Whats wrong with independent busy women?

Just recently joined IB full time in NYC.

I dated around a bit here and there and the moment I said I love an independent busy woman, women automatically assume that I want 50/50 meanwhile I always pay. Never let them pay tbh.

Don't women understand yes we can pay and we don't mind paying but we would love you to be the best version of yourself and not sitting and watching tiktok 24/7?
Men who are out there keep saying women who are ambitious and competitive are a turn off it's because they don't have shit going on in their life and insecure.

You have a very choppy and incongruent writing style.
