as well as keeping up "appearances " …
Re: Male Goldiggers
Great topic Sheyn.
Unfortunately, there exists that breed of men who would bank on their education, looks, charm, charisma or whatever else as a short-cut from rags to riches. Having a sweeping criterion, i.e., not to marry anyone with a status lower than yours could be damaging, as you could be ignoring someone genuine. Gold-diggers can be identified easily by hanging out with them to know how much (even subtle) references they make to money. Their track record about money in terms of owing money to friend/family and relying on others for it, could also be a strong indicator.
Re: Male Goldiggers
Thx Initiator !
you are right at the references to all things material !
that’s definitely a point to be kept in mind …
however abt them owing money etc , how would one get that kinda of info ?
Whattttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttt ? 
Re: Male Goldiggers
I expected better from you Sheyn.
Anyway as SU said perhaps a credit ref. check can quash one's concerns.
Re: Male Goldiggers
Orpheus…not everything is skulls & daggers ! Ur getting fooled by my signature maybe 
SU…how does one do that ? does the bank give that info out openly? sorry i’m clueless in these matters …
Re: Male Goldiggers
Oh yeah i just realised one can’t do a credit check for anyone else other than yourself. - Data Protection Act reasons.
for SU.
Re: Male Goldiggers
Without his permission, you can't get his credit info. So, he must agree and get one done on his own and show you the report once it's back.
Another thing sheyn, credit report shouldn't be the deciding factor because he could be going through hard times, student loans, etc. Analyse his work ethic - laziness, will-power. How principled is he - you can tell a man with principles from a mile - how strongly does he stand up for things, etc.
A man with a strong character and principles will not be a goldigger. No doubt about that. :)
Owwwwwwwwwwww. Well it was obvious info, not my fault if you didn’t pick it up 
As for how to avoid them. Perhaps having garlic hanging around the neck, i read that on askmen.com men find this a big no, no. :D
i expected better from you Orphy ! 
how many times have i told u don’t believe everything you read
and stop visiting askmen.com…hasn’t it gotten u into trouble enuff times already 
Re: Male Goldiggers
I find that a place of solace. 
Re: Male Goldiggers
awwww…Orphy…Already !
Re: Male Goldiggers
The ones who compliment you, ask what car your parents drive, ask what your parents do etc.
Re: Male Goldiggers
OMG this thread should be locked and removed.
Re: Male Goldiggers
I also think they are so much into money and how having money feels like. So they are good are pretending to be a big shot them selves.
thats exactly my point…and ppl get fooled into thinking that if these ppl have it “all” they won’t be looking for more
Re: Male Goldiggers
Tell them that you'd like to live a very simple life in a middle-class neighborhood. If you were rich or were to strike it rich, mention that you'd take all the extra money and buy an orphanage with it or something. Or spread the wealth around so that you will only be left with enough to live off. Say that you have already done some research into it incase it ever happens. Then see what he says. Of course this is all best to say if you have actually thought of these things so then you wouldnt really be lying. grin
