There is nothing wrong with it. You are just looking for someone who can take care of himself if he needs to. As long as its not just the income you are looking for in a man, it's pretty much normal to want financial stability.

Nothing as long as you're not after him JUST for his money. I think your justification behind this in your personal life is a bit shallow though. Who's to say there isn't a man out there who makes $10K less a year than you who will treat you in the most amazing ways? Who's to say the well-to-do man that you find won't start abusing you a year or ten or twenty after you're married? Who's to say that six months from now you WILL be a "professional?" Hon, incomes change, people change, everything changes. Life is a series of fluctuations and in the end, the two things that matter most are compatibility and loyalty.

Does it really matter these days. That is what most women do. why do you think a lot of men dont give a **** about their looks, but have a lot of money. Why do you think there are a lot of women with tight bodies, fake ****, nice cars, Beautiful jewelry, a hefty back account, possibly a kid, and divorced. I'm sorry, but I say F*ck marriage, all of those money hungry whores and rich asshole men who cheat on their wives have ruined the meaning of "love". If someone were to get married chances are they are making around $30-45,000 a year each, she has a fat *ss and small **** and he has a small d*ck, with a beer gut. i think that is the only ones that have a chance for true love. Just do me a favor and dont continue what everyone else has already done.

Wait until your making big money. Then you can look for equal status. IF your making big money, you will be in the right circles to find a guy at the same level as you. Why are you hanging out with those that are not as ambitious as you are?
Sometime we surround ourselves with people that are less edgy than we are so we look sharper. See how you do among your rich peers. Maybe you don't shine as much there as you do when surrounded by the average joe.

Jade Hi:
Hey, if that is what you want, go for it! It sounds to me like you have a few friends, and close ones, that are bitching to you about you wanting what you want!!!
Well, don't go looking for money. Keep working at your profession and keep yourself busy and growing and interesting. Build your life up. When you meet the right one, or date and eventually you will meet the one that is right.
I am thrilled to see a person with a goal in mind, instead of walking down the middle of lifes' highway and 'bang' not looking or knowing what you want in a relationship!
Go for it....and I am happy for you Jade. Put your best foot forward, because as you and I both know it, the world is going to get very rude and rough for the 'uneducated'. Very hard soon.
Go, go
luv
Ava

Isn't it sad that the syestem has made you a photo copy of what they want you to be. All the forces of society and the media have lead you to the conclusion you think you made on your own.
The almighty buck has killed thousands and dictated morality far too long ...........and it has won one person at a time.
Ask yourself this - what would a billuion dollars do to your morality and then look at the coperations of the world that behave like socio paths.
If you were looking for permision then go for it things have the value you place on them - yours is money

There is nothing wrong with it as long as it is not the only reason for wanting the guy. Love is not suppose to be ,,, What can the guy do for me. Check your values, and remember. If a guy does make a lot of money, he might take advantage of you thinking you are a gold digger. Most rich guys are jerks anyways.

It makes you appear shallow. Plenty of men date women that make less than they do. Mind you I said it makes you APPEAR shallow, you may or may not be, I haven't a clue. Perhaps you are afraid of being the one who has to pay the way? Afraid of a little role-reversal? Again, I don't know you. What I do think may be at work here is socially ingrained sexism. You probably feel that it is the man's place to be pay for everything, and if he makes less than you then he cannot do that.

Well , everybody wants his/her better half to be successful .There is nothing wrong to be pragmatic in life. Apart from economic point of view..there lies an eternal issue of 'Male ego'...Men really can't see women playing a pivotal role in life...they always cling badly to patriarchal norms....inferiority complex only brings troubles gal!....
So go for a bright guy....lets make our treasure hunt equally successful..u gotta touch stone...make use of it...

There's nothing wrong with having financial security, but a lot of guys would consider you a very materialistic person. I don't expect you to marry a bum, but I urge you to not be too selective in men.
