The men I meet seem to respect my professional job - I work out, I'm polished and I try to present nicely. I find a range of men and usually they are men who have it together on most levels or at least striving to be. They seem to want to pay and also very nice in other ways: courtesy etc. Remember I am from an over 50 demographic in most cases. It's part of the upbringing. |
You sound like a busy girl! |

Thought I read on another post you had a BF |

It is interesting, I was just on the phone with one of my friends who had the reversal of fortune and loss of hubby I was referring to earlier.
She said it was about control as well. Hmmm....
Anyway, she is dating a guy who came in to paint their house as a make-ready to put it on the market. Makes less money, 5 years younger but she said the treatment of her is night and day. He listens, acts like she is cherished and makes her feel alive and sexy (when she feels overweight, ugly and frumpy per the ex). But he makes WAY less money, rents, no health insurance, infrequent jobs. Does it matter? Not to her, she says she is broke now too! But he follows his passion and loves what he does as an artistic outlet and his confidence is sexy and catching.
Ha, so she says true love and I look forward to seeing them together for dinner this weekend! Sizzle!!! |

My advice.. always be with a man who allows you to grow. That covers it all pretty much... means he'd respect your individuality that your are on a journey through this life. He listens and values your input.
Many times when we judge a man on his earning potential..we give him power over our lives...and then a woman's inner spirit can die because it is no longer a priority..you've sold out...no matter how much $$$ he gives you to spend.
So, I say..let's take the $$ out of it..be with a man you can discuss things with..have an interesting conversation with..a man you respect for how he treats other people in all matters..a man who takes care of you..but doesn't control you. |
