Imagining it up? no I am not (after all, several other people have pointed it out to you), you probably don't realise the vector of your argument, even after its been brought up numerous times. Being able to read these minute details that reveals a person's true intentions is something I pride myself on. I can and have pointed out such minor details to you, you may not think its important, but it is, because if you truly believe in something, and you truly stand behind what you say without the need to gain acceptance from others, your words and how you say them would be different.
as mention, I was being question from different angle, so I made the arguement from a different angle, however the message is stil the sameI can understand your frustration with the more immature members, but do you have to stoop to their level? They will beat you by experience moorish.
yes its frustrating sometimesOh, so its not about advising or educating people anymore?
Since when it was about advising, I've mere spoken my mind and says I finally understand this, because from what I know a lot of girls have this in the back of their mind, money was most time in the equation, they seem to be too afraid to admit this.Statistically speaking, yes, that is more likely to happen. You did after all filter based on money FIRST rather than on character. The initial dates and all were based on his material wealth, not who he is as a person. This initial "filter" becomes your primary need, and when such a primary need is diminished, you may feel unfulfilled.
YOU may be different, but generally and statistically speaking, that simply isn't the case. Advocating and propagating such a mentality is simply going to make things worse for society.
I did not start this trend, its been in the society for too long. Maybe you're not accepting this, lemme ask you a normal OL works in a nice big corporation, then a really really charming boy wants to date her, he works in a renovating company, he do partition, earns 1.5k a month, this is a true story, very very honest boy. You think she will go dating with him?
10 out of 10 girls I introduce will tell me if so good why you didnt date him? They would expect to date a guy at par with their earning and society class at par with them. This is still shunning off a good boy. I dun blame the girls because they've set a standard for themselves and who am I to tell them to lower it?
But when I proceed to accuse them they;re money minded, they would say no I am not, I'm a good girl whos looking for a good capable husband because in future when expenses runs higher I would expect him to be able to meet up.
Its one thing to say "go only after the rich men" and completely another to say "make sure you men is capable to support your future". They may both be similar, and have portions that overlap, but they are entirely different approaches. Can you see the difference?
Now this is how all this started, rich man, I could've put it in a very specific manner, but I'm just converting from the typical chinese saying, kar kor yau ching lou" means marry a rich husband. And it is never about only reserve for tycoons or datuks. The definition of is where the debate lies in. Some whom are already earning 10k would think only 100k deserve the title some who earn 1k would think 10k is rich.
The answer here is the same as the rest for your posting, you;re also taking only a portion of the words to debate instead of seeing the whole posting from my first post.
I've given the example of woman choosing a husband that can protect her form animal, able to get a cave and feed the family, but in modern society a man able to do is equals a man with a house, can raise the children to todays standard equals 10,000BC, hence he needs to at least earn 10k above I duno just an example, hence 10K above is consider rich to me.
The world isn't black & white. Going for either extreme is bad.
I didn't say you had to suck him dry, just that you're using his money for your own needs, without actually seeing him as a person, just like an ATM machine and someone to cheer you up when you're down. Get my drift?
repeatation, I've mention, if he cant swept me off my feet no matter how rich he is...its pointless we cant click hence I wont be his wife.
or are you implying even if I've a career and when time comes I wanna be a fulltime mother, and that will be the time I'm immoral coz I'm using his money?
Immoral by whose standards? Did you that if we all did a DNA test, we would that we're all mostly related to genghis khan? Now tell me, for a man, what would be a greater legacy than that?
You keep talking from a completely female perspective, and now, I'm sharing with you a completely male perspective.
If you wanna go into that angle, man use to be able to kill people and nothing wrong with that, to adapt into todays world, man play PS3 with all the violent game, we evolve. same as how woman would love a tough killer perhaps to be their protection.Regarding children growing up, we can have a separate topic on that, perhaps do one in RWI, it needs a bit of a change of pace

You cant seperate the debate because from the first posting, it is about starting a family, how can you only debate the first half, getting married and choosing a husband but fail to see the outcome later in life because the sole intention is to have children?Unfortunately, what you fail to realise is, this is what you're indirectly preaching.
It is not my fault if you phail to get the concept
Despite him being a great guy and not exactly poor.
well it depends what is your poor standard, 1.8k, 2k, 5k, 10k? My aim is he is capable to support a family
Its their fault for being so naive, however its equally stupid to jump from one end to the other. You can simply tell them that its important that their man understands what a family needs and is motivated to provide for it, or to tell them the importance of financial security and freedom in a family. If your advice came with such a tone, you wouldn't have had so much flak. However, your advice was simply
"no money, no punani"
If they've read the first posting, about providing and not about being a princess and expect the caveman to carry her around they would understand and so would you. It was a basic and comfortable needs, not excessive.
In todays word even a 5k salary earner would still need to tie his belt if he were to do this and not exactly comfortable unless we;re talking about living in Jengka, but we're talking about city
about the flak, many guys have ego and got hurt by itIn all honesty, CC is a horrible place for such statistics as majority of the people here are immature, a lot of responses in this topic alone should be enough evidence

You can throw me stories of your friends, and I can throw you back stories of my friends and relatives as well, both good and bad. All I've learnt from seeing all the cases (my own family included), is that in the end, its the bond in the family that matters, not any other factors and that if a couple gets into a relationship with such a filter first, it tends to stress the relationship a lot more when that primary criteria disappears.
Let me put it this way, money doesn't build a strong relationship, nor does it provide a reliable foundation for a relationship to build on. The bond in a relationship is strengthened based on the commitment of the couple themselves, money is simply a stress reliever in the relationship. Having it reduces the stress on the bond, which means it is less likely to break. This is good, BUT once it starts being stressed, you aren't sure whether the bond can handle such stress or not.
Agree, chances are there in both ends, but at least if you choose the richer one assuming everything is same then she at least gets to enjoy it.If a relationship starts out with both sides interested in knowing the other
for who they are they build a foundation based on that bond. If you have money (or looks if from the guy perspective) as one of your foundations in starting the relationship, when that starts to disappear or deteriorate, its not just additional STRESS being placed on the bond, the very foundation of that bond starts deteriorating as well. Isn't it obvious why things start to fall apart then?
In short, relationships are more likely to fail when:
1) The level of stress a relationship has to handle is not accounted for (not considering money, or the aging effect of the body)
I think money is one of the greatest arguement in marriage, hence I wont leave this out, unless you're talking about we living in jengka
2) Building a foundation on an uncertain/unreliable foundation (rich ppl can go bankcrupt in a manner of days, looks fade with age)
poor people can become poorer too
You fully understand the importance of point 1), but you totally undermine the importance of point 2).
pls read the very first posting and understand the true meaning, its all about providing for the family Also, why did you avoid answering my last question?

I did answer your last question, I've only forgotten to highlight it in red
