Who said I don't like your answer? I'm requesting MORE information. If you are being honest this should be a very comfortable conversation.Meh. You asked a question @Urbanyst and I gave my answer. You don't like my answer. That's fine. I'm not seeking your approval.
If I had no value I'd have no results. I don't need to sell you my value. The men who I go out with assign me high value and theirs is the opinion that matters.
Do you even know WHY these men are assigning high value to you? Do you care?
Seems you use the possibility of SEX to extract time and MONEY from men. The usual. A woman is not generous if she is withholding sex for absurd amounts of time. Obviously you don't want to jump in bed immediately, but the "friends first while I spend your money.. and by the way.. we will never get married" approach seems like something that would only work on losers. If they were winners.. you would want to f*ck them AND marry them.You don't understand my perspective because my perspective is not congruent with your belief system.
If you haven't been married and you don't have children to concern yourself with you simply don't understand those obligations & constraints.
My financial stature means I can take care of all my children's and my own financial needs & desires. So one big plus is men know if I spend time with them it's because I like who they are, I'm not provider shopping like many women. I'm also very aware of what things cost & I appreciate a good value. Men see that I respect my own money and I also respect theirs. Interestingly this creates a generosity, of which I am graciously accepting.
Then why are none of your relationships working out?Men like to protect and care for and be generous to a woman they like. In my marriage I got so accustomed to being the one doing the providing that accepting a man's generosity has been an adjustment for me. It's nice to feel the appreciation of good men. I am sweet & supportive & good company for them.
Like Pook says, find a giving woman. Be generous to a giver. I'm a giver & always have been. In a world of takers men really find a giving woman refreshing.
I genuinely enjoy good men. Good men like to be appreciated by a good woman.
Proves my early point about LOSERS. You were generous to your EX because he was a WINNER. You felt lucky to be with him so you worked hard to make it work. Now you are dating losers and letting them chase you and spend all their money on you. No rush to have SEX because attraction is LOW. I get it.
What results? You are not a man. Spinning plates for a man indicates high value. For a woman it indicates low value.Here are succinct answers to your questions.
1. I value my health and my reputation. So I am careful to screen for long term compatibility. I'd enjoy a LTR but I'm in no hurry whatsoever. No marriage needed.
2. That's a question for the men. My results indicate I have high value.
Translation in man language:3. I have my act together, am emotionally stable and cool to hang out with. I remain very physically attractive as well. I'm still a size 2 or 4, BMI of 19 and weigh the same as I did when I was a high school & collegiate athlete. My figure is 36-24-36 as it always has been. People's jaws drop when I mention I have 3 children. I don't look like I've had any.
1. I don't want to get physically or sexually assaulted
2. I'm old and men with MONEY still want to date me so I must be awesome.
3. I'm hot for my age
Gotcha. No further questions. You clearly have a good system going. Have fun.
