Right! ...So as a woman does earning too much hinder my chances of settling down? ermmm it plays a huge part. Thing is when your a woman who has everything situated, your making your own money, and your pretty independent, already you fall into the category of that 'high caliber female' the kind that would be considered intimidating to the average male. Although from the offset it's something to be admired it can also be possible for a potential suitor to feel constrained to live up to that standard if they're not on that level to begin with.
After reading DrRob's blog I won't even go as far as saying "men step your game up" because I believe there are a plethora of men who are on their thing, but I will say this; "WOMEN AIM HIGHER" yes I'm directing this at you. At the end of it all we as women should begin to raise our standards and start to become more attracted to the men that are on our level instead of wasting time entertaining relationships with men that are not. (i.e As a career driven woman you should gear towards a career driven man, because 'like should attract like' right?) I've nearly gone half crazy trying to figure out what made me "intimidating" to the average Joe, I've heard it all "u seem like the stush type" "your a bit high maintenance innit" blah blah blah and for ages I thought I was the problem. Maybe I gave off this "independent woman I don't need a man" type of vibe, but in actual fact I was an eagle mingling amongst pigeons. Any man who perceives a woman who is well put together as "stush" is not the type of man a well put together woman should go for...
I'm a firm believer of surrounding yourself with like minded individuals (refer to my other post: Birds of a feather flock together : F A C T ! ) and I guess the same should be said for a potential partner.
Whoever you choose to be in a relationship with should be a mirrored reflection of who you are, where you're going, and what you aspire to be.
