She's out of my league. Maybe I need a pep talk?

I met this girl at a concert last week. I got her number and we had a date tonight. She was wearing her running clothes when we met. She was pretty but no make up. When we met tonight she was a knock out, prettier than before. She is educated, financially stable (actually wealthy by my standards), probably 15 years younger than me. We didn't exchange ages yet. I look a lot younger than I am and I guess it's possible that she does too. She has two younger kids, which is great. She is a pretty dedicate runner. I run and exercise too.

 

So I am a pretty attractive, divorced, middle aged math teacher. I'm pretty smart and stable but I am pretty sure she makes more money than me but also probably gets alimony and definitely got some money in her divorce.

 

She also is really nice. Didn't brag at all about her money. She seems pretty sweet too. We had drinks then went for a ride on my motorcycle.

 

I'm trying to take a laid back approach. I usually overthink things. I'm afraid that when she finds out more about me, like how much money I make and how much I pay in family support, that she won't be interested. She doesn't seem to be shallow. She seemed kind of nervous on the date.

 

I guess I should just take it easy and have fun? We kind of have plans to see each other again on Monday.

You are thinking too far ahead. Just relax you don't need to show your cards yet if anything ask her a lot of questions and get to know her better. In no way shape or form disclose any financial information unless it is absolutely needed. You only went out once have fun with her and see where it goes... Enjoy!

Don't worry about the money. You are jumping to allllll kinds of conclusions! For example - I make good money and actually had to pay my ex-h alimony! I have date guys who had to pay child/spousal support and as long as they can support themselves and make good financial decisions, I couldn't care less. Women who are financially stable are not looking for someone to take care of us financially. Just emotionally :) Good luck!

Thank you so much. I do make a decent living and I've been teaching at the same job for 17 years.

 

I'm going to just roll with it for now and see where it goes. If we are both having fun then I guess we'll both continue, right?
