The problem is that she would have said yes.. then he would have a bigger problem than her asking him how much money he makes.

 

I fail to see the problem.

 

I look at it this way, it's BJ's until she figures out i'm poor or her Visa runs out. :)

It's a Russian thing. They can blurt things bluntly without tact. Not the best diplomats, as someone said.

 

I've dated Russian women. I used to think American women were the most spoiled golddiggers in the world. Russian women can easily top them.

The more I hear stories like this, the number I feel toward women.

 

Why give them my heart when money gets me farther with them.

 

lol like you have a heart to give you useless sack of ****? :laugh:

So long as you have the experience to know that the guys in the most expensive clothes aren't always the rich ones, you'll be fine. :)

 

Better that than a millionaire that looks like a bum. Eeek.

Why did she need her ex to send her money if she supposedly makes so much herself?

Green card anyone? After all your criticisms of online dating profiles, that you'd consider this one kind of surprises me considering the two main red flags and that's:

  1. Income question.
  2. Desire to move to the States.

 

that would be my hunch as well. and after 2 (removal of conditions - can get unconditional 10 year green card) or 3 years of marriage (can apply for citizenship) she's probably gonna serve him the divorce papers.

 

I would tread carefully with this one. The income question on the first date is just too much of a red flag.

 

 

 

The fact of life remains that men are born givers while women are born takers.

 

born providers and born nurturers would be more accurate. both roles are justified, so no need to be bitter about it.

 

 

 

If I want to take a girlfriend on a weekend to Paris or Dublin (I'm in the UK, so it's not a totally crazy idea, but it's more than just dinner-and-a-movie) and she says "but I can't afford that" then there's potential for embarrassment, awkwardness etc.

 

There is no such thing as "I can't afford that" anymore since Ryanair. :D

Say you, woman.

 

In the grand scheme of things, apparently men are just workhorses whose sole purpose is to ensure the survival of women and children.

 

I think men have every right to be bitter about that.

 

And you would feel fine with staying at home while your wife brings the money home? You would not start complaining that the evil feminazis are trying to emasculate men?

I will do whatever is best for the relationship. I simply dont want to be judged at all by my earning capability. I dont care if a woman is penniless. If I feel attracted to her and feel that her personality is compatible with mine, I will help her to be in a better financial situation and I will share what I have if I have more. So all I want is the same genuine love.

Women in traditional societies can be more gold digging than American women. But the difference is that they also have something to give back. They usually expect to meet their own traditional reponsibilites. On the other hand, American women dont even know how to cook.

I have a big heart. Im just disappointed that women apparently value money more than genuine love.
