He still has much to learn if he wishes any woman, or anybody to take him seriously as a contender on the planet. At 34, he should be Alpha male enough to demand and stack more paper than he currently claims. This is the classic example of a man settling into one particular lifestyle, when the goal of a man is to constantly upgrade his lifestyle/living situation. Remain hungry, never settle. He seems a rather sad case, begging women to accept him, when the very female psyche with regards to dating/mating is rooted in security.

He said that he believe that a lot of women would reject him because of his income. He said that a lot of women are looking for men with a certain amount of money, and financially he's not there yet and for that reason he feels uncomfortable trying to start a relationship with a woman.

Money can affect some men self esteem, especially when we live in a country where it seems like a lot of women are out for money, or judge men based on their money.

He's gotta believe in what and who he is as opposed to money defining who he is. If you have those kind of esteem issues, you can't expect women to go for that.

If you have those kind of esteem issues, you can't expect women to go for that. This is the key. It opens the door to feeling good about yourself. If you can't do it, you can't ever believe positive feelings from others.

Quote: when the very female psyche with regards to dating/mating is rooted in security. true but mostly untrue in the other races... it`s still an important factor in blacks, but b4 we start usual ``black this and dat".... know this is more a social and class issue.. people who recently escaped poverty and the new very rich don`t ever want to be reminded of poverty in close quarters daily go ahead and correlate where the black race is at economically in America and the prevalence of above started phenomenon in black female -male interaction folks u gotta stop cussing out the brother ps: my advise for the brother is... dunno about marry up or marry down.... if it`s an issue why bother? u can`t change people`s belief nor have any right to attempt to do dat .... just change your own perception there is somebody out there for everyone... go out and find her Edited by beserker, Nov 10 2014, 12:16 PM.
