Hi guys! Quick question, do ladies care about a man's occupation? So the backstory is: I met this girl online and we hit it off right away. ButI tried to ask her out she told me that she likes my personality, but prefers dating a guy who works in the office. I think she said that it's because an office job sounds more "formal and stable"? I'm a system integrator, and personally I think it's a a quite decent job and I make enough money. Anyways, what are your thoughts?

The lady has politely dumped you mate...take a tip from me get you glad rags on go out and  talk to real people...in the old days it was referred to as socializing...you will enjoy it trust me.

Mmmmmmm...must be a sucker for punishment then!

But I doubt it as you never know the gender, orientation, status etc - but possibly it may improve the quality the posts?  Perhaps that's wishful thinking.

Don't give up !  Faint heart never won fair lady. Send her flowers and gifts. Tell her you love and adore her. Ask her to marry you. Promise her the earth and deliver it to her feet while giving her a toe job. That's what I say !

As for me, ladies don't care about man's occupation, because we have our own deals which must be solved and waste time for man's occupation is unlogical. 

I prefer communicating with some guys online. And this is really much interesting.

Before you asked her out did you ask her how much she charges? I mean you know like is it a 50 for a nifty or more? Did you get a picture of her? Because I do know someone that did much the same, years ago and in another country, we saw the picture and the lady was beautiful, when they did eventually meet it looked like Granny turned up.

Tell her you're Deputy Director and Head of Systems Integration.

Accidently mention that you don't know how the new guys manage of a quarter of your salary.

Pick her up in a classic Farrari and ask her if she would like to go to watch the Polo.

That was just a reason to get rid of you. Maybe she didn't like you, but she didn't want to tell you not to offend. This is not a good reason to turn down a boy, especially since you have a pretty good job and a good salary.

I would say it absolutely matters to a point. If you're working in fast food or as a waiter and trying to date a professional woman, she might not be into that. But as others have said, this was probably just an excuse in this case.
