“Marrying Down” Benefits Men But Hurts Women

<p>When I entered back into the datingsphere after my divorce, I struggled to find a quality relationship. No, really. It was a well-chronicled hellscape. Routinely, men would tell me that the reason I wasn&rsquo;t finding an amazing long-lasting relationship was that I was looking for the wrong guy.</p> <p>They recommended that I stop looking for a man who made six figures (a attribute I never mentioned) and start going out with the &ldquo;average guy,&rdquo; maybe blue collar, who was nice but made a modest income. The problem? I myself was making just under six figures and it wasn&rsquo;t long before I passed that threshold.</p> <p><a href="https://vanessatorre.medium.com/marrying-down-benefits-men-but-hurts-women-19658521635e"><strong>Website</strong></a></p>
