3. He’s a Bad Tipper
A guy leaving a nice tip on a date, to me, is a lot like a girl wearing mascara. Especially in the beginning stages of a relationship, it’s not even a question…you’re going to do it. Sure this isn’t going to be the only thing that your blossoming relationship depends on, and perhaps the other person might not even notice, but the fact remains, you put forth your best effort to make the best impression on the other person. Guys lead with money, girls lead with looks. Simple as that. So while when a girl doesn’t have nice eyelashes it sends off the signal that she is either ugly or lazy, when a guy leaves a bad tip we are left to believe he is either cheap or poor. Neither of those are conducive to the type of lifestyle I’m accustomed to living. Frugality may be an asset to some extent (it’s nice to know one of you has money managing skills) but counting dollars and cents is not. And not for one second in your life should you feel guilty about wanting a man with money. If you’re a career woman, it’s just straight up humiliating if you make more than he does, and you can’t go to nice places because he can’t afford it and feels emasculated if you pay. If you plan to be a stay-at-home mom, then OBVIOUSLY you need someone who makes enough money to support your family. It’s not gold-digging. It’s just smart.
