The guys I've dated so far have been pretty normal. When I think of a guy that picking me up in a BMW or Porsche I feel weird about it. I think it wouldn't impress me and make me feel uncomfortable.

This is so weird right—?

I know most girls like men with money but I personally feel that rich guys are arrogant and I prefer simple, humble guys who don't brag about their cars or how much money they make.

Besides, I've never been spoiled in my life. I'm not poor or rich but I'm not used to fancy things and I don't think I need them.

It's nice to have dinner at fancy restaurants but they're not my favorite. I'd rather eat someplace small and casual with good food and nice background music.

Sometimes I feel like I'm weird for not wanting the princess life style but I consider myself simple and material things are not on my top list. I don't think I'll ever date a rich guy even if I had the chance. A guy that makes descent money is okay with me but not more than that.

As long as he's a gentleman. That's a BIG plus!!!! 😉👌🏻

I dated a Capricorn man one time and when we ordered at the restaurant I asked for something simple. Some plates were more expensive but I don't like taking advantage when someone offers to pay so I went for a normal plate. And he said: "Wow, you're a cheap date".

But I know Capricorns like fancy things.

I'm just not into expensive stuff. Even when I shop, I go to normal places. I could care less if I have a normal purse. It doesn't have to be from Gucci or Coach. Hahaha 😛

The same thing with a guy. He doesn't need fancy wheels when he drives.

I dont like rich guys either.

They're pretty intimidating.

I prefer to do much better than them and drive up with my own luxury, worked by my own blood and sweat.

Just knowing I worked hard for my own stuff is just mad pleasuring for me.


I love rolling up on them on the BUS 49 while they're driving a porsche



makes me feel so strong and valid.

I'm the same but be careful with it. Make sure you truly know your own worth so you are attracting the kind of men you want. And not the broke ass bitch kind. There is a difference!!! There are guys who work hard but just don't make that much. I'm ok with that bc I'm not a money person either. But these broke dudes who don't do sheet and wanna complain about their sitchiation... gtfo seriously.... as long as he's a good man with integrity and pride, I don't see why money has to be an issue. Especially since nowadays both partners are earning and supporting the household. A good man is priceless. The money thing is overrated. It's a necessary evil or i would say fuck it all together.

A BMW isn't what defines someone as "rich". Maybe more financially secure, but that by far isn't the basis of one being "rich", or lacking morality.

They could be people, like me, that know the ins and outs of trade secrets, and make the most of it. For instance, I specifically bought a SULEV (Super Ultra Low Emissions Vehicle) BMW 328i that was sold in California, because I know, that the Air Resource Board has a strict stipulation that BMW must carry a 15yr/150K mile warranty on anything emissions related for my car. That means, basically everything emissions related (Entire engine, fuel pump, gas tank, etc...) in my car, has a free warranty paid for by BMW for basically the life of the car. Therefore, I will likely save money on repairs. That's me though.

And I find most women, don't like materialistic men, unless they, themselves, are as well. But the definition of "rich" is subjective. I don't want to struggle in my life, and live paycheck to paycheck. I want to retire comfortably. I want to buy a house. So, monetarily wise, I would prefer a man that works hard with me, to obtain those goals.

Yes rich guys are full of themselves, I've noticed that pattern. But, having BMW by any means indicates that the guy is rich. Everyone has BMW in my home country and we are considered as "second world" 😄

BMW's , Audis

all terrible cars long term

but nice to look at

Hence the reason I got an SULEV so I can make BMW pay for any long term issues, lol.

I just personally like the aesthetics of BMW's. Has nothing to do with "status". If i was going to humblebrag, it wouldn't be with a car, but buying/owning a house. Cars are essentially a terrible investment, that depreciates in value as soon as it is driven off the lot. So, meh. lol

Most women like a guy with money, it represents freedom of choice. Most women say they don’t like a guy with money, most women always say the opposite of what they mean.

Most women don’t like a guy who brags. You are stereotyped guy with money as also being guys who brag, of he didn’t brag but had money then I think you would like it.

Most women also want a guy they can relate to, and if you grew up without money then you might not think you are compatible. Lots of people are scared of money, because family and friends treat people differently once they have money, they become wierd, and it’s not worth the hassle.

Plus sometimes you really have to ask, if he has a Porsche, then does he actually have money or is he just in debt.

They did an experiment where they asked women to say which guys they found attractive, the same guy stood next to a nice car is more attractive, compared to the same guy next to a rubbish car. This is fact.

lol yes they just want a man to step up that's all.

he doesn't have to be rich though, but if he finds u worthy and worth it, and loves u ..he will spend his hard earned money.

No, it's not weird to have a preference at all.

To be honest, there are some rich and powerful men who abuse their power by preying on women whom they consider as below them in terms of financial and social status.

I dated a rich guy two years ago. A self-made man (Scorpio). We didn't last long (we dated for eight months) because things were getting serious and I don't think I'm ready to commit yet at that time (he asked me to marry him) not with a lot of things on my mind at that time. I also felt out of place with his social circle because I'm not rich like his peers. I miss him so much, because despite the wealth that he has, he never made me feel like I'm not equal to him, and was generous with his time and resources to me (even though I keep on refusing to accept his expensive gifts, fixed sign that he is, he wouldn't back down on me).

I found out last March that he was marrying a woman that came from a well-off family from my female cousin who is friends with his sister. At first, I felt regretful that I didn't take his proposition of marrying him, even though I felt like I have no right to feel lonely about the choice I made, I can't help but to cry after learning that he's gonna marry someone else. 😢

Anyways, back to your question, I think there's always a possibility to fall in love with a person whom you didn't expect to come into your life because you're set on your choice to date others who fit your criteria. I suggest for you to be open to that possibility and acknowledge it when it knocks on your doorstep.

wow really? that was a sad story about your the guy you dated and asked to marry you.

usually in my experience they would cut off family if you're not accepted. i mean they love u the most.

but maybe this guy is more about his family obligations and wanting to to please his family background.
