For a lot of men, they put pride in things that give them status like achievements, objects, etc. I feel like Andrew Tate saying that, but it's true, lmao.
Women can be like that about different stuff than men do generally speaking, but I feel like for women it's primarily the actually ACT of having money as insurance - it is not as much of a status thing. I could be wrong, but I am basing that off of relationships I have heard about or even seen like in my own mother's marriage.
You know how since you were young, there was pressure to look good all the time? Like as a girl you had to be pretty and that's the price you have to pay to be treated normally? That's how guys are taught about money. They have that pressure that their value depends on how much they can provide.
Some of the blue users accuse us of being obsessed with money, lol. I think wanting to be comfortable financially is fine but I wouldn’t see the need to brag about. I haven’t known very many men to be this way though.
We are "obsessed" with it because money is something that matters to women, that's why. However, when it becomes inconvienent for women, suddenly men become selfish for pursuing it. I think you need to re-phrase your question and ask why money is such an obsession for most women. I am sure many gals will say money doesn't matter, yet it still does.
because men still have the "provider role". and in todays society, the single most important means of "providing" is income. so the more income you can generate, the more of a provider you are. and the more women will want you. that's a fact. women don't like money. but they do like men that can provide and income is a way of doing that.
ok. i thought we were talking about general things and not about you. i'm not interested in a conversation about your relationship with your husband xD so cya.
I'm just saying that I know what a provider means and obviously a lot of people don't since they think it's only financial even tho there are more things they need to provide like mental and emotional support
Just kidding. I've been without disposable income for most of my adult life, but if I did aquire a greater source of income I wouldn't brag about it. I would just appreciate it.
It's mandatory to have money if you want to have a good woman these days. I am not obsessed with money. Just make enough to pay my bills and save 10% for retirement.
I will not brag about money or buy things to just show off.
You answered it in your last sentence. Some men value money like it's the most valuable thing in life. Trying to figure out things like why do they think this way isn't worth your time in my humble opinion. Since every person is different you'd have to ask them why they think this way. You might be surprised by some answers and have better understanding for them. This goes for anything else we don't understand about others feelings or opinions.
First you get the money, then you get the power, then you get the women… It’s a demonstration of value, and girls reinforce the trope. You see a guy with a girl that’s out of his league you think he must be well-off. If he’s obviously a bum you think he must be well-hung.
it’s not the most valuable thing in life but men are judged much more critically on having money when it comes to dating. Even if it doesn’t impress you personally, the majority of women will clown on guys that are broke. haven’t you heard the tlc song scrubs? 😂
Simple because there is no such thing as a girl who wants a guy who has no money, money allows us to do the things we want to do, buy the things we want, be who we want to be. Money has always been kind to me, can't say the same for people. Money is what runs the world and puts food on the table and clothes on our bodies and a roof over our heads.
I think you're confusing obsession, with him just trying to impress you. Women are known to value a man's resources, so lots of men showcase said resources. It's really as simple as that. We all love money because money equals freedom.

From where I'm standing, it's all women!! How many men do you know of that are golddiggers? In the meantime, nearly every piece of pussy on the planet will sell her soul for a buck and, if her man doesn't have a lot of money to keep her happy, she'll drop him him in a heartbeat and hook up with some guy that does!!

I've never felt pressured to look pretty

in general people are obsessed with money who don't have money.
Very true

Providing is something different to me then just financial
are you representative of all women?
Nah but I do have a provider husband so i know how that goes. a lot of other women don't

I'm just saying that I know what a provider means and obviously a lot of people don't since they think it's only financial even tho there are more things they need to provide like mental and emotional support
emotional and mental support neither pays rent nor food.
Keeps your brain healthy tho which is essential to having good health
ever heard of maslow's hierarchy of needs?
Because money good!

The mistakingly believe that money buys everything. You can't buy the most valuable simple things like happiness or wisdom.
Happiness and wisdom are extremely valuable
Selective OCD.
Itsnlike asking why some religious people are so religious. Hyperfixation on something given value in youth

A lot of problems can be solved with enough money like that.
Car broke down? Dog needs surgery? House requires renovation? US healthcare? Need a place to store a boat? Need a website? Etc.
Moreover money means more status and women are on average attracted to status.
I'm not. If i have it then I do, if not i don't. Do I wish my debt was paid off? Of course, so does ev1 else.

Yes I've heard that song but I think most woman don't actually care that much
i think, as always, ur conflating how you personally feel with what women in general are actually like.
I don't know many women like this besides online
Some men live in this tiny bubble where nothing can happen without money, and of course it is not even remotely true.
Simple because there is no such thing as a girl who wants a guy who has no money, money allows us to do the things we want to do, buy the things we want, be who we want to be.

if women had to live life as a man, most would commit suicide like Norah Vincent did
I wouldn't like being a man for reasons other than money. y'all just can't have babies and that would suck
