VERY true! Unfortunately, yuppie metrosexual douchebags usually don't find that out until it is too late. They get involved with sweet little Lei Chen because they think she isn't as bossy or obsessed with her career. Then, slowly but surely, they see all of their disposable income going towards buying Manolo Blahniks for little Ms. Chen. I've seen it happen to friends of mine.
Its rough out here for a single guy, which is why I am lucky to have found someone that is neither a gold digger, a careerist, or American. :)
