Mach, I have to be very honest with you- there is no way in h*ll I would put that in a dating profile. Ginger has a thing about men saying their kids come first. I have a thing about people of either sex saying they're mentally and / or financially secure.

When it became general knowledge that we were kaput and had sold our marital home, I actually had a couple of guys not ask but state, "you must have a pretty healthy bank account" I cannot tell you how offensive that was. What's mine is mine and for myself and my son, not some rando dude looking for a sugar mama.

And if the guy wasn't looking for that, my bank account is none of anyone else's business.

I'd have to question why they're saying they are mentally secure. Does that mean at one point they weren't mentally secure?

I see so many guys' profiles, "steady job, own my own home" ... lots of people have jobs and own their own homes. What I want to know is, are you an @$$hole? How do you treat others when no one is looking? What are your core values? What makes you laugh? I don't need to see photos of your boat or your motorcycle.

And if they're putting material possessions in their profile, why be surprised if they attract someone who wants those things?

A box full of darkness.
It took me years to understand,
That this too, was a gift."
