Perhpas I missed some posts but I don't recall the OP stating that she'd leave her partner if he were to become unemployed.. I think she simple wants to DATE men who have some sort of financial means..
I think you missed her point with your own defensiveness! I don't necessarily think the OP wants a rich man but perhaps a man who holds a job, has ambition and isn't emotionally damaged beyond repair.
I'd kiss her right on the lips and thank her. Seriously though, I think it's natural to have a twang of jealousy and hurt to see someone who you were once with, moving on. Whether or not you were the dumper..or the dumpee..it can just plane suck..especially if you aren't dating anyone.
You guys have been so amazing! I am so lucky to have met so many great people hear and I insist we all keep in touch..if not here..then through private email! Bill was over whelmed with all the good wishes and he would like me to pass on his thanks to all of you!!
As a young girl I often dreamed of becoming a country fair carnie..sadly..do to my parents diligent insistence that I brush my teeth..I find my dream crushed. Curse you carnies and your toothless grins!!!
I have been on cs for awhile and in that time I was lucky enough to make great friends and along the way met the man I'm meant to be with. Bill has asked me to marry him and I have accepted and am so grateful to have such a wonderful man as my partner. Our wedding date is June 2011, we are giddy with excitement and busy planning our day. I won't be on here as often as before but will pop in to chat with my friends from time to time. I hope you all share in our happiness. I will try to keep you all posted. Love you all! xoxox Nance
RE: Is it wrong to want a guy who is financially secure?
That's just because you have a union..
