Newlife08: Have to disagree arapho, there are some men, not matter how much money they had - would not interest me at all.

Money can't buy happiness for me.

I have met women like that,,,even been friends with them and still friends with one, she was honest and open about it with me,
and she did marry a high earner,,,just as well as she wanted a family and had a lot of problems having one,, expensive ,,

I moved for work again a year ago and I didn't know that many people down here. It was not easy in the start to increase my circle of acquaintances, but I did something about that and joined a club locally. People of both genders are in it, and there is a group who socialises together outside the club and I make an effort to go to things etc.

It might take a bit of work to meet new people, but sitting at home alone feeling miserable is not the way to go.

its easier for women,it really is,
women can make friends with other women and men,
most men just want the women friends,
have talked to a number of women who just can't comprehend men who have trouble meeting women, have come to the conclusion they are not wired to comprehend that, and I think its to do with there preconception of what they think all men are like,,

About 50% of my friends are men, I do work in a prevalent male related working area and I'm just used to dealing/working with them. Not all men are the same (thank god for that!) as not all women are the same, although there is a certain percentage of generalisation possible (I think if we talk about generalisation, we always mean the negative aspects).

There are males in the group and there is some looking for someone going on, but my reason to join the group was to increase my social circle and not pounce on the guys to meet someone. dunno There are actually more women than men and I do try to built up a circle to socialise etc. Doesn't mean I don't keep in contact with my old friends (which I do, but they don't go out socialising much).

It takes WORK to get to know new people and if you want to built up a social live, it is you who has to be pro-active. I learned this when moving to a different country where I knew no one and I made some great friends here.

Very important: Friends are important and not a tool to meet someone to be dropped afterwards!!!

Hi Arapaho wave
Here it's the other way around. Yes, women make friends with other women easily, but to meet men is exceptionally difficult. We don't have the kind of social life that Europeans take for granted. Dance clubs are for the under 30's, and restaurants are closed by 11pm at night and usually frequented by couples and families. Social clubs are few and far between and mostly of the sporting variety. Not easy at all to meet potential partners.

I have said before I find supermarkets a good place to meet people. You can get a good idea of their lifestyle by peeking into their shopping trolleys. and a good way to break the ice is to ask advice about something food wise. I can usually get a laugh by making my accent funny in Finnish.
Our supermaket has a coffee bar with coffee for only 40C and you can really push out the boat with cakes for only a couple of Euros.

arapaho: interesting piece in the courier mail today,
there's a man shortage in Australia,
there are 1.3 million single women aged between 18-35
but only 86 thousand eligible men in that age group,
eligible men being men who earn over 60 thousand a year,
the rest no matter how good a person they are,
must be just rubbish,
money obviously matters, as most men know its a fact of life,


Yes ar, I can agree with this.

On any Bulgarian dating site there is 3:1 ratio of the number
of men towards women at any moment on-line, while on this CS site it's just the opposite ratio. Why? Maybe coz these women think they can catch a man of a richer country?

cheers to all Australian thinkers!

Not all women are up for money.
I myself is still looking for someone whom I can share my life with.
Good man with good heart and soul is not easy to find though.
Just be fair for us women ...

just what kind of relationships are you asking about, MrRick? perhaps in a "business relationship" this is for money.... as in the oldest profession.

but in a love relationship...... money has nothing to do with it- we would hope.

General answer : NO.



If you have the same problem with rizlared, I will give you the best advice:

Go find a woman that fits your wallet, independent enough, needy and doesn't have problem to finance her man. Sugarmomma types.



Not all independent women are OK to finance their partners. Just don't date independent women like Julia Robert types.laugh

I see you're taking things out of context, and using it to slander someone one a separate thread to the one he made the comment on.

Not that surprises me at all, I knew you had the capability to be nasty at any given opportunity. roll eyes

Yes, and I am forbidden to make the same nasty derogatory remarks like your ally did to me. And once again, you always defend someone who tries to discredit others.

I don't think it is out of context. The same complain about women and money thing. The other one indeed directed to certain race.
