Azincourt Posted June 28, 2020 Posted June 28, 2020 There are women who date men for what they own, yeah and? A friend of mine went from making only 500,000 euros a year to making 5 million euros a year. Suddenly, the woman he had been pinning for when he was only making half a million euros a year notices him, decides she wants him, and now she's dating him. What does it matter what one woman or one man want when there's millions who care about the person they are dating, not their wallets?
Art_Critic Posted June 28, 2020 Posted June 28, 2020 Home ownership, setting ones roots is what the OP was asking about, not how many Euros they have in the bank...Did he own a house before the girl he pinned for opened her eyes?
Azincourt Posted June 28, 2020 Posted June 28, 2020 (edited) No, he was sharing a house with a friend at the age of 18. She was living with mom and dad. Now he owns a 2.5 million euros Mansion. She's already talking about having babies at the age of 18. Edited June 28, 2020 by Azincourt 1

Yes, this is a worthy discussion topic ... The problem is, people get hung on on topics like this and immediately start making assumptions about "what women want" and what a man "has to do" to "get" a woman and all of that. And in those discussions, all kinds of over-generalizations emerge. So I was assuming at bottom this was a "what does to it take to be a man who attracts women?" discussion. Now I get your point that this topic can be discussed without going where I thought it was going. The good folk of LS seem, in general, to be quite an intelligent lot. It's safe to assume that most here will not put the cart before the horse.
Phallacy Posted July 6, 2020 Posted July 6, 2020 Ya know, this thread really struck a chord with me. After my divorce, I got an apartment. Started dating. Lots of dates.More then enough sex.I was 42 at the time. But...no girlfriends. Was I bad at sex? Lol They wanted to be casual but nothing serious. Hey, what’s the problem? A few gals were bold enough to ask where my money was going. After all, I owned a Vette and have an MBA. Why the apartment? Well, eventually I repaired my credit, bought a home and remodeled it. Ya know what the new question is? How long have I lived here (I.e. how much equity do I have?) Here’s the thing. I can count on one hand how many female home owners I’ve met. And they were either widows with life insurance or receiving alimony. So yeah, I’m sensitive to questions about Home ownership now. It’s quite revealing how attentive my dates have become when they hear the word...mortgage...

I don't know, if you bring up your house isn't there supposed to be some sort of follow-up question to keep the conversation going? I've asked about a million people "So how long have you lived in [my town]?" out of politeness because it's a nice neutral question.
elaine567 Posted July 6, 2020 Posted July 6, 2020 It really depends on the circles you move in. Some people can hardly afford rent, live in shared accommodation and will continue to rent as they do not have enough money to buy. Some people will get on the property market asap with family help or because they earn a lot or because they are just rich, and wouldn't dream of ever renting. A woman who has her own home often expects a man to be a property owner. It is not that she is specifically looking for "a man with his own house", she is just not interested in any man who is renting or sharing or homeless, unless she is one of these women who likes a "project"... It is all about levels and compatibility. If she is a home owner and he is messing about in shared apartments/rooms, what they have in common is probably not much... "Potential" is important too especially when looking at younger men, a man with real future potential is valued, whether atm he lives in his own home or shares with room mates... I also think many women like a man who will eventually move with her into THEIR own home as opposed to a man who owns his own home and is never going to move. Of course that all depends on the financial status of the woman, some women are poor and so are just looking for a man to put a roof over her head...
Phallacy Posted July 6, 2020 Posted July 6, 2020 Asking how long I’ve lived in the city (insert city name) is innocent enough but that is rarely the case. It’s always how long I’ve lived at the house. I have a few buds that had similar experiences and I always ask them if the gals saw there apartments. Every time was a yes. Guys gets lucky but no GF. I definitely am turned off to cohabiting now and will continue having fun. Let ‘em drool...
