    Bahahahaha, Well i didnt mean your Boss, i meant your Girl, or Possible girl.

    Men get all indifferent once they find out a few things about me which include Income, Talents, Goals i have Checked off as complete.

    I hate when this happens,
    Perhaps it's only the men you are attracted to. Some guys like successful, intelligent, strong women, so find one of them. You don't need to date or marry most guys. So why does it matter if the other 3 or so billion aren't interested? :wink:

    The good ones are not.

    the best ones definitely are not.

    If this is true, then it must be something else.

    A lot of guys want to be the hero and save the princess. If you are already successful and powerful, you don't need to be saved. You don't need a hero.


    Well that just bites !!

    Possibly.... but for boys, who want to control you. Because once you are "saved"...then what?

    OP, you want to find someone who is your best friends, and will be regardless of your professional career & income status, because that can change over night. Best guy is the one who wants to walk with you side-by-side, not ahead or behind, not "save you" from something. If someone needs to be "saved" from something they are not ready for relationship. Basis for good relationship are 2 people who are looking to make someone else happy for all the right reasons, not themselves.

    I am not intimidated by succecssful women, but perhaps successful women might be more intimidating to me.

    P.S. why would any man feel intimidated by a girl that is a good cook or good at cleaning? Does not make sense.

    Why is it you never hear the word/phrase, "Strong successful men"? It's only in referring to women that phrase is used.

    Frankly successful women don't intimidate me. My worst bosses have been women and my best bosses have been women. I have a wonderful woman boss now. Could not do my job without her.

    When I hear the word strong with a woman I think of someone who is belligerent, obnoxious, and self righteous. The reason for that is because I've seen so many women point at other women who had those qualities and say "She's a strong woman."

    Who are these men you speak? I love, respect, and admire "strong women". My mother is one and I'm trying my best to raise one.

    So again who are these men?
