only unstable, temporary ones, in most societies.

[Logorithim]

In the country I live in, for example, men with low incomes are unwanted to the extent that they have the lowest fertility rates despite the existence of a welfare state. That makes it crystal clear.

My mother in law is the bread winner in her relationship. She runs a business and has a million dollar property. Her live in boyfriend is a part time reliever for a high school, and he goes through bouts of unemployment. She bought her property with him, even though he only contributed about 5% to it. he's 65 and it's his very first home. She also bought him a brand new Ford Mustang that he drives to work 😂

[Logorithim]

That may be more common in that particular age group, but it's still definitely out of the ordinary.

[morningstar01]

The guy I've had babies with was "poor" when I met him. All my boyfriends have been poor except for one. The rich one wasn't successful because we weren't compatible. As long as my poor boyfriend tries his best and is a good person, there's no reason in my eyes I should fault. I value connection over consumption

[unknown8272819291]

I would not care about his financial status unless he wasn’t trying to do anything to change it. Being unmotivated and wanting to stay on in the same lower or middle class your whole life is boring, also there are many other factors such as hygiene, manners, etc. It does not cost much to have a shower and if financial situation are very dear then a wash cloth in water would not harm anyone.

[NicoletteKomotov]

Not unless he had a plan to fix that or else you or someone will be carrying him forever.

[Anonymous]

Yes. people can't choose which family they are born in. As long as they are honest and hardworking, that's honestly enough for me. However if he is poor because of bad habits such as gambling, then no.

[SteamBuns]

Lol, you areyoung, of courses you would have said this, when u grow older you'll realize what the fuck u just said lmao

[morningstar01]

@SteamBuns that's not true. Not everyone values consumption over connection.

[_bunny_]

Yes I have it actually made me feel more independent cause I was able to buy him things he needed it was nice but we're not together anymore

[SweedyPie]

I don't care how much he owns as long as he has ambition.

[fauchelevent]

Sure. My boyfriend is pretty poor, he doesn't have a paying job. We manage regardless.

[Pikachula]

Yes but I won't be paying everything for him, he needs to earn his own money.

[xYlo-84S_S]

I'm poor and women would date me. Once they saw how magnificent I was as a great creature, it would convict them of not wanting to date future poor men and they would date men. I have a 100% success rate of changing women's hearts and minds.

[disgustingweebtrash]

>71% of women said yeah

I call complete bullshit

[unyieldinggirl]

Let me guess... you know these women personally

[disgustingweebtrash]

@unyieldinggirl Yeah

[Eyes_On_Me]

Lol that's disappointing to me. 29% of women, so more than 1 in 4, are choosing who they'll date based on a person's wealth. How shallow is that?

[unyieldinggirl]

Lol ok

[possiedun]

any gender can ask me anything I might know the answer and I might not
who knows

[Anonymous]

Only if they think the poor guy is good-looking enough.

[Anonymous]

Oh yes I will and help him out. Says the angel that is not exist.

[2opaz]

all the girls who said yes are lying hard af

[grapefruit11]

ALL? Are the girls who said yes because they have actually dated poor guys lying too? Do you really think no one has ever dated a poor guy before?

[2opaz]

@grapefruit11 yes.

[morningstar01]

@grapefruit11 hmmm... it seems like some men need to get out more and stop comparing the socialites on "real housewives" or whatever it called to the every day woman. My mum helped my step dad out of homelessness. Does she not count? I had my babies with a man who was by social definition "poor" . We're a lot more well off now, but I'm not with him because of that, plus I also contribute to our family. There are good genuine people out there.

[2opaz]

y'all need to calm down

[Curiousbynature31]

Who cares, I would rather be happy than rich

[nickyBBB]

Hmm as long as he doesn't depend on me

[CT_CD]

All this poll tells me is that a lot of women lie

[morningstar01]

How did you come to this conclusion? Do you know these women personally. Interesting that a higher percentage of men wouldn't date a poorer woman. I'm guessing because they assume poor women are just after his $$. Also funny that some men don't like a liberated woman who makes more than them. Damned if you do, Damned if you don't.
Sorry to burst your bubble, but not all women buy into the trend of "consuming".
My mum pulled my step dad out of homelessness. He's almost 70 and can't work due to a sickness. My mum is financially supporting him because she genuinely loves him. It happens.

[unyieldinggirl]

Let me guess... you know these women personally 🙄

[Anonymous]

It depends mostly on how he uses the money he has.

[dna1821]

I have never date with a rich guy yet 😅

[clampfan101]

I certainly wouldn’t mind dating a poor girl.
