For me that kind of "income requirement" is a red flag and there's any number of words for that - gold digger, needy, high maintenance, etc...

The only way it would be reasonable or acceptable to have that kind of "income requirement" would be if SHE is either already wealthy or is making close to that much or more.

She is making an income in that range. That’s why it’s a requirement. She doesn’t want to subsidize her boyfriend. Makes perfect sense.

Looking back at OP looks like she actually makes way more than $250k. Maybe she’s the one who should be fooling around with 25 yr olds...

Sure there might be a few exceptions, but the universe of men who meet OPs requirements is vanishingly small, and out of those men the ones willing to be serious with her might as well be zero. OP needs to either lower her standards or start accumulating cats.

Normal men want women their own age and in similar places in life. It’s actually the rare guy chasing a childless 20 something woman to launch a second family.

When a single guy with $250k+ is chasing childless 20 somethings it's for sex, not for having a family.

I mean...this isn't real, guys, right???

I'm a recently divorced, good looking guy who makes about 175. Yes I pay child support/alimony but I do just fine.

LOL at this lady and her "250 after everything" demand. Legit lol, and makes me think the whole post is trolling.

Child support of course. But seriously you pay alimony in the year 2021? Why? Did you marry an incompetent retard who cannot support herself?

I fell in love at 19. I had no clue what my future DH would ultimately earn, nor did I care. Fast forward 25+ years, and I out-earn him by $100k. NBD. I value him for the kind husband, father, and person he is. And, he's only 5'8" to boot.

I don't mean to be harsh, OP, but your checklist will prevent you from finding a partner. I have to wonder if you even really want a new partner given the barriers you are throwing up. Why do you really want a partner? Do you even want to remarry someday? Do you truly want to build a marriage and blended family with someone new?

It seems like you need to eliminate anyone who wants their own kids since you can't provide that. That leaves you with men who don't want their own kids but will tolerate your kids (assuming you eventually want to incorporate him into your family life...but perhaps you don't). Maybe you really just want a very independent boyfriend who will hang out and travel with you when you don't have the kids? Try to find someone who values independence then.

And remember: if you have criteria, so do they. An aging woman with kids, an ex, and strong expectations about income likely isn't going to be a catch.

Did you even read OP's post? She's happy to date divorced me who have children. She just doesn't want to have more children herself.

Wealthy divorced men with kids are on the hook to support their ex and children. It’s doubtful they will invest in her family or meet her post-alimony/child support requirements. She’s looking for a unicorn.

Her best bet is a wealthy man-child.
