writes: Do men judge a woman/potential girlfriends by how much money she has? I'm a 26 year old who does simply okay for myself, nothing great. I don't drive an expensive car (my car is 8 years old) or wear brand name clothing or expensive jewelry, and I live in a simple cheap apartment outside of town. I just can't afford much and I'm not by any means wealthy, but I get by. I was wondering how men judge a woman's financial situation. I know some women tend to go for men who are well off to feel financially secure for starting a family, but do men think the same way about a woman? I just feel like I don't have much to offer a man financially, I don't want him to feel embarrassed of me, you know?

I always remember those sage words that I heard from my Father,... those oh-so-many years ago: "Son.... it's just as easy to fall in love with a rich girl as a poor one...."
Never forgot 'em.......
BUT, have found out that the rich girls seem to be a bigger handful....
Good luck...

Finances don't matter to the guy as long as you are not mismanaging like raking up debt. Too much of fancy brand names and dolling up is sometimes a turn off for guys who are more practical and are not looking for a trophy wife. Not being a nag, getting to the point and knowing how to finish a sentence are more important then how much money you have.

The fact that you have your own place, your own car AND a job I think means more than you dressing like you had millions.
The fact that you CARRY yourself would be a big plus.
I don't think men look at women as providers in the same was as SOME women look at men. But dating someone who is independent and financial is a great thing, no matter the gender.
