Do girls want only money?

[Gigabitch]

Your dad sounds awesome! Your aunt sounds lame, though. Given the option, I'd rather go on walks around the neighborhood with my kids than sit on my ass all day getting spa treatments.

You see, when I think of a girl who cares about how much money I make, I think of auntie. Even if I did have a wife who wanted to do everything, including cooking all of our meals, doing all of the dishes and laundry, cleaning the house and taking out the garbage, I wouldn't like it. She would probably be a boring person. Splitting all the bills makes me think you have a brain, or at least some ambition.

You live in vancouver?

[SirWagginston]

As of a little over a month ago, yes.

Okay, technically I live in Burnaby. But come on, it's Vancouver.

[girl68]

You must be a newbie here. Because if you tell locals that you live in Vancouver but it's actually Burnaby they will correct you.

I live a block from Boundry (Vancouver side) and everytime I say Boundry they say "oh so it's practically Burnaby". I say "no it's practically and technically Vancouer. If I lived on the other side of the street I would say I live in Burnaby."

BUt I guess you're just using Vancouver to signify "lower mainland BC" which I totally understand.

Sounds like your aunt isn't a stay-at-home mom as much as a stay-at-home nothing. If your kids are in daycare and you're just sitting around watching daytime TV, you don't deserve the title of stay-at-home mom.

Fine, I fixed it.

And yes, I'm a newbie here. I have family in the area, but I didn't visit them too often. I've actually been to Ontario far more times.

it takes a pimp like me to dish out this kinda money that attracts these dumb girls.

Sir Waggingston, I could never have married someone like you. Not in a million years.

[petesteyn]

I just found some more support for my argument that unconciously girls crave for money. Just go to brewatalk.com and you would knw wat i mean.

Aww, way to kill my dreams.

Toddlers are the most unreasonable people on the planet. They are stubborn and stinky and they wear you right out. My daughter once went to the fridge and got out a dozen eggs and broke them on the couch in the time it took me to go to the bathroom and she wasn't even a naughty kid, generally. It is SO much easier to go to work eight hours a day than to raise kids. I've done both and i assure you, being a stay at home mom is a hard job, especially because so many people don't value it at all.

They can be devious little runts! It's all intentional!



But yeah, personally, when the time comes, I hope it'll be possible for me and the missus to find a middle path with both doing part-time work and part-time stay at home, perhaps alternating days or just fewer hours, but it's probably something that is difficult to get together. I reckon it's a whole lot easier to find a common ground with a pretty equal relationship, rather than having one being the provider and the other being the the stay-at-home one.

A woman who seeks a man that has a reasonably well-paying job is, IMHO, simply making a rational decision. In today's world, it's just not reasonable for an adult of either sex to expect to be financially taken care of by his or her partner, the exception being temporary unemployment or underemployment.

The stay-at-home parent thing--yeah, there is a double-standard between SAH moms and SAH dads. But Sir Waggington, I think you underestimate just how tough it can be. Kids don't cut you a break any time you feel like it--they have needs that have to be met 24/7.

Oooh...first proper post.

Some certainly do. But it's the same with men, too. There are greedy members of both sex!

Kevin

Men have problems of their own. But greed? No.

I wud go a little further still and say all women love money and money is their priority. But my problem is not tat. my problem is why do they have to be hypocrite all the time and say they are luking for humurous, chivalrous blah blah blah men. Why can't they just say they want money, that is it.

Some women do this, yes, but you're making a stereotype here by saying that they all do.

[SirWagginston]

Maybe I'm just thinking of stay-at-home nothings, then, because I've known a few too many. God, I wish some rich broad would pay me to sit at home. I could play video games all day! If I started to feel bad about it, I could just use her money to give to charity.

Haha, I'm sure I'm sounding like a man ho, now. To be honest, I've considered entering that profession.

[Charlie Boy II]

I was seeing this girl whose dad was a multi, multi millionaire. The thought did occur to me that if we ended up together I'd never have to give money a thought again. Wasn't such a bad prospect. Too bad the girl was a lunatic.
