I've had the priviledge of befriending this beautiful, intelligent woman....she is really a lovely girl, however I am concerned about her. She is one of those young woman who are into much older guys all for the sake of money and power. Her latest conquest is a man in his mid 40's, he is very rich and powerful, owns a couple of companies, known figure and well he's asked her to marry him, she's said yes. When I ask her if she loves him, she says no. She says marrying him would be a wise investment. I find that very sad, sad that such a young beautiful intelligent woman, would have to "sell" herself sexually to an older man - old enough to be her father - just so she can get her hands on his riches. I find this twisted both for her and the older man. What are your views on woman who sell themselves so short?

Rooster, I'm a woman by the way, and no I do not want her. And no am not jealous. read the question: it's of a concerned friend. I have nothing against the fact that her fiance is an older man - however I do have concerns regarding the reasons for her dating this man, for her accepting his proposal. She is sacrificing her happiness for money. What ever happened to love. She's told me that she loathes sleeping with him but she has to. Can you imagine sleeping with someone you don't love, marrying someone you don't love.

the power and the money are the best aphrodisiacs...

You know there are places that do not have such a idea as romantic love. They treat marriage as a business investment and what is going to be best for their future. And incredibly these marriage tend to last much longer. So for me personally, I still believe in the idea of romantic love. I would not marry someone for their money. I make plenty of my own. However, to each his own. Some are into the idea of money and prestige and not romantic love. It is just a simple to love a poor man as it is a rich man I suppose. All depends on what you are looking for. I would not worry about her, it is her life, her business and it appears her mind is made up. God bless****

There are many reasons why this happens and one of them is indeed self-interest. That is what she values most, money and social position. In other cases some young women have a need for a father figure and are attracted to older men. A Supreme Court Justice married his friend's ...grandaughter some 40 years difference, and they lived happily till he died.

I did not bother reading your entire statement but I will say I work with a female who is 28 and she is engaged to an 53 yo male. I would not say he is a powerful or rich man by any means, but I will say it's the best and most stable relationship she's ever been in.
Maybe women are looking for that man to support them like the "old days" and they know if they can get with someone successful they will be able to stay at home and be taken care of.

Well, she obviously thinks she has her sights set high...
The typical lazy woman who will give the rest of us a bad name. Look down on the privilages we've been given and the past women who fought for us to not be mere house wive's and trophy wives... The man obviously is in love, is more than happy to have a younger woman in his life(mid life crisis) and spend to keep her. yet he cant really be dof like a bok, he knows what it takes to keep this "concubine"... pay and recieve. Which is worse? the girl of course, coz no amount of money can make up for the respect you should owe yourself or your body... it shouldnt be tagged or priced. I dont know about intelligence...on her behalf. Honestly now....

Because they're not smart who are after men with money. it makes us good women look bad!......my mom's best friend of 20 years married a rich white man who owns his own business. he wanted her not to work, but she said she wants to work. she also has a stable income and always has been. she married him for love. she's 40 and he's 55. her kids are 22 and 15 yrs old and he has kids of his own too. they're very nice people.

It's not about doing an investment. Women look for stability, some one who can take care on them and someone who is more mature than men her age. Psychologically, men's maturation is 3 years behind women so women are most compatible with men at least three years older than them. Maybe you are young and have had young boyfriends, at this point of your life it's about just fun but when you have to think of marriage, you can't just think of about that. At that point women think about stability. Older men are not only mature but they are just more attractive in all senses - I am talking about men up to their 40's.

Money. All women have their price, some higher than others.
