how about you just be a man and make more than her?
that's not my concern, good sir. i go to stern and have spent every summer of my undergrad in BB IB positions...unless I absolutely screw up or the economy kills me, I doubt I will be making less than her. im more concerned about what her statement implies about her character and priorities. im not in it for the hook ups...if im going to invest time on her i dont want to waste time on someone who is potentially an asshole
she probably just doesn't want to be with a loafer or stay-at-home dad. If you make 5k less than her I doubt you'll have issues. If you quit your job to become a musician and she starts paying for your guys' 3k/month one bedroom then that will likely become an issue. honestly, just take it as that much more incentive to not fuck up.
You state right here that you have spent ever summer of your undergrad in BB IB, so I never said you are a freshmen I read your first post saying you are graduating therefore a senior. EVER SUMMER means you were in IB your freshmen summer. Am I wrong?
If she was a good-digger, she wouldn't be dating you.
100% troll no doubt in my mind
how is this trolling exactly? maybe i actually care about a girl's character and potential future gold-diggerness. if im also pretty naive when it comes to dating as ive only had one relationship before this so please, you dont have any advice to give, dont comment.
she really did say what she said - i mean, seriously...who says that? or do a lot of women say stuff like that? if i were a gold digger even i wouldnt say it - i'd at least pretend to value good character and kindness over money..
This is a finance website not Dr. Phil's Sex Therapy Blog.
Seriously she is just saying she wants someone who makes more than her to keep the traditional male-female dynamic. She wants someone to dominate her, not for her to be wearing the pants.
Man up. Get your shit together. (P.S. - mirror imaging is a a big mistake to make. i.e. - because I wouldn't do it, there is no way any one else would do it. Does Pearl Harbor ring a bell?)
If she's that great, you should be more worried about me ending up at her boutique, as we eat Seamless every night together.
This site attracts the most insecure guys I have ever seen in my life.
lol
Valid point.
Feel like it's gotten worse in about the last year or so.
Dude, I know. It is truly endless. I'd dump the girl for even bringing it up. What happens if you get hurt 5 years into the marriage and she needs to work? What happens if you lose your job and it takes a year to find another one (common nowadays)? What happens if you have kids and take a lower paying job so that you can actually be a good father? Tons of scenarios where you might be making less money.
Being a man is about being a fucking man. Not about the dollars in your check, how tall you are or what your job is. Women want to be with men, plain and simply. And a man isn't this bullshit Alpha wolf crap. FYI, hate to break it to you, but if you are on an online forum arguing about your Alpha status, guess what, you ain't Alpha.
Learn how to make a damn decision on your own, without consulting the internet. Learn how you express your feelings without being a whiny baby. Learn how to suck it up and do something hard without bitching endlessly. And stop thinking a fancy suit and 6 figures will magically make women impressed with you.
OP - dump the chick. You are fucking 22 which still makes you a kid. Not old enough to get married, especially when you are worrying about how many people she slept with or how much you will make. Go work those insecurities out of your system and live your life, then maybe you can think about marriage. Oh, and you've only been seeing this little girl for 8 months. What the fuck are you thinking about marriage for.
You come on here touting that you have had a BB IBD SA position every summer while attending stern (not sure if freshmen can even get a BB IBD SA position even if their dad is the CEO, or prove me wrong). You ask cannot type for shit, which makes me further believe you do not attend Stern. Lastly your girl is going into IBD meaning she will make a ton of money, but regardless if you are both working IBD after college than dump her now because you will not have the time to see each other, case closed.
...when did i say i am a freshman? do you people always automatically assume things without fully reading someone's post before either posting putting words in the OP's mouth or immediately shouting out "troll!!" without sufficient evidence?
anyway, thanks for the last bit of your comment. thats good advice.
I'd take that as a positive, actually. Proves that she acknowledges her true nature as a woman in seeking value and ability to provide in a mate rather than trying to be something she's not.
Put it in her butt.
Case closed.
whooooo caaaaares
This question keeps coming up.
The only option I see is to kill her, OP.
So she's a student interested in careers in banking - she will probably read this post.
She (and most other females out there) just wants to have a sense of security and know that their partner will be able to take care of them. Stop acting like a little ***** and man up. I doubt this will be an issue going forward if you start acting alpha.
Always remember:
Sorry to interrupt this glorious thread, but I'm dying at OP's username.
