That would be a great line in an ad!
Agreed. The doctor’s “wallet” is the prime objective. After reading this thread, I’ve told my wife she’s not allowed to die before I do. I think I’d hate to be in a dating situation with today’s gold digging values. 
There is a middle ground. I was with someone once who used me for a place to live and food. If a man thinks a woman worth pursuing he tries to invest and show her he can provide. It had been that way, of necessity for thousands of years. Now it seems to have flipped.
It can be a problem for the doctor.
Probably would’ve worked on me. I was also on Match.com around the same time, and oh lordy, the number of paunchy, balding middle managers looking for 99th percentile-attractiveness women aged 18-23… I decided it was a good thing, knowing I could write these men off as losers without worrying that I was the one being shallow.
Why not? Why badger the woman who has clearly stated her objectives just because you are curious? If I were her, I would just block and move on. YMMV
But she hasn’t clearly stated her objectives. She doesn’t have to answer, but I don’t see the harm in asking for clarification.
Is asking someone out really ‘badgering’, though?
Anyway, I saw her photographs before they were removed. She’s a beautiful woman, well worth a meal and some wine regardless of a few clunky words in a profile. ¯_(ツ)_/¯
I mean, the final words in her profile were something like “contact me if you think we might be a match”.
Listen, forget your money and the house in Santa Barbara, just the “no beer gut” puts you in the top 2% or so.
You are too kind.
I just saw a line on a dating profile that amused me for some reason: “I think that consent is very important in a relationship. If you don’t, please don’t message me.”
Good for them.
Maybe you miss my point. I am obviously all about consent. It’s funny to ask someone who doesn’t believe in consent to not message them.
Fair point.
Unless I read it wrong, OP didn’t ask her out. He asked her to justify her preferences.
Beautiful = ok to ignore clearly stated preferences. Got it.
But you didn’t think so. You wanted to argue about her preferences. Again I ask, were there NO OTHER profiles you could have moved on to?
Speaking of arguing, I don’t know why you’re so obsessed with this. 10 days now you’ve been demanding explanations.
Yeah, this is a bit bizarre. Ranch, the preferences weren’t clearly stated, hence this thread. 
I asked you that earlier. And I don’t think you answered that either.
I am not obsessed. I am having a conversation on a message board designed for such things. One might wonder why you posted if you only wanted people to agree with you.
I am posting from a woman’s point of view. In my experience, men either don’t read what I have posted, or don’t GAF, they just want what they want and don’t take the other person in consideration as if they are a person with the right to have preference. Thus why I said earlier, I don’t have these conversations, I just block and move on. Someone who wants to argue from the get go isn’t someone I want to date.
Let me give you an example. There was a guy who had all of these qualifications in his bio about wanting a woman who goes to church regularly, etc. I read it, and thought, nope not me. And moved on.
He saw I looked at his profile and proceeded to ask why I hadn’t messaged him. In the ensuing conversation he questioned my religion etc. I told him to buzz off. For the next several months, every so often he would message me. I asked him if he had the memory of a goldfish? Eventually I had to block him. It was tedious and annoying. And polite just wasn’t getting it with this dude. Being blunt and even rude didn’t work.
He had no respect for me as an actual human being, he just wanted what he wanted.
Sound familiar??
No, not at all, except from the tales of the women I date.
