Does money buy love?

studentphil

This topic has a money related issue. It seems to me that all the popular guys at uni with the women have lots of wealth displaying assests like cars and flash clothes.

Is it really possible to get a girlfriend if you are not lucky enough to have all these assests? I might like a bit of female companionship but sadly I do not have all these riches.

So, is it really as it seems that rich guys can buy the heart of a woman?

Thanks

I think women are attracted to ambitious men. My husband and I were just children when we met, but I have always pushed him to be successful and to aim high. This has led him into a good career.

I have to say when I was younger, money did not matter so much, but if I was looking for a husband now money would be an issue. Anyone can work hard and become comfortable financially. It all depends on whether you want it badly enough. I could not be happy with a man who was content with working for peanuts and being poor.

You sound a bit bitter and jealous. That is a turn off for women. Be yourself and if money is not important to you, you will find a like minded women. I have to say I am a student and none of the young blokes have fancy cars and flash clothes. Most of them are struggling to get by. I think it is normal to be skint in your uni years. You must want a decent career and financial security though as you would not be at uni otherwise.

I do hope to be decently off (hopefully well off in the future). It is just one of those things that Some women go for brash guys with lots of money. Money really does make the world go around!!

Maybe you are going for the wrong kind of girl? "Flashy" girls tend to go for "flashy" blokes. I am sure there a lot of nice, reserved, kind girls on your course who are looking for love. Maybe try giving someone a bit different or shy a chance? You may be suprised.

That is true, Lisa, I do not go for flashy women, but flashy women are more numberous than my down to earth type.

Go on dates with rich girls and poor girls. You will have fun learning , regardless of their riches

You will never find a Princess Charming unless you kiss lots of frog (esses)

I've been with my other half for ever (not really, but for a long time now). We were both poor as hell when we met, and now we have great prospects. What makes us strong is that we've supported each other through our career choices and have been there for each other.

Money does not by love. It might buy lust and greed though...

Buying love.... no.

Buying cheap women... most definitely.

This is a tough one to be sure. Men do tend to be attracted to women who show off what they have (short skirts... low morals etc.). At the same time, these women are attracted to the men with all the flashy money'd items. So if you are a guy and dont fall into that category, you can be left feeling that all these gorgeous women are unacessible and it could lead one to be jealous. However these women are not necessarily what you want. They are (by definition) rather shallow and who knows what they really want in a relationship. But there are other women who are not like this at all. They are just normal people like you... probably looking for a guy who isnt fixed upon the size of their chest and getting them into bed. But you do have to realise that these will not be the women you see looking stunning at a club... they are the hidden jewels and you just have to open your eyes enough and you will start to see them.

and what if like me you have a face that looks as horrible as anything? lol. women imho go on looks more than anything - ive been single for ages, looked but not 1 lass will look at me twice - why? cos im not good enough for them. not "hot" enough for them. i dont have a 6 pack, i have a keg! but at the same time - shallow women, aint worth sh*t. sure, they look hot, they look"omg" but thats all - most of them are sluts - jump from one to the next....

why women have to make themself cheap, ill never know....

Women don't go for looks. Shallow women tend to go for looks alone, or women who just want men for the same reason that some men want women - eye candy. Being with someone is about a lot more than looks, it's about how you get on with the person. In my experience, I've found that confidence is the biggest thing for attracting a girl, even if you have to fake it initially - it's breaking the ice that's the killer!

What's the worst that a girl can say to you if you ask her on a date? No? Every guy will get rejected at some point in their life (some more than others, (like me!), but eventually you'll find the one who doesn't say no, and when you least expect it!)....
