Anonymous(45 Plus)1 yI have to agree w noemiii. A majority of men don’t care much about that. But there’s a reason. Women don’t provide or take care of men really whether it’s financial or physically. So we don’t look at those things. A lot of times her money doesn’t benefit us. Women usually don’t share their resources w men the way men do w women. A lot of women still want to be equal to men, make the same money but refuse to pay for dates or things like that. A lot of women still want a man that makes as much as her or more, they usually never go down on the financial ladder. A lot of them won’t take on the bread winner part of the relationship even if she’s making way more than him. On the other hand men will. We’ll date a girl working at McDonald’s. So long as she descent looking at the least, all the way up to gorgeous. She’s not a pain in the ass. She doesn’t start arguing just for the hell of it. She wants a family, takes care of the house. She brings peace to his life. A lot of men don’t want women w all these piercings, colored hair, bullnose rings, excessive tattoos, because things like that send up red flags. Sure there are some exceptions, some men like that but not a lot. As men the first thing we notice is looks. That’s what catches his attention to even want to pursue you. If you don’t have those looks he’s not even going to look your way. So even if you’re a doctor, he’s not going to be impressed to the point that he wants to meet you if you don’t have the looks also. Women tend to look at that. I think that’s sort of nature. She wants to know can he support a family. There other women who are just gold diggers who look at what kind of job he has.

1 yI do, generally; I find them more interesting as people, but everything is a question of degree.
It really depends on how much effort she puts into the relationship and whether she's secure in herself, or if her achievement creates a feeling of competition in the relationship.
I am an extremely high achieving man. I've found that many high achieving women feel the need to push themselves in order to feel like an equal in their relationships. It's like the achievement comes from feeling like they weren't good enough earlier in life (I know that a similar kind of feeling pushed me to do the things I have). I don't know if there's something that I'm still doing that cultivates that energy, but I don't like being around it.
I want my relationship to be a source of peace and support. I don't want the woman I'm dating to feel like she's in competition with me. I wouldn't want that in general, but I especially don't want it because someone comparing themselves to my level of achievement is a ridiculously high metric for a lot of people.
If my girlfriend isn't naturally the kind of the person who does the things I do; her pushing herself to be that person isn't going to result in a peaceful relationship.

Anonymous(25-29)1 yIf a guy doesn't like a successful girl, you shouldn't be with him. It's like killing your vibe so you can't be great. Who is he to kill your vibe which can create wonders? There's a guy who didn't wanted to see me successful hence, he started playing with my emotions, my life to make me provoked. I blocked him out of my life and he never gets another chance to be with me. I don't wanna stay with an unsupportive guy who kills my vibe. I will stay with a great guy who wants to be great and wants to see me great too. No ego should be there for him on me and definitely no bad temper to make me down

Opinion Owner1 yThere are some girls who will listen to all that these guys says and kills their own vibe. Don't know when he loses interest, when he finds another attractive girl that he wanna go with. He will definitely cheat on this girl who he got control into after he gets bored of her and will put her down before other successful girls. It's a never ending toxic cycle she chooses to stay in which can destroy her self respect, life and she gets controlled and can't question his behaviour since she will be dependent on him. Such guys should be dumped and not accepted

1 yI think of a relationship the same way I think of a grocery budget.
If you spend all your money on cheese, you won't have too much for lettuce left over. If you spend too much on lettuce, you won't have too much for cheese.
No girl will have everything you want, and you don't have everything a girl wants. So you have to choose what you will budget your time, energy and values into.

1 yWhy in the ever living fuck or how did you women get it in your heads that men are going to give a shit about your financial-making ability when we know you won't gibs any of it... none of it...
It seems to me that feminism has taught you girls that men want what women want and you're all taking a big "L" by taking that feminist advice.
I think an extremely gay male or a trans female is in charge of the feminist movement in the last 10 years. They're leading women to be doing what men do to get women in a very gay and extravagant way.
Basically, they're democrats. A bunch of fags.
10 Reply1.2K opinions shared on Dating topic. In general most men don't really look at women like that. What you're asking is more of a female perspective that women have about men, and you're wondering if men think the same way. Not really.
Men care more about the woman as a person, how she makes him feel, if she's going to be good for his life or not. Men do care if she's smart and can do things, but not with the same superficial expectations that women have concerning men. Men care if a woman can drive, if she works and is smart with her job, has life skills, if she has a few talents and even something new she can show him, etc. Most men aren't looking for a woman with six figures, master's degree, is busy doing a whole bunch of things, or drives a Bugotti. Those aren't requirements for a man to like a woman, that's more of a female perspective in a woman liking a man.

1 ySuccessful as opposed to what? Non-academic? Low achievers? . Now sure what would be commonly regarded as successful , is it just monetary? Financially? Or does being a good human count? . couldn’t success also be about opportunities?
I’ve never really considered that I measured how successful a woman was before deciding to date her or stay in a relationship with her.
I do and would always favor a woman that has made her own life , who is more independent that not , who is self motivated and passionate about being a good person but who is also humble and grounded.
Should these qualities also make them successful then it’s well deserved and I would be additionally proud of them , but I don’t see it as a pre-requisite or necessary. I am not really a material person10 Reply
1 yMost guys don't care about how successful women are or if they have anything going on. They don't like you for what you have, they like you for who you are and yes even your looks, they mater for both. There is no purpouse for the success of a woman in a mans life as most of them know they will always be the one to be the financial main partner.
A man only cares about mostly one thing, and thats the ability of her having children, it doesn't mater if she has 6 Harvard degrees or is the owner of a multi trillion dollar company. He still has to make more, for her to find him as a suitable partner.
In short its not that they don't like you if you are successful or have something going on, men don't care.

1 ySuccessful girls, yes. “Have a lot going on”, that is difficult.
Most people want a partner who is around so, they can grow a tighter bond / feel sense of closeness / know that their partner will love them & never leave… Having a lot going on can ruin intimacy and closeness / sometimes feel like an inconvenience even though the partner is happy for their success. I know a male who was busy in a relationship and the female didn’t like that so, they compromised to a solution that benefitted the family dynamic so, I see this the same way. It doesn’t matter gender, this is a universal feeling.

1 yThere are certain jobs that are more attractive than others to me when it comes to women. There are more feminine jobs than others.
I also prefer that she's not so busy where she has very little time to spend in the relationship. My main love language is quality time, so the more time a girl can give me, the happier I am.
So I'll be honest and say I'm not as attracted to "boss girls" or girls that focus more on work rather than family and relationships. It's great to have passions, but not great to neglect loved ones.00 Reply From my experience, they could care less. As long as you’re attractive they wouldn’t care if you worked at Burger King and lived with your parents.
102 ReplyOh I am extremely particular.. I would rather she worked at Wendy's!!!
2.3K opinions shared on Dating topic. For me, she needs to be attractive, have good morals, no kids from her past, no contact with any ex, have time for me, have compatible long term life goals, initiate affection (I am totally fine with physically clingy girls too), and it would be great if she was into gaming too.
I don't care about her job as long as it isn't something I disagree with on moral grounds and it doesn't require her to travel and spend days away from home. In my opinion, a woman that has the qualities I listed and only works part time minimum wage is much more appealing than one making $100k per year that is lacking some of those qualities.

Anonymous(30-35)1 yWell there is many ways to be successful. I think the most important thing of either a man or woman is where their hearts are. If someone is a bad person. They’re a bad person period. All the bad people get very triggered with me that’s for sure and project who they are.
Absolutely being successful is a good thing. So long as it’s accomplished morally, legally, and ethically. Is being a amazing mother and wife a accomplishment? Absolutely. But unfortunately a percentage of ‘traditional’ women aren’t traditional they’re looking for a free ride in life.
But yes…

1 yFrom my experience? Yes.
The key as the woman is not to suffer losers who want a free ride.
Did that once and happy I dumped him back in his home country of America.
Truly awesome people appreciate when a woman is driven and interested, and self-posessed.

1 yWhat is "successful" here? Her job? I don't care about her job. I've dated clerks and heiresses. I have my own money I don't need hers, and money won't buy class or my tolerance for not having any. If she's a keeper she's a keeper. As long as she spends less than she makes that's all I care about her job.
"A lot going on" could be interpreted a number of different ways, so I'm afraid I can't answer that part.

@Juxtapose married folks often merge their financials (big mistake, but whatever) so it’s not true that guys don’t see a penny of a woman’s income. Many women are even asked for alimony etc in a divorce bc of claims to shared assets during the marriage…
I also think the respect factor is off by a lot. Gold diggers will hang their respect for others based on $$$$. Normal women don’t do this. It’s nasty. But for some reason guys continually fall for the gold diggers, so 🤷🏻♀️🤷🏻♀️🤷🏻♀️. - 1 y
I can almost guarantee that in the majority of relationships where the woman earns more, she keeps her money separate from him.
That's because most people are gold diggers. If a lot of men were given the chance they would be gold diggers too. People are shitty and it is rare to find someone who is not focused on materialism. Normal people are materialistic, virtuous people are the exception.
Socially successful, definitely. Men who pretend otherwise are coping. Queen Beeing is dead sexy.
Intellectually or artistically successful, is almost always a plus but how much will depend on how into those things the guy is.
Financial success will help with a certain kind of guy who is often insecure about being used, but it will have little visceral value for most men.00 ReplySuccessful women are awesome, its the arrogant ones that hold it against the man that are garbage. The “ i am better then you, because i have a phd and make more money then you” type women. If you’re a successful woman then that’s awesome. However don’t make it a selling point to get a date, its not a bad thing, its just that we dont care.. ok you make 6 figures and you got a phd but can be a wife? Can you humble yourself to let your man pay? Can you play number 2 and not be the leader?

1 yNo, we generally don't care about that. How many dudes are lining up to date Oprah? Women who are successful in their careers tend to masculine because success requires masculine traits like being competitive, aggressive, and taking risks. Men who are masculine don't want masculine women; the only guys who want that are the beta male soyboys who women don't want.

She cares for her parents, their home two girls one unruly at 25 the other an angel 19 or already hit 20. And babysits a granddaughter and a grandson from her two boys. Plus she is almost able to help a friend out 90% of the time between noon and 10pm as long as it doesn't take over half, three quarters of an hour. I think she's an angel.

And also men don't like women to be focused on money because if she makes more than him she will discard the man as if he needs nothing and even if she did accept him, he won't see a single penny of that money.
