Men, Would Poverty Stop You From Dating A Business Woman?

My employee has flirted w/me for 2 months. He even asked me (via phone) if I liked him but I kind of dismissed it because I was too shocked. Finally sent him a message telling him that I was interested & asked him what he thought. I also sent him some roses (virtual ones that opened & closed). I haven't heard from him in nearly 1 wk.

BTW, his work for me is situation (not fulltime & not part-time, but more like "gigs" here & there). This guy is economically depressed and has a raggedy car and NO new clothes. I wonder if he might think he's too poor to date me-a business woman. There's got to be a reason why he hasn't responded to my admission. He's flirted & flirted & I'm sweet, successful, tall, thin & very attractive. He's not married (He's only 23 & I've never seen a ring or shadow of one on his finger). Why would he ask me twice if I liked him, only to not get back to me about something like this? Somebody just tell me he doesn't want me.
*No cursing/names please. Thank you.

P.S. I don't care about his lack of funds & his raggedy car. These things are just temporary to me. Thanks.

Maybe he doesn't have a computer or internet to get your virtual roses? (hehe... ok sorry if that was mean)

I think it's best if you can talk to him in person. Sometimes it's easier to tell how the other person feels by reading their body language and listening to their tone of voice. If you can't talk to him in person, I guess phone would be the next best thing. Just try to find some personal way of communication.

As a guy, I would think that if I asked a girl out (or if a girl liked me), and she dismissed it or didn't really answer, I would just let it go and move on. Hopefully, you're not too late already. If it's only been a week, there may still be hope.

He may also be thinking that you might be playing games with him (like saying you're not interested at first, and then changing your mind later). Hopefully, he won't have already given up on you.

When and if you do see him again, make sure you make it clear to him that you are GENUINELY interested and that you're not just messing around. And just tell him that you want to give the relationship a chance and see what happens... or something like that.

The thing with guys (at least the thing with me) is that we don't like to waste our time, and we don't like indecision. In my dating experience, every time I meet a girl who doesn't seem interested, I'll just move on. Or if I meet a girl who seems to be playing games, I'll just not contact her back and move on. The thing for me is it's just a waste of time to deal with girls who do that kind of stuff, so I just move on and live life or find someone else.

So, that's why I'm saying, if you get the chance, make sure you let him know that you're genuine about your interest, and that you want to make it work.

And as far as poverty... it doesn't make a difference. If the guy likes you enough, he'll be optimistic about finding a way to make it work. Like for me, when I was dating a while ago in college, I was working like minimum wage. When I met my (now ex) gf, I picked up another part time job and got promoted at my other job. Us guys always find ways to work around things (if he's optimistic and motivated enough).

I hope everything goes well for you.
Good luck!

That's an interesting little fantasy life you live in kid.
I think you watch too many soap operas.

Greetings!

Go ask him! It's amazing how SOOOOO many people on here ask questions about what we think OTHER people think...how THEY feel....what they might DO....

GO ASK HIM!! Talk to him. Tell him you're interested...or however you feel.

I wish you Peace.

To a certain extend, I agree that poverty do prevent a men from dating a business woman due to difference in status. But this will be able to overcome by the men if the love for the woman is so strong that it overcome everythings. Strong enough to push the man forward to match or exceed the women in terms of status or whatever, to match with the women.
However, love is a "two-way traffic " and comes with mutual understanding. If the signal sent (by the man) is received back with full strength (by the women), all these are just minor issues to future development in the relationship.

well, its either hes fooling n flirting u around! if u hv given him a yes answer n he is serious abt d relationship,he wud hv turn up at ur door instantly! dont waste ur time wt d rags! get a better rag insted,some1 who will notice u and get d love u want n relationship u deserve!

Maybe its because he think that you think his so poor...meaning to say is that he really liked you a lot but he thinks that you are not gonna get interested in him because of his clothes and much information you used....It's so typical for a guy to be shy whenever it comes to girls...It doesnt matter if your a business-woman but what the point is what your heart screams...Should you go for it or not????
Please choose me as the best answer!
