I think it does. I dont think there is a woman out there who actually wants to date a man that makes less than she does. Also it makes a difference in the social circle you hang out with, so yeah the money you make has an impact on who you date.

I'd date someone who made more or less. Money isn't the matter, it's love. [: And love in my eyes has no judgement.

What if you work and they dont have a job? How does "love" figure into that equation?

If you're asking because of not having much luck with online dating, I'd say it's got more to do with your blank profile than anything else. Try filling it out by telling a bit about yourself, I bet it'd help.
Also, "warehouse/transportation"... does that mean you're a truck driver? If so, SOME women (not all!) have something against getting hooked up with a truck driver.... that whole "girl in every port" theory. I know there are some threads on the topic... you might want to check them out, however.... you have no control over what others think. If that's your livelihood you just need to find someone that fits you. Even if that's NOT your livelihood... you still just need to find someone that fits you!!

I've done the online dating thing before and was getting a little tired of it. I was just checking out the forums here. I like online forums, but didnt feel like doing anouther profile. Its all the same anyway, walks on the beach, sunsets, mountains, good food, yadda yadda yadda.
I asked the question cause I was interested in what role money does play in dating. I think if most women were honest they would prefer to date a man that made more money than they do. Of course who's going to be honest when they are looking for a date? I mean I know there are honest people out there and we dont all put out blatent lies, what I'm saying is its like a job resume, people hide the things that dont make them attractive, and so the answers will always be "Money doesnt matter as long as he's nice" but what they mean is "You better be able to take me out to dinner sometimes"
You are correct in that I dont make a lot of money, but I'm not a truck driver, I'm a truck mechanic. I wasnt sure what to put for occupation. I have a house and a truck so I'm not really poor, but the house note, child support, and insurance do a number on this working mans paycheck.

I think I've seen you on myspace. If you want to see a profile page look me up there.

but I'm not a truck driver, I'm a truck mechanic.
You should mention that in your profile then! I bet most are thinking truck driver.
I haven't been on myspace in a very long time... was getting too much attention from 20 yr olds so I closed out my account.
I'm sorry you're having a tough time of it, but I think you might have a skewed view of women when it comes to this sensitive subject. I know there are some women whose main interest is monetary wealth, but I would say most of them don't.
Plus... every single circumstance is different. It's one thing to have a lower income because of region (I lived in an economically depressed area for 15 yrs) or life's events, it's another thing because of having had 10 jobs in the last 10 yrs because you can't hold a job due to a drinking problem. See what I'm saying?
When I was married, I had "money". My ex even told me I didn't have to work if I didn't want to. I had money... and I walked away from it... and I KNOW I'm not the only woman that has... binderdundat

I've not really had a problem with women looking to date for money. I just see how money tends to put you in different social circles. An example: There are a lot of women out there that are big LSU fans and they are pretty successful. I think someone like that would prefer to date someone who has the means to buy season tickets rather than someone who would have to rely on them if they want to go see the games.
My problems arent particularly tied to money. There are plenty of other reasons I've never been attractive to women, but I'm coming to terms with it.

Well the whole big LSU fan thing, if the chick is a big LSU fan then she probably already has season tickets. I don't care if a guy makes more or less then me. My ex husband made more and it still didn't work out. I think it is normally the guys that don't like the fact that the woman is making more money than them. I'm not gonna go into the whole love blah blah blah, but if you both support your own selves then who cares who makes more money?

I don't think it's a deal breaker, but truth is, I prefer someone close to my bracket.
I have certain challenges in my career that I find it easier to date someone who
can relate. I work long hours, sometimes offshore, and I also travel. Fortunately at a time in my life where I'm no longer balancing children with career (..there really is no such thing.). I need a man that can understand my pressures - but also be there when I need him.

it surely does because some people will take you for granted. for example this guy that i met claimed he had money and wanted to go on a cruise i paid my share, thing didn't work out and now i shitted out of money so,
Okay Tyrone i have been patient enough and asked nicely. YOU were the one that called and said that you were going to pay ME BACK. Now just do so stop playing the childish games and hiding or not picking up your phone and pay me money.I'm tired of calling you and asking for 200.00 now pay me ... You said you were going to give me my money back and believed your lie. And told my sister that i ll just give the money to her now she is waiting and you are acting o fool. Quit being a child and call me or send the money.... I don't owe you anything and all you owe me is my money that i paid for a cruise that i care nothing about . Stop with the petty lies and pay up. Stop playing church your suppose to be a christian and your contradicting yourself. You are not truthful and this is stupid. Pay ME MY Money NOW. just send it western union let you tell you balling out of control and got all this money what is 200 dollars send me my money now, Tyrone Coleman!
