[quote=Anonymous]I started off with what I thought was a friendship group of  smart motivated ambitious women. We all graduated from competitive colleges and some of us have advanced degrees. We worked in reputable organizations and made the right connections.

Over the past five years however, I have witnessed friend after friend change after meeting a guy. One married a rich guy 5 years older who owns a business and multiple homes. After marriage she quit her law school application and became a stay at home wife. Brunches with her entailed listening to her triumphant account of how she was so smart to snag a rich guy and now she and her kids are high rollers. I quote, “ Mama raised no fool!”

Another was in finance and talked about being a hustling career woman. Met and is now marrying a trust funder. All of a sudden, she “thinks working is a waste of life” and wants to focus on building a family. She has completely lost any career ambitions she has and is playing wife even before she’s married.

I had brunch with another this past week. She was sooo happy and smug. She said the number 1 thing she’s happy about is that her serious boyfriend makes good money and now she has less pressure to work on her job. She was talking about how big she wants her e gagemebt ring to be and whether she should sign a prenup considering she wants to take advantage of his wealth if it doesn’t work out.

...the f*ck?

Not going to lie. I sat there and felt envious. My husband is definitely not a sugar daddy and I’ll definitely have to keep working. I feel stupid. I didn’t even think of that when dating. Where the hell was my head?
