What's up with the "How much money does your husband make?"...

...for a pick-up line? Mrs. DTW gets hit on regularly in her line of work and she says she's hears that tired old line about a thousand times a year. Is that all they can bring to the table anymore? No wonder I don't sweat the so-called "competition" out there.

BTW - Her ex made double what I make.

I need to read the headline better sometimes.

in Michigan when I was a twenty something... they evaluated potential dates on their "EP" - 'earning potential'. Granted I think that was more a twist on the old 'MRS' degree charges folks said in college (women attending solely to meet and marry a guy with financial potential) and what your wife hears is a varient of that.

..."I got a 4-wheel drive and two JetSkis", real impressive huh?

heh. As in... dude is seriously overworking his attempts to get my attention - time to try to get out of this conversation asap!

(usually the same people who assoicate a woman's worth with the way she looks).

It's nice that you and your wife are more evolved that that. :thumbsup:

Mrs. DTW and I are both organ donors too. I always say: "What a way to recycle" :)

:thumbsup: :thumbsup:

Thanks in advance to you and your wife!

a little clandestine action.
Don't those idiots realize that there are many women already married to rich pigs, and those women often have a thing going with a gardener, pool boy, fitness attendant, or other low paid fellow?

I'd be insulted if anyone asked me how much Call Me Wesley makes.

It belittles your wife by suggesting that she "needs" a man to support her and that this would be her primary attraction to you or any would-be suitors. Get me a bucket. :puke:

...hit on. She's had to file two sexual harassment complaints against co-workers in the last seven years and she will not deliver to a client whose employees get a little too overzealous.

She loves what she does and refuses to let a bunch, not a few idiots make her change jobs.

They have asked how much I make, but not my husband.

Isn't that more disturbing than the line that they use? Which granted is lame.

in the workforce. It's happened to me and many of the professional women I know. It's embarrassing and very unprofessional.

But when you get right down to it, they're poor excuses for men, some are even worse excuses for husbands, yes, some of them are married, but like I said above, my wife loves what she does and she has no plans of changing jobs.
I also dated a Hooter girl one time. She said the same thing happened to her so dudes...some women are just trying to do their job and another thing that's pathetic...

When woman and a girlfriend of hers want to have a drink together and chat after work before going home and being attacked by their kids, why do guys at the bar always think they come there to see them and interrupt their conversation and ruin their main reason for being there? Leave them alone. When they want your attention they will let you know. It always worked that way for me.
