I just found out my ex-wife got an awesome review a couple weeks ago in the chicago trib for a singing performance...that's a first, and is actually a huge relief because the split made it hard for her to pursue her career, which I always felt very guilty about (even tho I shouldn't have.)

Just look at it this way, you knew she was a whore back then and now it is confirmed.

It could have its advantages. I've usually gotten dumped for guys who were broke (and plenty who were employed only occasionally). I don't know that being dumped for someone poor is any better for the ego...but when they dump you for someone rich, at least they don't then ask to "borrow" money from you to pay for the wedding.

I'm not dwelling on my ex-gf but I was shocked a bit when I was told that she married someone wealthy.

As I stated earlier I think it's mostly an ego thing. I could never give her the things that her husband could give her. Not yet anyway.

honestly though, my mom raised me right apparently. I'm poor, but I don't mind. I have friends that I enjoy hanging out with, I have the few material posessions that matter to me or make my day easier. I love the outdoors and playin hoops and plenty of things that don't require me to be rich. I'd like a girl to love, and when it comes I'll be ready and enjoy it. All in all I don't think I have it that bad. Because there's millions of rich people out there who haven't had a day of what I have now in years, and they're miserable. Sure I'd like a nicer car, or something like that, but it's not important to me.

So live your life, and live it to enjoy it. If your ex values something like money over the person, then she's one of those miserable people I just mentioned. And if she genuinely likes this man, and would be with him even if he was poor, then kudos to her.

As for you, just live buddy, and don't worry about what you don't have. You probably have everything you need already.

You're correct, it IS an ego thing. Here's another ego wakeup for you: some young men are born into wealthy families with good DNA. My family had neither, although I've never had to worry about putting food on the table.

I know a number of young women (early 20s) who expect, in their early 20s, to live the same sort of lifestyle that their parents lead (who are in their mid 40s at earliest). They don't understand, or simply don't care, that their parents are at the highest earning potential of their careers, while these young women (or, in most cases, their husbands) are just starting out, and are earning the salary commensurate with their position and experience.

Of course, these young women, being too vapid or vain to get it, will spend their families into holes of debt which will take years to recover from. Or, of course, they can marry a rich guy, and spend him into oblivion until he's broke or until he kicks them to the curb.

Phew. Now that that's off my chest: forget about her, focus on bettering yourself and making yourself happy, and maybe, at your thirty-year high school reunion, someone will give a sh!t enough to compare you to her husband, and you'll be the better man.

With people having smaller and smaller families and spending so much money to rear and educate those few children that they do have, a lot of parents encourage daughters to not settle for just anybody. Think about it, if you're going to spend big bucks on orthodontists,dance lessons,piano, college,enrichment classes and the like are you going to be thrilled if your daughter runs off to live in poverty ? If yiou rear a daughter to expect the best you hope that she won't run off and cheapen herself by getting pregnant,quitting school or marrying the first guy that asks her.


Think about it,you guys want the best wife that the market will bear,a slim,trim gal with movie star clear skin and those perfectly straight teeth, you want her well educated and more and more these days you expect she'll be a big earner... young women are thinking the same things

Oh well. If she is happy then I'm happy.

Don't worry. I'll take good care of her. :D
