Sorry, insisting on privacy is a dealbreaker.

You would want smart children. It is often said the best indicator of your child’s success is the mother’s education level.


Disagree. While it would be great for the mother to be educated, there are countless examples of SAHM w/ a HS education raising accomplished kids. Immigrant families stress the importance of education which is why so many of the children are accomplished.


Immigrant families also tend to have families where both parents are highly educated, the minimum being a college degree

You can disagree but there really have been studies finding this.

You do realize that those immigrant moms are very resourceful and ambitious. They would 100% be well educated if they could.

Intellectual and social compatibility. Good education is a professional degree from a competitive school.

The vast majority of married men I know who are ambitious and successful are married to women who are well educated and successful.

If you're a waitress with just a couple semesters of community college under your belt or just a GED, you're not gonna land some super successful man.


This is OP. I am Ivy educated and have a good career in communications. I am slim and love to workout and am obsessed with self improvement. I also love the arts; classic literature, theatre, museums, music hence why I get along with the cultured but the unambiguous men I’ve met.

Yes, I’d like to discuss Hemingway or Proust but I also like to have a 5 year plan, a 401k and goals and ambitions.

Have you read Proust? Not many people have. The only (three) people I know who have were professors. They were definitely ambitious people, because academia is cutthroat. I think you mean a rich man?


Anyone who has gone to Catholic high school has read that and Faust twice before college. And if liberal arts had to read it a third time.


lol, no one reads Proust, even when you are assigned Proust. It’s like its own joke.


My wife has, but only Swann's Way. (I probably won't ever get around to it.) And yes, that's one of the things (but not only!) that attracted me.

Anonymous wrote:The problem with attracting an ambitious man is that, while they want an ambitious woman, you have to be willing to cast those ambitions aside for the sake of the relationship. So be prepared to get a grad degree but not use it, go to med school then quit when you have kids, etc. As an ambitious woman myself, I've never understood this paradox. If I have the drive to accomplish these things, I have no interest in throwing in the towel when I meet a guy. Seems antithetical.


So true. DH was attracted to ambitious me. Once we had kids, I cut down at work and eventually became a SAHM.

Making being in the top few % of income a “big thing” is pretty much the definition of gold digging even if you earn a sizable amount yourself.


Wait what?

Now we’re at the point where wanting a man who is able to support himself is gold digging?!?
