Without reading the source material, let's say that there IS a positive correlation between the perceived attractiveness of a woman and the economic/social status of her significant other as you say. Unfortunately, correlation isn't enough to prove causation,

So long as wealth is considered a "good", for rational individuals, there IS a causal relationship to some degree.

Incognito's anecdotal evidence doesn't excuse blanket statements about intent.

His "blanket statement" was a 3 word attempt at being witty. Loosen up the tie, bullet bill.

nitpicking? Don't be a wanker... if someone said [insert your race or gender here] is [insert something fucked here]. You wouldn't be happy about it... just because it happened to you doesn't make it so... think about what you say we have female posters and mods here.... the ban stick will start falling for this just as fast as for racial slurs...

Except the two aren't comparable at all, and this instance isn't offensive to anyone with a wrist capable of holding up the weight of their own hand.

If anyone is interested in this female's point of view, it doesn't bother me. I can see the humour and the comments made me chuckle.

I mean, they were funny.

That’s just my take on it. If anything, those type of comments just make me want to retort with some witty come-back, all in good fun of course!

But really, I don’t know of any women who have money on their list of criteria for potential partners.
The size of your dick thing however… well, that’s a different story.

HA!

 

[gollumsluvslave]

Although it relates to being on smack, a quote from Trainspotting sums up the precarious balance of normal life perfectly IMO

Got no money: can't get pished. Got money: drinking too much. Can't get a bird: no chance of a ride. Got a bird: too much hassle. You have to worry about bills, about food, about some football team that never fucking wins, about human relationships and all the things that really don't matter when you've got a sincere and truthful junk habit.

:lol :lol :lol

Of course when you have a junk habit you have to worry about babies crawling along the ceiling... :lol

 

[Polari]

Provide some factual evidence to back up this broad claim, or you're taking a break for misogyny.

*cough*

 

[Scrow]

because it's something you'd never admit to, but it's there... on the list in invisible ink.

Well, the guys with the little dicks gotta have something going for them



Marilyn Monroe once said:
"Don't you know that a man being rich is like a girl being pretty. You don't marry a girl just because she is pretty, but my goodness, doesn't it help?"

 

[Polari]

You're mean.

What about the girls with no titties? Do they have to be rich too?

 

[Alyssa Hu$tle]

I'm not trying to be mean honey, it is all said in jest and no harm is intended, you don’t think I am serious do you?

But I’m sure all the boys in this forum would agree that all boobs, are beautiful.

Plus, if we don’t like the size, we can always get them done.

It’s the boys who are screwed.

Not man-boobs. Funny how that works. Although I was talking about women with practically no breasts whatsoever.

Plus, if we don’t like the size, we can always get them done.

It’s the boys who are screwed.

Not true, I received a friendly email today informing me that for $70 one could buy pills that would, and I quote, "make your penis smash through walls". So there.

Too funny.

On a serious note to Radiuhm, how old is this lovely lass? Around the same as you? I bet she is in exactly the same situation as you and certainly wouldn’t mind doing things that don’t cost money. There’s lots of places to go and things to do that are free - take her for a picnic or to the beech (depending where you live) or go get some information about what’s on in your city that’s free… there’s usually lots of stuff if you look into it. Here in Melbourne we have lots of exhibitions and festivals and things at different times of the year. Get creative.

And you don’t have to buy her stuff. Chicks really dig it when you make them stuff, like a card or something. It sounds way lame, but trust me, they dig it.

 

[EmSeta]

I'd say there are a lot of golddigging women. But it depends on where you're looking. Just go to some of the posh bars in larger cities, and chances are most of the women will be looking for someone with more money than wit. These women seek comfort, and find it in a financially providing man.

Though it's far from most women. Most women have enough sense not to be blinded by pure monetary recources. Men's wallets are like women's plastic tits; it they're too large, a lot of the members of the opposite sex won't be able to see through them.

yeah, but melbourne rocks. poor old sydney is just the try hard new york of australia, whereas melbourne is its own thing. but that's a discussion for another thread, "When City Fanboys Attack!"

 

[robertsan21]

hey man you got it all laid or for you, she works, you dont!

so she got money you dont, its simple, i am sure she doesnt mind paying for you!

user her.

a girl will do anything to be with you if she truly likes you, so if that means that she has to spend her money on you, she will!

 

[Polari]

Yeah, I used to live in Melbourne (Camberwell) and loved it. The Moomba festival in particular is great.

 

[djtiesto]

It seems to me that more girls are interested in guys with plans for the future (or providing financial security when they're older) than just flat out wealth. So, it's good that you're taking interest in finding a job... even if it's cashier work at the local supermarket, and even if you're making 6 bucks an hour, it still goes to show you're a bit motivated. If I'm doing a whole day of dating with my girlfriend, sometimes I'll have her pay for half and me pay for half. Like, I'll pay for the dinner, she pay for the movie. But, if there's a specific place that *I* really want to go (like into the city to see Armin spin, or to a fancy Indian restaurant), I'll pay.

 

[D-X]

i wouldn't recommend splurging on her unless she's delivering the goods on a consistent basis.

Oh, you meant splurging money. My mistake.

 

[Outcast2004]

Shoot I have a job and cooking a nice meal and renting a movie is my idea for the perfect date... you get a good chance to enjoy each other's company and like Dragona said I am sure that she will treat you out someday so don't worry too much about it if you two really have something going on then it will be no problem...for now...

Thats about as perfect as it can get for a date.

Like Blackace, cooking a nice meal and just relaxing, watching a movie is great.. You don't need to spend money to enjoy the others company.

Isn't thats what it's about in the end? The time spent and the thought goes a long, long way.

I was in the similar situation as the thread starter was. I had a job, but it didn't pay me so well and going out wasn't affordable. She picked up the tab a few times, we stayed in a lot. As such we are now 2 yrs happily married.

It's all about little things.

On the other hand you are only 16, so don't stress too much.

 

[Fatghost]

Sex is pretty much free. You could just stick to that.

 

[Scrow]

Oh, you meant splurging money. My mistake.

all too easy

 

[radiuhm]

thanks for all the insight. this is what im doing for her tommorow:

on friday i am going to swing by my gf's house and drop some flowers over with a card that says some sweet things and also tells her to get ready by like 5pm cause she'll be picked up. then she gets dropped off at my friends house which i am borowing since no one will be home, and she'll watch me cook her dinner, after i finish making it me and her will go sit down and watch willie wonka and the chocalate factory since thats her favorite movie, after the movie i'll take her out to the porch and we'll listen to the mix tape i made for her with all the songs that make her "melt"

at the low low cost of $8!

Dark and Long (Dark Train)... such an awesome song. Just saw that movie for the first time a few weeks ago (considering it was about UK drug culture, with an awesome soundtrack I'm really surprised it took me that long) and loved it!

 

[FortNinety]

Explain to her your situation. Ask to go dutch. If she scoffs at that, and the idea of just staying home and cooking dinner, which most women would love, dump the bitch. Cuz she ain't worth it.

 

[Blackace]

If she isn't moved by that than she is worthless...

I seriously want Jinx to be my baby's daddy

I'm sure you were kidding, but that made my morning anyway.

 

[keeblerdrow]

Get a job so you can start at least paying for some of this shit or stop dating till you're in a place where you can afford all this. Sometimes people just aren't ready for dating.

This is stupid. What are you going to do to top this in the future?

You're 16, so I can understand you thinking that relationships are all about this cheesy, stupid shit on a constant basis, but it's not. Surprise her every 1-3 months with something like this, but god, enjoy your time together doing whatever. Don't plan it out and act like you're in a movie just because you've seen this shit happen in movies.

You don't have to convince her to like you by doing this stuff. She should like you for just being you in the first place.

 

[Tazznum1]

16, you're supposed to have little to no money. Jeez. And if she won't hook you up with some dates that are on her, wtf is the point?


You're relationship with a person is usually mapped out in the first 2 months dating. If you pay for stuff 100% of the time, don't ever expect her to. Which is dumb.

Uhh... huhuhehuh...huh...huh

 

[Cherubae]

PS: If she has a job and you don't, I'm sure she'll be understanding and she can pay for a night out. Women aren't these evil money-grabbing entities that some forums keep insinuating.

I pay for practically everything when I go out w/ my guy and it's been that way for years. Every so often he'll pay for something but usually I'm the one who pays.

Maybe that's all part of his master plan... hmm.... seven years and no marriage yet... he's got a good thing go'n :lol prob sit'n at home playing my new copy of Paper Mario or someth'n. He does do the dishes while I'm at work though.

Oh well, he's a cutie

I think you're still missing the point....get a fuckin job man. For one you'll be working and thus not as "much" time to spend cash you don't have and two you'll be making some money so when you do go out, you won't have to sweat it.

He's a whipped pussy that has no self-confidence or individuality now that he's being sucked for cash by a money-bleeding parasite of a girlfriend. Not only that, but he's 16 and too stupid to know any better. I thought this was all assumed.

when I was 16 my girlfriend paid for a few of our outings and took me out for coffee from time to time.
