What woman in DC wants a dude who makes $180K?

Tbh I do care about money, because I live in DC and want kids. I do not care about height. I once dated a guy who was roughly the same height as me, but he was very ambitious and wanted a family, two things I think are more important than height.

Don't worry. A man 6' with money won't date you.

I'm 5 feet and I can assure you that I probably wouldn't date someone who is 6.8. Just wouldn't work. That said, I have never taken height as an important factor.

I dated a guy who was 6’3” and it was too tall. We didn’t line up. I had to stand on a stair to kiss him.


Agree there’s a too tall. I don’t like getting blasted in my face with water every time I forget to adjust the shower head

Why do you men obsess about body size? Same thing.


Most men don’t. Just look at the size of the women that the “hottest” guys are dating. The average woman that these guys are dating are not “thin”.


Not thin preference is still a body size preference

I have heard women proudly and openly say a want a man at least 6’0 and who makes at least 100k (I am being generous here more like $180k to be honest). Why do women care so much more about height and money compared to men?


Less than 15% of men are 6' tall. So women are stupid with their standards which they are "allowed" to have. Yet, if a man says she wants a women with C cups and not fat it's not "allowed". The hypocrisy.

I'm a 5'9 guy and I cared about height in that I wouldn't approach women who were taller than me. Fortunately that only ruled out a small fraction of possibilities. My wife is 5'3.

Money was never a factor for me.

So you have little to no interaction with men?

Are you kidding? In my teens, I did not care about money or height. I mean no one wants a complete broke guy but I didn’t care about how much money the guy had. It was his family’s money and I wasn’t looking for marriage or stability as a teen. Ironically a broke guy who lived in a tiny apartment broke my heart and I broke the heart of a guy whose parents were extremely rich who lived in a mansion with servant quarters. The poor guy was average height and the rich guy was tall, 6’3”.

As you get older, you may think about having a family and if the guy can provide you with a nice home. 180k is rock bottom of even affording to buy a home at all. If you want a decent lifestyle, I would say minimum 300k, more like 500k, definitely not the 100k in the OP.


This. Money is way more important than height.


I am not so sure about the money. I am 5'10" and I was a "broke" musician when I met my wife. She is 5'8", who graduated from Ivy and works for Blackstone, with a trust fund on top of that. She told me that she was attracted to me because she found me to be, in her own words, "captivating", with "gravitas", and I am good-looking. She does not care if I am broke. My wife told me that I am much more interesting than all of her wealthy co-workers and that she won a lifetime lottery when she married me. I am a SAHM and I do nothing but taking our kids to school, go to the gym, pickup kids after school, teach my kids music, groceries shopping, etc... Women still hit me up from time to time at Whole Food. Women with money don't look for guys with money, they look for good-looking dudes who are captivating. YMMV.

dp.. she doesn't care if you're broke because she has her own money and comes from money, so that doesn't really count since the vast majority of women aren't in her position.

Women hit on you because you are good looking. They are looking for fun, not a partner to raise their children.


Wrong again. Women with money always want to hook up with good-looking and interesting guys to have children with, even if those guys are broke. By the same token, as a guy, if you are good looking and interesting, you should look for women with funds.

Nobody wants a short broke man.

Very good points. Most men are boring (me included) and the men with interesting things (such as musical talent) about them will always get ahead of the line.


That's why you see musicians, even when they are poor, or college athletes, always get ahead of the line.

I want tall and successful kids so it makes sense to marry a tall and successful man. Our society gives subliminal advantages to tall people. That being said I make more money than my average height overweight slightly balding DH so it’s not like tall and rich are deal breakers.

Curious how tall were you?
