Oh I get it. She was supposed to barely graduate high school. Get her claws into a man. Marry him and drain him of everything he has. Divorce him and demand he continue to provide for her. Move on to the next chump and repeat the process over and over again.
You don't even know this woman and you have branded her as a controlling bitch and you're calling me naive?
I will not dispute your observation that women use serial marriages to gain wealth. Our "successful" 32-year old executive would be even more capable of executing this strategy than some woman who has barely made it out of the trailer park. Imagine what caliber of attorney she could afford. Not that she would need a very good one, since the legal system is stacked against men in a divorce.
Most freepers have an obsession with rooting out the truth. Let's take take another look at our young executive's lament:
Dear Amy: I'd like to be in a relationship again, but I never even get asked out (unless you count frisky 85-year-olds and drunks at the corner bar). I'm a 32-year-old woman who's happy, sociable, and attractive. (I paid for college by modeling and continue to take care of myself.) I'm second-in-command at a big company, financially secure, and own a beautiful home. How can I meet men in general, and more specifically, men I'd actually want to date?
She states she is 32 years old and is second in command at a big company. I have worked for large (fortune 500) companies and have never seen a VP under the age of fifty. A little young to be "second in command". Also, VP's of "big companies" don't refer to themselves as "second in command at a big company". They just don't use this simplistic, immature verbiage. I conclude she is exaggerating her position in the company and the actual size of the company. I'd say she is more likely a manager in a retail establishment, if in management at all.
Our 32-year old "executive" states she is happy, sociable, and attractive. She wants us to believe she is well adjusted and beautiful. Well adjusted, attractive people have no difficulty finding a mate. Any executive has access to hundreds, if not thousands of other similar people via professional and trade organizations and blogs. She can't find a man here? I'm seriously beginning to doubt her bona fides.
She goes on to state that she is financially secure, and owns a beautiful home. She wants us to believe she is wealthy. She wants us to ask the question: Why don't men want me? Financial security is mostly in the eyes of the beholder. Let's see her mortgage payment.
Lastly, I make an observation about all the people I know in senior management of large corporations: They do not have the word "can't" in their vocabulary". Our little executive is a whining defeatist.
There is too much smell coming from her story. I think this person is just pissed off that she can't find a man and unwilling to face the real problem. She can find it by looking in the mirror. Every day.
