Why can't she picky? So she should just grab the first guy who winks at her? Girl, stick to your guns and don't lower your standards just to be "nice".

No poster suggested that she (the PP) lower her standards to be "nice."

Posters have suggested, with good reason, that she take a realistic view of the type of man who will be interested in her. Specifically, she should understand that being picky eliminates options that are in her league, and by sticking to her guns she is likely to be holding down the fort all alone.

I’m The PP. I’m not sure why you think this, I have plenty of great men who are interested.

It’s funny how people tell me I need to lower my standards, when I have zero trouble finding attractive, wealthy, sane men.

You’ve also managed to hijack OP’s thread to go on and on about how great you are while others are trying to answer her.

+1. I don't get the weird hijacking going on.

Keep on the same path, OP. My friend wants to buy a beach house.

They can definitely sniff out who wants them for their money and prestige, and aren’t interested in those women. I make my own money, and I’m very feminist, so the last thing I want is a man’s money. They appreciate that.

What’s more challenging is finding men who will be equal partners and make me a priority. The problem with the professional men is that their career will always come first, no exceptions. I’m not really interested in that. I’d rather be with someone who makes less but is a good partner.

What do you think makes you attractive to professional men?

I treat them like human beings and not ATMs. I don’t like it when men objectify me and pursue me for sex, so I don’t objectify them and pursue them for money.

I have a career of my own and I’m low maintenance/laid back. I have a sense of humor. I ask them to go hiking for dates instead of a fancy dinner or drinks. I don’t try to jump through hoops in a desperate attempt to get a rich man to want me.

For sure not all guys are into me. There are plenty who want more of a trophy, and that’s not me.

Basically just be a good, kind person.

What happened with these guys to where you’re still looking online?

I'm super picky

I have a fulfilling, rewarding life. If I'm going to commit to someone, they need to add to my life, but I find most men take away from it.

I say this with all kindness, but the guys on dating apps aren't the problem. I absolutely agree that many men aren't good for you but in the end you only have to make it work with one (1). Your pickiness at an age and state of life where no one can afford to be picky proves you don't *really* want to be with a man in any serious manner, which is perfectly okay--it's your life, but you're going to have to own it.

Ha! Yep, in a lot of ways, I am [picky]. It's served me well!

Has it though? You are on DCUM decrying the fact that you can't get a date on OLD?? Asian women are sought after. Women in general are sought after. Not sure what is going on with you beside you give off a very offputting vibe.

I am Asian. Does that count? Maybe white women have it easier.
