Are guys intimidated by rich girls?

Are guys intimidated by rich girls (by that, I mean girls whose families are wealthy)?

I know that men care less than women about wealth, but I also know that they are sometimes intimidated by successful women. Hehe share your thoughts.

When i was young. like highschool & college days.. i admit that i'm guilty.
can't figure out kung intimidated ako. yung feeling mo na mas marami siyang ma i ooffer sayo at ikaw hanggang dun ka lang.. maybe it's the ego. after so many years of being exposed to a different kind of human being and multiple types of adversities. i finally figured it out kung bakit ako na iintimidate sa mga mayayaman na babae. it's because i am insecure.. intimidation starts from insecurity in some point.



so my answer is "YES" i was being intimidated by these type of girls BEFORE..
now if you gonna ask me how i overcome it. then this thread might go a long way... hahha

I wouldn't say intimidated ako sa girls who came from wealthy families since I came from a privileged family as well and alam kong hindi naman masusukat ang pagkatao mo dun. more often than not, I get turned off with girls from rich families kasi most of them are spoiled and have entitlement issues, not street smart and dependent on maids/drivers (basing on my own peers, cousins and sisters), mahirap din sila makuntento and they expect to be treated like princesses na hindi mo man lang mapag-commute or mapakain sa carinderia, I mean who wants that?
besides...hindi naman nila yun pera at sa mga magulang nila which is why I don't think they're better than me.

So I really don't care about the girl's family background basta down to earth dapat siya kapag kasama niya ako. Siguro I would be a tad bit insecure pa with girls who are really successful with  their own businesses, pero ok na rin yun para siya gumastos para sa akin...hahaha, pero seriously I don't think I'd get easily intimidated not unless I find the girl really really hot

[akthung]

if she's yours, she's yours. if the inlaws favor you. good. if not, yun! ang fear mo. hehe.

criticisms and differences will always be there naman. nasa pag dala na siguro yan.

^^medyo na-ouch ako doon sa dependent sa maids/drivers. Pero hindi naman ako feeling prinsesa and mas lalong hindi ako spoiled. I can say because of good parenting, bnbrief or ineexpose din kami sa real world. Hindi nga lang sa pagcommute... Ewan ko ba, praning ang mga magulang ko. (Wait lang, parang inamin ko na ako yung rich girl dito.. Haha I don't claim I'm rich in real life pero since anon naman ako dito, sige sabihin ko na din I came from a privileged family. )

Anyway, do you think it's inappropriate to buy expensive things for the guy? Hindi pa mag-asawa ha. Hindi kasi sa gusto ko magyabang, parang innate lang? A lot of my friends are telling me to stop it cause it's unnecessary.

[justhisgirl]

^^^P.S. na-ouch din pala ako sa really really hot. Hahaha I kid. (Half meant)

If it's your own hard earned money, bahala ka. pero preferably hindi pa rin especially kung alam mong hindi ganun kayaman yung guy...gumagawa ka lang ng pwedeng pag-awayan nyo, your friends just want to caution you. even for a guy it's not ok to give expensive gifts/or any type of gift early on especially if hindi pa nagpuput-out yung girl

kung galing sa allowance mo, definitely not

[justhisgirl]

^oh alright I guess I have to start giving less expensive gifts this Christmas. Haha. Pero what do you mean by saying na gunagawa lang ako ng pwedeng pag-awayan?

[insanelypurpleprincess]

IMO, it depends on how a guy has been brought up. I do know of certain men who are not necessarily intimated by RK girls, however, they are allergic to these types because they have stereotyped them to be spoiled, feeling entitled and up to a certain extent 'matapobre' (so kanya kanya lang talaga).

We're quite blessed, so I have noticed that certain people will feel a little awkward from the get go thinking that it's such a big deal if they invite you to join them to eat out.. usually they would caution you by saying, 'hey, sa carenderia lang kami ha?' and I'd be like, I don't mind.

Bottom line is... financial status is a factor that men look at when finding a mate, again.. IMO

[TuscanSun]

im not sure if it is intimidation, but guys can be weary of rich girls because of the challenges that go with them. example would be the cost of dating them and the expectation of her family.

baka kasi mapressure din siya na bigyan ka ng expensive gift din, tapos siyempre mahihiya yun na siya yung guy tapos yung girl yung nagsspoil sakanya...mahurt pa ego nun at mag-argue pa kayo

[budzwhiz]

Nasa pagdadala rin kase ng babae yan. I agree, there are plenty of rich girls na papasok palang sa room, kita mo na ang rich kid, spoiled matapobre aura.

My boyfriend said nung una hanggang tingin lang daw sya sakin. I guess hindi siguro magiging kami kung hindi na rin dahil sa ugali ko.

Also, a guy friend na nakilala ko sa training ko, nung una sobrang tahimik nya talaga sa kin. He never talks to me. Nung naging close na kami tinanong ko sya kung bat ang sungit nya sakin, he said akala nya daw kasi lahat ng mayayaman matapobre. Hehe it makes me happy, it really does, kapag naririnig ko to from people na nakikilala ko. Hindi daw ako mahirap pakisamahan katulad ng iba from well-off families.

May I add na malaki rin ang pinagkaiba ng most city rich kids from those na laking probinsya. I don't mean to generalize ha. Pero mas sheltered talaga pag raised sa metro. Sorry pero pet peeve ko talaga yung mejo walang alam sa mundo, typical conyo kid. Nung college ako people would always ask me where I was from. Pag sinabi ko yung lugar, sila e parang 'san yun?' Hahaha seriously?
Oops no offense.

yup, like yung tatawid na lang ng kalsada kelangan pa ng kasama...like seriously?!

[justhisgirl]

^^hala hindi kaya tayo magkapamilya? Hahahaha sobrang same sentiments.

[Pink_Sugar]

Paano yung style rich kid lang pero hindi talaga? alam ko madaming ganyan. Lol

[justhisgirl]

^What do you mean? Parang nagppretend lang na rich kid? What for?

[minatay91]

i think sugar meant rich and pasosyal looking girls pero fake, class d, drowning in debt ... ek ek pa.feeling and looking rich ang peg ..

IDK the right term for it but alam ko hesitant yung mga regular na lalake mag.approach or ask out ng rich girl.. dili pwede basta2 kahit pasimple yung girl kase alam mo naman ang totoo. i personally know a guy who literally starves himself to save money just to take his gf to nice restaurants. well, problema na niya yun. hihi

ewan if many guys feel the same way but kahit mabait ang girl and simple lang but nahiya sila dalhin ang girl sa cheap place kase parang out of place or di bagay sa kanya.. or mahiya sila na yun lang ang kaya nila..

I know rin a lot of girls who are struggling (rich *own finances ito ha*, sexy,pretty and smart) .. then pasimple but malaman mo talaga na rich sila by the way they talk (and i dont mean that in a conyo way) and the way they act, look and carry themselves and nahihirapan sila humanap ng lalake na ka.age nila (20-26) hehe sabi ko sa kanila baka DOM lang ang may kaya sa kanila

[no736]

coming from a guy here, na hindi mayaman, sa probinsya lumaki at sa maynila nag-kolehiyo at nagtrabaho...

my answer is yes.

siguro dahil na din sa kinalakihan na community. sa probinsya namen ang mayayaman, hindi masyado masyado nakikisalamuha sa hindi mayayaman hehe..

so parang nandun na yung mentality na, ay snob yan mayaman e. parang ganun. that they wouldn't have any interest on mingling with people not of their class, ganun yung dating sa aming mga hindi mayayaman.

not to offend anyone here, but i'm just being honest with what i think and i'm just sharing my opinion as asked by the TS.

now i'm working, nabawasan naman yung ganun, as i get to work with well off people and know them personally, and ofcourse i matured. pero parang meron pa din, but i just do not care. we're just the same being living our lives, contemplating on our mission in life, looking for life's meaning. 

[stebsy]

Sorry tamad ako mag back read. I've read some though.

Rich girl din naman ako pero di ako ugaling pasosyal. Chos! Hahaha!

Kidding aside, I think it depends sa attitude ng RICH girl. There are girls who are raised well. They mingle with all sorts of people tapos low profile din sila. Meron din princess Diana ang peg. Aura nila ay bigtime talaga but then they are very approachable.

And of course the rich brat girls na mayayaman ang parents pero squatters ang ugali ng anak.
 And the girls that they think acting sosyal, high and mighty with a dash of damsel-in-distress attitude is cute.

Oh well nakakaintimidate lang pag mangungutang ka sa kanila hahaha!

[instacore]

ok lang naman siguro pero depende sa tao..sa iba very big issue e..
