Bental: Heck, I am all that and more.

I do own a small car, (which I lend to my daughter), two bikes and the roof over my head. I gave away the floor underneath and the one on top of me to my children and am happy living off what meagre little remains. I spend (give) most of my time helping out too.

I am dating someone special and am very happy. So it works ok for me.

As for being awesome, or not, I leave that to others to decide.
just great you are one of a kind to find a women that wants you just for what you are. cheers man good luckhead banger

venusenvy: Sure I would, In fact I have done in the past. Now however Im looking for something different. I would like a man who would be my partner in that respect. Ive dated rich and poor and it made no difference in the attraction factor for me.


I'm with you there v wave ... the attraction has all to do with attitude and has nothing to do with possessions or a lack of them wine teddybear

sweetlyscented1: Yes I would if they were all those things and we had great chemistry....LOVE is the most important thing as no amount of money or big houses or cars can ever buy such a presious and priceless thing as true.

LOVE

Sighs!!!!!


I agree, money is just an added factor if that's the case, if not
I like the beach anyway, would be perfectly happy going there every day, and I wouldn't live anywhere that was far away from it like I do right now.

Hmmmm lots of idealists on here! Quite honestly, I think it would depend WHY he has no worldly possessions. Has he travelled the world, spent his money on broadening his horizons? That would be okay with me! Or does he have no ambition at all - happy to stay at home and for you to do all the providing? I'm sorry, but although I am not that materialistic, I prefer an equal partnership.... I guess I need to respect my partner, and it would be difficult for me to do so unless he was independent including financially. It isn't just the material side, it is about having self discipline and drive, imagination and wide horizons.......

Some of us really dont give a damn and it is not being idealist, that is just the way we are. Being with a person who is well travelled who has a mind full of information and knowledge, is something else. Whether in the future a relationship strikes up, then the likelihood you will indeed share a base somewhere in the world which will mean acquiring possessions of some sort.wine

I have to say, your post on page three seemed to be one of the more measured responses on this thread.

I disagree. If someone knows the sort of person they like and who would 'do it for them', then differentials in income / wealth are either an inhibitor or put aside.

Unless of course they want someone with a specific lifestye as paramount - a yacht in Monte Carlo, a town house in Mayfair and a ski chalet in Gstaad. Then these things become the main driving factors.

I agree, to some degree anyway. While the idealistic point of view has some merit, there are daily realities of the adult world that must be addressed.

Way back in my younger/foolish days, I dated a young lady who had many of the great qualities listed in the OP. Problem was..her main ambition in life was to smoke dope and stay high all the time. While admittedly, it made for some fun times for a few weeks/months, it finally got to be a burden when I woke up one day and saw my life being dragged down as a result. So I left and never again got myself involved with someone like that again.

Again, I think it depends. I do think that two people should be on the same page with each other when it comes to this kind of thing. Personally, I don't fault anyone who embraces that kind of lifestyle...its just not for me.

I think there's quite a difference between owning a yacht in Monte Carlo etc and having NO worldly possessions.
