That pisses me off.
I linked to this in the other thread.


At least everyone there knows what the deal is, though.

This way I imagine that if you have a high income you get matched with gold diggers a lot.

some men would prefer to be matched with women who earned less...because it gives them the upper hand. but then again, some men don't want an equal partner...what those kind really wish for is a subservient woman who will only attend to their needs.

I don't really find it too odd to be the as MG puts it "sugar momma"

But then if I was single I would in some cases be spending more for just myself without any of the extra income that comes in from 2. So finacially right now i'm better off, even though I make more than he does.

Anyway off topic, I'm super intreaged by this punkyfins, nice social experiment Big Grin

amen, sister! Big Grin

j-just kidding.

anyway, i think it would literally be impossible for me to be matched with someone who earned less than me. they'd have to be in a lot of debt, i guess. i would totally rather go the sugarmomma route. be a kept man. yeah.

Oh. I forgot about that.

Me: Would you want to have a sugarmomma?
Hubby: No.
Me: Why?
Hubby: Because I'd end up being the idiot in that relationship.

I think he means that the person who has the money bosses the other person around.

And it seems I'm buying you dinner tonight, too.

Ms. Fins, if it is in truth a "spanky" new profile, you will be getting a whole new level of replies.
Very interesting replies.

Spanky. heh

I saw a thing on TV a few weeks ago where a guy was talking about how to do well with these types of sites. This was the first thing he said. GET A PORTRAIT TAKEN! The person's first impression of you is that picture on the site. Don't take it yourself. It will never do you justice.


Not that this isn't normally good advice, but personally, I'm usually suspicious of people who have professional pictures up. First of all, they probably don't look as good in real life as in professional photos, and second, unless they're actually models (on a dating site?), who has professional photos of themselves lying around? Vanity much? Trying a bit too hard?

No, you can't win with me. I'm starting to think that I'm just too judgmental to ever be successful at this.

That's part of why i want to keep with this experiment. You might feel it's dodgy to have professional pics up; but what i'm interested in here, is what *works*. I'll throw some snapshots into the mix on my new profile, apart from the artsy ones. Let's see how that goes.
Beez: Yeah... uhm spanky... Wink
Okay. I'm on it, but i do feel for you guys: this is bloody hard work and tricky too.

Sometimes patrons want to go where everybody knows their names, though it helps
