Why Men Are Attracted To High-earning Women by dadycandoit(f): 2:17am On Apr 04, 2012
There used to be a romantic stigma for single women who made money, but those days are numbered

Today’s high-earning women are justly proud of their paychecks — I explore the rise of the female breadwinner in this week’s TIME cover story — but they still often feel that men will be intimidated rather than attracted to them as potential mates. They think their success will seem too threatening and be held against them. As a result, some women in the dating pool devise camouflage mechanisms. A young ob-gyn working in Pittsburgh tells men she meets that she “works at the hospital, taking care of patients” — subtly encouraging the idea that she’s a nurse, not a doctor. When a university vice president in south Texas was on the dating market, she would vaguely tell men she worked in the school’s administrative offices and avoid letting them walk her to her car for fear they would see her BMW. “I want them to give me a chance,” says the Pittsburgh doctor. “I want them to at least not walk away immediately.” ...Continue to read more at http://dadycandoit.com/blog

I can tell that as an apparently typical naija girl, your idea of a relationship is "hooking up with another person so they can solve all my life problems" cheesy, so what I mentioned there is understandably too complex for you to grasp, hence you spewing all that. I want me an independent chic who makes her own paper. That way when we come together, we know we wouldn't be wasting time with each other if we didn't genuinely like each other as "material gains" wouldn't be a factor from any party.

Obviously, this means I have my own thing going on as a man. smiley

Cheers.

OH YES!! grin
Nothing kills a white man's ego than to be outdone by a woman. grin grin grin
That is why by law in America a man and a woman can do the EXACT same job, yet his paycheck is a little higher than hers.
It's no secret of sexism in the work force. So what do we women do? we work HARDER! cool

and it kills them to see us reap the fruits of our labor....independently.

Well they shouldnt be surprised when they marry and their husbands ask them to quit their jobs.

Why the camouflage? To me it's Rubbish! If a guy is intimidated a lady earns more than him, whose fault is it?

I like that attitude.

Allow me to give you a few tips.
If you want to make sure that she is not into you because of money, just make sure that she can take care of everything she needs all by herself. She doesn't need to be RICH. And don't forget that some rich people are even greedier than people who don't have that much money. So you will have to observe closely and carefully how materialistic she is in general.

Apart from that, don't show off with your money to attract her. I think, that goes without saying. wink

PEACE
