I think it’s sad women talk about marrying high status men. It’s how my in laws talk in a middle eastern country, because women are nothing outside of their roles as a daughter, wife, and mother.
We have an opportunity here in the US to be independent, pursue what we want, and if we want a man, we can have one of those too. Find one that is a complement to the woman you are. Stop looking at them as a business transaction.

I didn't marry a high status male. I felt he had potential but that's not the reason I married him. He was handsome, smart, sweet and he said he loved me. Well, he became off the charts successful but everything else stayed the same or got better.

Do you live in DC, OP? The DMV is a materialistic, status-obsessed, area. Out in "flyover" country, people tend to be a bit less gross about this stuff.

No, never even crossed my mind to find someone "high status." I just wanted us to be happy and have a lot in common.

I prioritized both wealth and character. Took awhile, but I found someone with both.

I figured my husband would not make $$$ bc he was a social scientist and aiming to be a professor, while I was in law school and planning on making partner one day. Flash forward 20 years and my husband is making $25K more than me as a contractor and I’m a Fed. I’m still surprised.

Yeah, this was not part of my value system and I always assume people on here are saying it tongue in cheek.

Wealth and status wasn’t a priority for me. I did have several offers but usually felt they didn’t really see past my looks and care about the real me, a couple were arrogant, one was obviously going to be a cheater, and one was so kind and affectionate but incredibly boring.
I married someone as kind, truthful, and loyal as possible, very good looking and funny. He’s not rich but works hard to provide for our family. Friends envy our peaceful marriage and how involved he is as father. My child adores him. I feel very good that I gave my child an exceptional father.
Anyone else not prioritize wealth? How did it play out for you?
I think you are just talking about money? Your husband sounds very high status, as assessed by you, in other ways. Nice!!
