DATING AND MONEY

I just called Duma FM radio station to win a Fish and Chips ticket meal, and I managed to go through(its been my dream to call into radio and win something.....so finally!!!). Anyway after securing my win and giving all the relevant details they ask me if I would date someone who had a lower earning than mine. This was not a question I was expecting and the answer I gave kind of illustrated that. However the host was persistent and asked again so I said it would depend. And now that I think about it and really assess it, being a student and dating someone with an earning that is less than mine would just make things difficult and that is just the reality of it.And it leads me to ask; just what would he be doing earning less than P1400.00 and that is not a comforting thought because he would most probably be uneducated so much he qualifies only for odd jobs and honestly I need a person who can challenge me mentally, an equal or higher so that I am inspired to do and be more. Its nice that a guy who asks me out like me genuinely of course but a girl does like to be spoiled and taken out even for ice cream at the very least. Also I believe that dating has strata, in that you must ask a person out who is in your level or who is lower so that you appeal to them. Asking a girl out who has direction and climbing the financial and social ladder and you are working odd jobs is not going to make for a very sustainable relationship for almost all cases because then she has to kind of lower her status to accommodate you and no one can live an unauthentic life for very long and also I think one should be intimidated away from asking such a person out . Dating a guy with a higher earning at this juncture in my life I must admit would be awesome because I think if he wanted to, spoiling me would not be so difficult or headache inducing. The reality is as a student I can use all the help I can financially and on that note I saw a beautiful P400.00 bag at Milady's and I just wished for a cash injection; trying to figure out legit ways of making the money for that bag.
