Would you ever date someone just for their money or status?

[coachTanthony]

[DaveJord]

So I have dated people I was on the fence about, so/so in the looks department, and what not. But I dated them because they were cool to hang out with and have fun, or they would fuck without all the drama. So I would not date someone for their money if they were like butt ass ugly, or a total jerk, or asshole, or complete bitch.

But if they were at least average looking and wealthy as hell and interested in me I would totally do it. But like I said they have to be at least average looking and have some type of personality.

Who the hell do I think I am anyway? Some millionaire wants to get with this, who am I to deny them. I mean they would have to wine and dine me a little, but it would not take a lot and who knows maybe over time if I gave them a good enough opportunity I might actually fall in love with them.

So honestly, would I date them just because, or for their money no matter what? Answer is NO WAY!

But would I give some one a chance just for their money and see how it goes? Answer is HELL YES!

And if she wined and dined me and treated me well I would bang the hell out of her, because I am not one of those types that doesn't pony up to the bar at the end of the night either... if I wasn't going to do my man thing no matter what... then I would of ditched out on her after the first drink.

[Avicenna]

Probably not, but i don't rule it out completely.

[Brainsbeforebeauty]

That would be a hell no, people don't get it, money and status are superficial and can be lost...

The innocence of children (till society started fucking up what childhood it's supposed to be)

A beautiful soul, a great mind, a great character, someone that makes you laugh just from their contagious laughter (my neighbor)...

Those are the things that matter..

Well, to me anyway... People can keep chasing money, social status, socially market value people and keep asking where are all the good guys/girls at...

While I might not be "Einstein" at least I knew what matters and maybe why my relationship (good and BAD) lasted 20 years (just saying🤷🏼‍♀️)

[coachTanthony]

Whoa so if money and status couldn't be lost the you would?

[Brainsbeforebeauty]

Nope, those aren't the things that matter to me

[coachTanthony]

Just asking because why would it matter matter if money or status could be lost if that isn't important.

[Brainsbeforebeauty]

It's just to say why do people put dick importance on things that don't matter.. And if you let money or social status define who you are, what/who are you gonna be if you lose that money and social status?
I define myself and others by other things that matter far more than money or social status

[Babygirl_S]

Never! My parents show me guys I don't find attractive and they're filthy rich. They talk about their money and status but it doesn't impress me. I would rather be with a guy I'm crazy about even if his income is lower.
My friends tell me that a man's wealth is more crucial than his appearance and character. I don't believe in any of that.
I must admit I care about passion in a relationship.
I want my man to look and act so sexy that I become obsessed with him. All I want is a handsome man with a stable average income. That would be more than enough.

[Babygirl_S]

Thank you for the MHO!

[jennifer_bloom]

No - I would not be happy if I did not like him and I can't pretend to like somebody I don't.

[midnightmoon05]

I haven’t. Who wouldn’t want a full package giving the opportunity.
I also wonder how many women answered honestly 😂
I have only dated/married with similar ambition/education level. So we work together to make better lives = money and stability.

[EllaNella]

nope, there's multiple reasons for it but the most important one is that i want a partner i can have interesting conversations with and that ist way more important to me than money

[lilyanony1]

If there's a benefit to the situation for me once it's over yes...
Otherwise no.
I'm not shallow or superficial.
But I am trying to be realistic.
Relationships should leave me better than when I came in.
I'm fed up of having to rebuild so much of my life after things end.

[dustybiker]

Money and endless friction? Pass. Money is worthless if you aren’t happy.

[RomanticRealist]

Depends on what you mean. Casual fun dating? Maybe

Serious, looking for partner dating? Definitely not. And that doesn't mean "money doesn't matter" either - it just means I couldn't be dating someone "just for" money. The emotional, intellectual connection is too important to me. He doesn't have to be perfect, but I need more than just money for sure.

[DermalPunch]

No, I absolutely couldn't. I have gine out with wealthy men and most of them were dull because they expected their material things to be enough. Dull as dishwater.

Now, a guy who grinded and came from. nithing and is enjoying the fruits of his peserverance is absolutely an interesting guy. The money is just extra.

[Lyndsielee666]

I dated someone when I was in high school cause he was well known. I got abused for months but at least I became popular 😐😐😐😐😐😐😐

[HiddenKryptonite]

Are you still popular?

If not, want to change that? 👊 🤬💢💥🤕

[Lyndsielee666]

@HiddenKryptonite still know every single person in town so yes

[HiddenKryptonite]

What's the benefits of being popular?

[Lyndsielee666]

@HiddenKryptonite absolutely nothing tbh

[musicbrain5]

No. I don’t give a crap about money and status.

[KelleyNice]

That is not a situation likely to occur. However, if their was some event that I wanted to go to and the best or really good seats were too expensive for me then I don't see any reason that I wouldn't.

[letuswaltzforthedead]

I would, there's nothing wrong with dating someone you're not actually attracted to. personally, I find the actual probability of that happening to be unlikely though.

[TheUniqueOne96]

If they were okay with that specific agreement (like I'd make that specific agreement with them), then yeah, but I do have some T&Cs and I wouldn't be willing to do just anything.

[Curiosity2006]

Isn't that Gold-digging?

[coachTanthony]

Yeah and?

[Curiosity2006]

Isn't that like a bad thing or?
or am I just mistaken? Some girls "date" men who are 25+ years older than them just for the money and social status. Dating for this sole purpose is not love. It's love for "green" so to speak. While they can be appreciated As The Cherry On The Pie, it should never be deemed as The Pie itself, you, a man's character and love for Who they are not What they have.

[coachTanthony]

Yes according to society and most men it's a bad thing doesn't mean it doesn't happen or people agree on it.

[Curiosity2006]

Well true, it happens all the time. Men should be smart enough though, to distinguish between genuine romantic love and love for what's in their wallets.

[coachTanthony]

Well that is a skill most men need to learn. Problem is most men just lump every woman in that category and never find the person for them out of fear someone is after their 15.00 bucks an hour wage. You see no matter how much a man makes many men think the woman is after it and it's just simply not true.

[Ssarah016]

No! Money sure makes things easier. But I personally need chemistry, a spark! That’s what it’s all about! Moneys great but money doesn’t buy happiness. True genuine love and happiness. (: good luck.

[SolitarySolace]

Nah, I don’t find those things to be important. Besides it’s more fulfilling to earn your own money as opposed to attempting to get it through manipulating someone else and getting away with it because you have tits and a vagina

[ChiTown33]

Status means nothing to me. And money means nothing if you have no values. So no.

[Haha456]

yes but the chances of that progressing to marriage is slim. There are certain things that money or status cannot buy. You can't buy love.

[Telekinetic-Potato]

Not unless I was planning on just using them. Which I really hope I never end up in a situation where that's my best/only move.

[legalboxers]

Why? I dont want the fame or fortune. Now if I can end up on 90 day fiancee. :)

[msc545]

No way. Women do that a lot. Men really don't very much.
