Why is it difficult for successful women to find a relationship and love?

[ShadezMcgee]

Because when someone is successful there is a line to how much success they have achieved and still desire to reach. The thought that comes up for men when they see successful women is that she will be very career focused and Type A personality type that will come home to them, and to go with that, the other factor is that the success the woman has will have to be mirrored or better by him because if it isn't, she will not be happy.

Women don't want to feel like they are settling for or are with a loser. So they want the best man that is going to compliment their lifestyle, goals and desires.

Many men derive a big part of their satisfaction in a relationship by knowing that they are able to provide and care for their partner. When a woman doesn't need a man for money or security, some guys aren't confident that the rest of what they offer will be enough for the woman, and becoming involved with a somewhat needy woman is far less challenging.

[jennifer_bloom]

When you have money but not character or health, your man might be with you for the wrong reasons. I know women that divorced men who did not love them and just used them for their stable career, house keeping skills, and sexy bodies.

[chrissykerdock]

men want blowjobs someone humble to get on their knees for them... a successufl woman isn't about to get on her knees for a man.

[Lliam]

Who says that successful women don't love giving BJs and having sex? What does one thing have to do with the other?

[BoopBoopBeep]

I've had some "pretty up the chain" women service me orally over the years. I'd say your assumption is flawed.

[DreamLife7]

Exactly

[chrissykerdock]

@DreamLife7 remember i give blowjobs i don't get blowjobs so i really wouldn't know

[Miristheiss]

For the ones that it is difficult for... they spent their prime, youthful, fertile years pursuing work and not family/love. To be successful they probably have a lot of masculine, non-agreeable, pushy, bossy, take charge traits. The opposite of feminine and a turn off. They are too set in their ways by the time they decide to look for love that it is difficult to blend/mesh with someone else. If they make money... they only want a man who has even more money than her so she self eliminates millions of potential guys. If she was a secretary who make 40,000 she'd be thrilled with a guy making 70,000 (they'd make 110,000 together). But if she makes 120,000 suddenly this 70,000 a year guy is not "good enough" for her.

[Pegases]

From what I've seen, women with money often become like those men that have nothing else to offer outside money. Arrogant, boring, and entitled. Unfortunately their money becomes their identity. Next, in our society we tell women that they are perfect just as they are. And while that true to an extent, it's created an abundance of women with God complexes that feel they can do no wrong. So they believe they deserve quality men, when often they are average themselves.

[Giddyup]

I do not find this to be the case at all. If your a successful woman, the "world is your oyster" as they say.

The complications of such can be that maybe she spends more time than is necessary on her career than her relationships. So it would be important to find that balance. And not all men can handle a strong woman, but they are out there.

[Kaffee]

Sorry to tell you that but thats some big delusions. This can't handel a strong women is the biggest fake thing told to modern women. Reality is man dont care about your job your degree your mony at all its compleatly worthless to a man. Second when you are a successful women you also will only date a guy that makes more then you thats a fake so you are makret limited in guys that you woud date. A guy in that region already has all the money he woud need why the hell woud somebody like that date a dominate career driven women that doesn't fit his own desiers at all. Thats the problem its allways about what women want never was there partner coud want. Just accept it that realy high earning man dont want carrer women not becouse they can't handel strong women thats just bs no becouse they also have there own values and goles in how they want there relation ships to be

[BoopBoopBeep]

How are we defining successful? Only corporate world sense? Because personally I don't really consider someone's job much of a success in and of itself. You could be a successful baker. You could be a successful server. You could be a successful animal rescue administrator. Every woman I've been with for 30 years has been successful. I don't pick up people at the soup kitchen.

[Nifrayu]

Because they usually aren't willing to date unsuccessful men. And successful men are willing to date unsuccessful women.

In other words the successful woman who are struggling to find meaningful relationships most likely are restricting their own dating pool to an extreme degree. They don't leave themselves many options.

[Anonymous]

Honestly because most of those women do not really want a relationship. or more accurately they ONLY want it on THIER terms. Relationships by thier very definition are give and take and require compromise. So women have to learn that. And some would simply rather remain single, and that's ok.

[Phoenix98]

Because no amount of money can buy them a good personality or heart. That and they're to busy trying to be more like men and less like women and are just obsessed with their career convinced that it's what going to give them happiness and it's usually only when it's to late that they realize they were wrong that coupled with high standards that at the very minim have to be at their level and at their highest include men so far above them they'd never be considered in the first place.

[DarkWinterNights]

Because their focus is on their career and their standards are even higher than the average woman, including financial. Which results in them competing for an extremely small percentage of men, who have a disproportionate amount of women interested in them.

[Hispanic-Cool-Guy]

Has nothing to do with how successful they are or aren't.

It's about being putting effort and being the best person you can be to attract the right man in her life.

Plenty of women do it around the world.

[Kaffee]

Yes but most other women around there world are actily women and not man 2.0 thinking becomeing masculin will get them a relationship with a 1% man becouse they make so much money

[BourbonAndBacon]

Being successful is not a relationship skill and has nothing to do with love.

[AnusNdaPainus]

Because they didn’t spend their time on developing relationship skills

and instead focused on a career

Another of the many lies of feminism “You can just have a family and relationship later in life” but women’s options only decrease as they age

[DARKCLOUD1945X]

I personally think a lot of men are afraid of successful women because it put them on par with them.

[RedInnocent68]

Because guys are easily intimidated and would rather go for mindless arm candy than a girl who’s their equal or better.

[tempton]

It's hard to find motivated women. I have an ASD with an iq of 138 and its damn near impossible to find anyone who relates to me. Its just easier to have arm candy at least for now until I find a intelligent girl who likes me for who I am.

[RedInnocent68]

It’s certainly hard to find already successful, motivated women. Being super smart yourself doesn’t help, but the sapiosexual girls are out there. Although I venture to guess the ASD doesn’t help in terms of missing cues when they do take an interest?

[Kaffee]

Thats realy shallow take thats upsolutly not true. What a man values is different then what a women values thats true but what your take shows you dont even have a clue about the aver guy you basicly only see the 1% in your lens and yes the top 1% have 99% of the joys they dont care about you they know they can get what they want when ever they want. Thats just not the aver guys world at all. If you want a real love relation ship go with a 9/5 guy we all know that will never happen becouse you are as shallow as your claim.

[RedInnocent68]

Really? Because the question is why 1% girls have relationship problems. They either need a so-called 1% guy who smart enough to engage them and isn’t intimidated by them or a complacent guy like the pool boy trope. My point is that 1% guys have the same problem and often default to the bimbo trope instead of 1% girls who challenge them. We’re talking about ambition, career, and smarts, not just looks. Average guys have enough trouble approaching average girls, and genuine power couples are few and far between. Take Amal and George Clooney for example…

[LaFemmeFatale_1]

I don’t think it is

[dynamicyandere]

Yeah. I believe the key is to maintain one’s femininity.

It’s easy to pursue success and lose touch with one’s femininity.

But if someone is successful yet can simultaneously exude their feminity and feminine energy when they’re around their suitors, they shouldn’t have any issues.

[exitseven]

They can be obsessed with their careers and that can be very off putting

[DummyThiccFeraligatr]

Sometimes they just have crappy luck. But the majority are single, because they're too picky or don't prioritize finding love.

[Anonymous]

Many of them want a guy that makes more money then them. It's their choice, but I would say they bring the difficulty on to themselves by their Hypergamous Nature. The guys that make more then they do have plenty of women to choose from.

If they really want the men that their seeking then they will have to share them, or find a guy that makes less then they do.

[JesseP1nk]

Because women date up not down. Meaning women who are successful want men who are as successful as them or even more.

[Unit1]

Women were not taught how to get a boyfriend.

[DreamLife7]

Women are taught to marry rich not bums or boyfriend

[Unit1]

@DreamLife7 Do they do that? My parents passed their poverty onto me, which I dig myself out of on my own.

[WhiteBoyChill]

Because men don’t actually care about a woman’s money or career. They care about her pair bonding ability
