why are there no sites for people on low income to find a partner All the ladies i have been in touch with stopped talking as soon as i said i am on a low pension any help would be appreciated Why even mention your income when in emailing conversation, you are sending out the wrong signals, it could cause them to think you are going to ask them for money, stay clear of discussing your financial position and you may do a lot better. If they are asking you for money, report them to the site because they are most likely scammers. I disagree, it would be part of a natural progression of a conversation. It's almost one of the first things one would ask a stranger at a party, after knowing their name. "What do you do for a living?"....... After that natural question on getting to know anybody - what's your answer when she asks? Lie? Avoid the question? Say 'none of you business'? Tell the truth? If there's an option I'm missing, by all means - clue me in. Out of all the options available that I see, if you are looking for something substantial, there's only one right option. Personally, I am open to all questions, but that doesn't mean to say I will answer every question, there are some very inquisitive people, nothing wrong with generalising or polite evasion when required in my opinion. Unless of course you are married, then to the one whom must be obeyed there is only open honesty and truth.

He's gotta do SOMETHING. A non-answer is not an answer

A non-answer is not an answer Yes, there are many things you need to avoid in light conversation in my opinion, why should he talk about his financial situation, or even want to , you don't owe anyone other than the wife an answer to anything. What should he do, maybe he would benefit from a course in the art of conversation.

my ex left me suddenly for a guy with a lexus suv after we were together 4 years and engaged. they say america is the country least likely to have a mate in a different economic class. some say it is india but it's food for thought...

There is really no need to disclose your income. So far I have not had much problem with meeting ladies. I live in South East Asia and when I am not teaching English I live off 1400 a month. I usually just say I teach English. I am aware that I am living in a country where most people will earn less than 200 a month. In my previous relationship she would cook, clean, drive me everywhere, go on trips with me,and doing gf things so I had no issue giving her 300 a month. Our relationship was fine until she hit me. Usually I want to date women who are between 25 and 35 as i figure if i were to marry them they are not going to be in a huge hurry to have children. I dont date to have fun. I date to marry. I am aware that marriage was not designed for love but for financial and status reasons.
