I date a few different guys, one makes $150K a year, has his own business, owns several properties, drives a sports car, lives by the beach, age 50, also has a unique quirky sense of humor which I can't seem to get used to. Then there is this other guy, age 53, awesome chemistry, drives a Hummer, also has his own business, owns several properties, but is not into looking for a commited relationship right now, wants to play the field, sigh. Ok, so I met a new guy last night online, younger than the two I just mentioned, just 38 years old, does not have a great job, works two in fact, owns a brand new red corvette, has a 3200 sq ft house, and we talked for 1-1/2 hours on the phone, it was like the chemistry thing was just there. I don't usually chat that long with anyone I've just met. We have yet to meet, he lives in Mass, I am in Connecticut, about a 2 hour drive. I wonder how a long distance relationship will work, I've never done that before. I also see a 34 year old guy, been dating him 6 months, well...just on weekends, he lives an hour away, even went on vacation together in Nov. to Vegas, real sweet guy, has his own house, not rich, but comfortable, makes an average living, think the world of him, but, commitment phobic, wants to date others for the experience, and since he is younger, probably not a mature 34 just yet. Each guy is different at the same age.

I am right now leaning towards the 34 year old, but i can't hold onto hope forever, so the guy in Mass, the 38 year old, well...he looks like he has potential as far as a long term mate 'cause he has the college background I like, has his Bachelors, is smart. I usually look at what is on the inside of a person, their inner beauty, but it never hurts to be financially well off. I just happen to meet those type of guys, I don't look for them, they just fall into my lap (LOL).

Wow, its great to see that you are dating around to see your options but you should marry the one that your heart tell you. Money is just a source and doesn't buy true love. If you marry you want to be with someone that you can shar a special bond with.

You dont want to marry for money and not be happy with the outcome of your partner. You main focus is happiness and who brings you happiness. You heart and instincts will bring you to that successful direction. I hope this helps some.

I know, I'm dating a great guy now, has a ton of money, but I don't feel that chemistry thing as much as he does. Then I date another guy, has alot less money, but we are good together, share the same interests, I enjoy being with him. I am leaving my options open.

Thanx!

\ I am leaving my options open.



Thats right and leaving the door open will allow all to come in but you go with what you see the connection works best on.
