I wonder when will people tell the truth about themselves. I have been on many dating sites, and all I have found is people who can not tell about themselves or the truth. I have met scammers, clingers, and just people who are just out to take your hard earned working money.
They have come for different parts of the world to sites like this, and they just want your money.
I work hard for what I have and work just as hard to keep it but then one day you think the time is right for that special someone and then you get married. Years of being together, then you find out all they want is your money and not you. They want it to give to who ever they want and especially their children, which none of them are yours.
I was married for 22 yrs, raised children who were not mine, but from 4 previous marriages and all she wanted and wants is my money, because she was and is too lazy to get out and get an education and a job.
Some people say that I am too hard, but I work for my money to pay my way, and I expect the same from my mate, they do not have to make the same as I do but at least try to met me somewhere in the middle.
It is a lot safer than being taken advantaged of. But you did not read it as you thought you did. SHARE AND SHARE ALIKE, IF i PLACE HALF THEN MY MATE AT LEAST NEEDS TO TRY, NOT JUST SIT THERE.
lankycrewman: Not my style, I just want the truth which does not come to very many people.
I am not moaning just the facts, and that must be with honesty.
I am wondering if the expectations of American women often differ from those in a lot of other countries. I have the feeling that the traditional roles are more intact in the US - the man being the breadwinner, the woman being a housewife.
If that is correct, I can understand your frustration, especially if children are not likely to enter the equation.
Of course you would prefer to have an equal partner to enjoy your life with, rather than a housewife, who will be busy spending the same amount of money, you had before you shacked up with her.

You are ever so right, I have been around, and when it comes to sharing things, such as work, money and how to spend it wisely, it is not here.
Obviously your mate didn't want to get real.And it took you 22 years to realize,she was only after you money and no wish whatso ever to educate herself and have a job???? Oh, man, then she took you for a long ride.-

well look at it from a brighter site at the end of the day, It`s only money..
Boban1: well look at it from a brighter site at the end of the day, It`s only money..
For many years an acquaintance whinged how the divorce law court gave her ex husband all the money and property only granting her the children. The children for twenty years had to endure the mother's bitterness which left them scarred for life. When the father died he left his reasonable fortune to his daughters. They being so harangued promptly turned round and gave it to the mother. She still continued to whinge. Eventually I asked her if she considered her children to be "priceless" to which she crossly answered "of course they are priceless" . I then suggested that she got the better end of the court's decision as everyone knows that priceless is worth more than mere hundreds of thousands. As we all know "there are no pockets in shrouds nor drawers for cash in coffins". I am the FrayedBear
And you wonder why just don't attact the women you're looking for
Well from reading his post the woman he would like to attract is an honest grown up one that can see it from both sides equally.nothing wrong with that.
Are you implying in your post that most "women" are immature parasitic little girls who think men are their daddy? Because going by your post if he's not attracting any women this most be the case.

You know, the Teddy-bear emoticon from one guy to another is pretty scary ...

We all meet people on dating sites that are not honest and only after money etc. Get over it, it's not a gender thing.
Going on a thread giving out that he only meets these kind of women (and there are obviously other women on here) is presumptious and do you think he does himself any favours with that?
He bashes a women he was married to for 22 years, great way to indroduce himself on a dating website.
