Love for a man dramatically increases as his money increases

Many people say that they do not love for money but I tend to disagree. Would a woman love a beautiful man who had no future and is homeless? Maybe that is true for some women but most women are realistic and tend to value security and stability for themselves and for their future kids and family. Like the song "No Scrub" by TLC stated, "I don't want no scrub." I did not imply that one necessarily loves a man strictly for his monetary wealth I'm just saying that the love for a man usually increases with their money and likewise may even decrease if their earnings fall. I heard two college students talking about this as I passed them by on campus, so I decided to address it here on myLot. Do you agree with this statement or no?

who wouldn't want to marry this guy who has everything to offer a girl? if love and money could be found in one person why not? i think that is why we have so many cinderella stories..romantic isn't it..but in reality..in reality we are in a not so perfect world. i don't know if im gonna marry for money..i wanted no less than love.

People have different points of view some people love their man because of money some don't. On my opinion, it better to have love than to look for his pocket. Love can not be bought.

I don't think this is true at all. If I love someone, I'm going to love them whatever his bank account might be. If they are a jerk, conversely, I'm not going to put up with it whatever he might try to buy me. I realize some women tolerate unacceptable behavior from people who buy them things, but those women aren't this woman--let me assure you.

I don't belive taht love is directly proportional to money. I agree that every girl considers the monetary situation of the guy before falling in love with the guy. But, love doesn't have much to do with money as far as I am concerned. Love is something you can't buy with money. True love doesn't involve money. I more care how the person cares about me rather than how much money he makes.

It only means that they did not love a man just because he has everything like for example he has luxurious mansion, sports car, yatch, etc. Or in other terms if happens that a woman has fallen in love to a guy it is not exactly he is rich. For example a woman has fallen in love of Bill Gates for he is not because he is rich and famous. And in my opinion it is true that there are people that they don't love a person just for money it depends on standard but again it is not all about the money. If you just love the money then why would you need to commit for a relationship if that is just about the money? Love would not fulfill if money is your only concern. Base on your example being a homeless is kinda exagerrated but yes it could be hard to love someone that has no future.

I don't think so. Most women had a mindset that getting married to a rich / wealthy men will elevate them up to a good and healthy lifestyle, but only a few get lucky, most of them ends up in a miserable life that they never expected. Women should think well in getting and/or committing in a relationship, their should be a balance between heart and mind. They should not only think of the tangible(money and possessions) characteristics of a man but also of his intangible characteristics, e.i. understanding, caring, hardworking, etc. They should always remember that succes in marriage depends on the proper cooperation and good disposition of both parties involved.

I Hello, I would not say all women would love a man for the size of his wealth but there are alot of shallow females who do. An example being your average male on average earnings could go to a club and only attract an average amount of interest in him. If the next day he wins millions on the lottery and then goes back to the same club I guarentee he would have women falling at his feet for attention. Love is not the right word to use in this case. Just think how many rich and famous people get married and how many get divorced after a short period of time, so love was never really there in the first place. Of course this can and does happen in the opposite direction ie. man falls for rich woman.

Its a yes for me more love when there is more money Notwithstanding the real relationship where there is already love, with more freedom ( means better lifestyle for a more healthy relationship) With more money/saving you have more time for Dating or in marriage its called "Catching up" with my 3 kids my wife is a bit a Housemom for the care taking of our lovely kids, so when i gain more on my business we have appropriate money to spend for our recreational life.
