Happy New Year Mojo! Looks like we'll spending a portion of our first day of '08 shoveling snow...
Yeah, it s*cks. What good is it to date giant men if none of them are over here taking care of this for me? I am clearly lacking some essential girl skills.
Okay, here is a serious question for you guys. What should a woman who is currently broke*ss do when the men she dates brag about how much money they have? I feel like I'm stuck between a rock and a hard place because for obvious reasons having to do with my phase of life and previous situation, I want to date men who are over 40 and have/want no young dependents and exhibit a certain amount of initiative or leadership ability. Pretty much every guy who meets this description has way more money than me. I can empathize with the desire to want to seek validation for this but it kills my sex drive when they brag about it even though I know that I stated that I want to date men who show initiative. OTOH, although it is true that I did also state that I want to date men with biceps, things get a little weird if I signal "I don't care about your money, I just want you for your biceps." Of course, it is also true that I wouldn't want to date somebody who wasn't basically a good person but it's not exactly honest if I signal "You make me horny because you are nice."
