As a man are you looking for an extremely successful lady that is extremely career driven and willing to do whatever it takes to make it to the next level or are you more attracted to a lady that is happy at the level she is at and takes the next step as it comes? To put things into simple terms would you rather a 9-5 lady or a 9- whenever the job is done lady? Explain why please.

I am looking for a very motivated woman who makes her own decisions and decides where and how long she works.

Generally most men want Feminine and fit women. Men don’t want extreme career women that would prioritize that over their family.

No to both, women operate unconsciously with a phenomenon known as hypergamy. Unless I am a shark making 400k+ a year, you will leave me if you make more for a male who makes more than you.

The more you move up in your career the more I have to compete with you or you will become resentful that I am not the alpha of the relationship and cuck me or leave me. I will never date a women with that kind of drive, to much risk.

Pro-tip: Become a lesbian and then you can spend the rest of your life with someone that doesn’t need you to make less than them to feel good about themselves. And you’ll probably have a lot more orgasms.

Why can't men provide the childcare? I'm so glad my husband does it because I don't have the patience for full time childcare. These men assuming all men need to hire someone if their wife doesn't do it need to speak for themselves. Being a full time parent isn't lazy.

I’m okay either way. My current SO is very career driven and wants to make partner at her firm. I earn more now and have potential to do so, but if she needs my support at home to attain that career goal, I’m totally happy being a house husband and playing golf.

Most men would want 9-5 who does her job well and makes good money for the 35-40 hours a week and entertains herself and has a life but after 5 doesn’t do much work.
However I like tall powerful women who dominate the workplace and are ambitious and successful so I wouldn’t mind if we talk about work here and there and if she works weekends during the day. I’d rather us both have some balance in life too. No reason to always be together like a 40 hour a week job

If you plan to have kids, marry the woman you would want your daughter to become if you had one. Early 20s me just prioritized looks, but I realized 1. Life is hard and you want a partner who can carry their own weight and make you better 2. If you aren’t with someone hardworking and intelligent, you’ll prob run out of things to talk about

Plus, having a >500k HHI income is fantastic. Yes, not all high earning/ambitious/smart people work beyond 9-5, but I’m assuming you’re alluding to someone who may be more average in terms of intelligence, drive, and income by saying “9-5”

I think men are intimidated by but more attracted to career driven women. But once men are ready to have kids, they become more pragmatic and prioritize good childcare over having dual income.

It depends on what level she's at in her career.

I like ambition. But I don't think ambition has to mean working 12 hours a day.

You go on a date spend quality time , you have some intimate moments and the next thing the guy does is unmatch you on the app without sending a text.
Does this count as ghosting ?
Is expecting a text from other person saying " this is not what he is looking for " is too much to ask ?
This kind of behaviour puts other person on the self doubt mode.
