It isn't too often that you meet a woman who has it all. Let's face it: most times she's hot, but has a bad personality and is always asking you to pay for everything. Then you get chicks who are insanely loaded, but aren't too much fun to look at. Unfortunately, that seems to be the case on most rich dating sites. Then, out of the blue, I came across a woman who was both rich and sexy, not to mention she had a killer personality.
Unless you're willing to move halfway across the country, the chances of scoring wealthy single men looks pretty slim. Even if you are willing to relocate, rich dating sites can be deceiving. All of this was relayed to me by a friend who I suggested check out these sites, as she's looking for someone just as successful as she is. She's a lawyer in New York and as almost any single New Yorker will tell you, the selection of decent guys who make a substantial income is paltry at best.
The very first thing I thought was "This is too good to be true." I met this rich pretty girl on a wealthy dating site and couldn't believe she was interested in someone like me who is still living paycheck to paycheck. Nothing in my profile information indicated my financial status, so I assumed she wasn't a stickler when it came to dating someone in the same tax bracket. Not so. I believe I've set a new record for royally screwing up a first date and it was all due to money issues.
For almost six months now I've been trying to find the right wealthy dating site as my father has been searching for rich women looking for marriage. I've come across quite a few sites that looked very promising, only to be disappointed time and time again. There are a whole slew of reasons, the most common of which seems to be the sense that none of them are as legitimate as they're made out to be. There have been far too many stories of fake personals for me to trust any one site 100 per cent, but I'm not sure where someone else such as my father would look for love.
I always dread coming home to my parents' house for dinner. No matter what I do, my mom thinks that I could have done better. When I was little, she would complain that I never earned enough gold stars like the other boys in our class. When I was in college, she would complain that I should follow in my father's footsteps and study law instead of journalism. Things have gotten worse now that I'm working. She complains that I'm not earning enough money because I chose to become a writer instead of a lawyer. The cherry on top? She often compares me to some of the book club ladies' sons because they're working as doctors, lawyers or whatever. I have asked her to stop comparing me to those wealthy young men, but I'm usually tipsy every time she starts nagging me. Alcohol makes me a little hard of hearing and unfocused, so it's difficult to get my point across when I need to tell her that I'm not really into wealthy dating.
It pretty much goes without saying that getting rich is not an easy thing to do. It may not be so obvious that getting rich while keeping a good relationship on the right track is doubly hard. I met a woman after chatting on one of many rich dating sites - all the effort I had been putting in at work was finally paying off and with a raise and benefits, I found my savings beginning to swell, so I figured these were the right online dating destinations to explore. It was only later that I found out that the lady I met was not actually among the ranks of the other affluent women I chatted with, but after getting to know her, this small indiscretion didn't matter so much. We clicked perfectly and that's what was - and still is - important.
A typical scenario I've come across when trying to find rich women looking for men is that well, they aren't looking for men at all! I've all but given up. It seems that most affluent women are interested in pursuing those careers that brought in all that cash to begin with. For most ladies, it seems their life revolves around making money and they simply don't have the time to invest in a relationship. I'm really not looking for any kind of one-night stand or casual sex. I want a meaningful relationship with a woman who is as affluent as I am. So after all my failed attempts at finding a proper mate, I caved and decided to check out some rich dating sites.
Regardless of whether you have money in the bank or you're in the red, you may find it difficult to seduce wealthy ladies. Assuming they're single, these women are likely very autonomous go-getters who have climbed the business and financial ladders, so your account balance probably won't be enough to woo her. Of course, you can check out a number of wealthy dating sites. There's no doubt you will find rich women, but I think most would agree the real trick is figuring which of them are willing to date a guy with a light wallet.
The legendary couturier Valentino once said, "the number of millionaires in their 30s is frightening, but very often they don't have good table manners," you have to admit what he said is true. Truth is, it's not just having good table manners. Generally, it's about conducting yourself in a manner people will respect that counts when you're out in the real world. Okay, I may not be a rich boy and I may not have a reality show on MTV. I don't have the funds to buy my honey a Prada bag and I'm pretty sure the best gift I can probably give my girlfriend is dinner, a bouquet of roses and my naked self on a hot date, but she's still with me. Perhaps it's because I show respect towards her parents when we visit for dinner. Or maybe because I always compliment her on her cooking whenever she feels like whipping something up in the kitchen. Unlike her previous boyfriend (who once bought her a Louis Vuitton bag), I always clean the dishes after every meal. Face it ladies, the words wealthy and educated rarely come in the same sentence these days.
It seems all columns and articles directed toward men relating to wealthy dating give tips on how to marry a rich woman, but there are some things you may want to consider before seeking out a wealthy partner for marriage.
