And now for the age-old question....

"Does money make you more desirable?"

I know I've been coming here sporadically and stuff lately. It's just that prince.org has been boring and I feel I've become a less admired figure here, unlike....say, Supafunkywhateverhisnameis. I still got mad love for you, man, but you're much cooler now. In any case, every now and then I will pop in and ask the burning questions. This one has been lingering over me for quite a while. See, I've established here before (to ad nauseum for some lol) that I haven't been successful in the love department. It seems to me like you have to have money to become more attractive. Or at least that's why my folks have raised me to believe.

My argument is that, sure, money may make you more desirable but it doesn't change who you are as a person. It can change some things like getting plastic surgery. But if you're an asshole who happens to be wealthy, you're still an asshole. You just have more money now. But my folks are telling me that girls won't go with me because I don't have money which means I can't provide much for her. But I don't think money should dictate relationships. I don't want a gold digger, I just want someone that understands both sides of wealth. Rich and poor, I mean. But money shouldn't be the most important thing. According to many of my relatives, it does. And they're telling me that that is the thing that's keeping me single. Am I right or wrong?

if you go for the type of girl who thinks money is important in a relationship, then yup.

and to add to the topic: i'm learning that "security" makes you more desirable to women...unfortunately, things that give off that "secure" vibe end up involving a good deal of financial savy

You know what gets you girls?

Charm.

More than looks, money or sweetness, charm is what gets you in the door.

And my guess is that you're not overflowing with charm. You come off as socially awkward and bitter. Even before you got to your main point in this post, you had to make sure to mention that you're not as popular on the Org as "Supafunkywhateverhisnameis." Now, you can waste your breath after statements like that claiming shit like "not that I care or anything" but the fact is, the shit makes you look bitter, and that's unattractive.

Hear me out before you start arguing "but that's not what I mean." Chicks hear what you say, not what you mean. And I am a chick telling you how you sound to females.

If you start talking to a girl and make it a point to mention that you're not paid and that's why you don't get girls, she's likely going to run Far. Away. From You. Not because you've told her you don't have money, but because you're a sad sack to likes to moan about what he doesn't have. Chicks do not dig that. Try smiling, listening, responding to social cues. Read about women and how their brains work. And for Christ's sweet sake, STOP BITCHING!!!

Yes. To people you shouldn't desire.

There are guys who keep a woman wrapped around their finger without so much as a dime, so this is not the only thing that's "keeping (you) single". But why would you want someone wrapped around your finger, anyway?

Love yourself and don't believe the lie that you need someone else to be happy. Look at the divorce rate and then factor in people who are separated, those being cheated on who don't have a clue, and those who are just plain in a crappy relationship. Does it look to you like romantic relationships are the key to happiness?

Yeah!

That's easy for you to say, because you appear to be in one of the few completely healthy relationships out there.

And I hate you for that! brick
