Is it normal to believe that most men i date are after my money?

I'm not saying that all men out there are interested in money when it comes to relationships, but I really believe that the vast majority of them are. I have a 6 digit income, and I own a chain of restaurants I started from scratch. I used to be very occupied with work, but I started making more time for my personal life.

I dated quite a few men, and the trend I've seen is that the moment they know that I own my own business, have a 6 digit income, or anything along the lines of that their attitude towards me start to change. Most of them seem a lot more concerned in getting their " cut " of my business and my finances then fulfilling a relationship.

Again, I'm not saying that all men are like this, but it seems that the vast majority of them are quick to change objectives when there is a significant amount of money involved.

Is this normal?

    It would be normal to think that they might be after your money. It might be sensible to keep just how much money/what you do for a living to yourself for a while if possible (without feeling as though you're lying to them).

    Why not act like you havnt much money and if the relationship progresses to a point in which you like them and they like you when they think your poor you will know that they like you for you. you can say you work for your restaurants, you don't have to say you own them and keep your 6figure bank balance to yourself otherwise you will always think they like you for that

    Let's be honest, females are just the same as males when they find out the person they're dating has a lot of money, so don't assume only males do this.

    On point. Perhaps you shouldn't tell them full truths? Don't tell them lies, just tell them half truths. If they ask what you do for a living, tell them you work at a restraunt, not that you own them.
    Make sure the guy knows you for who you are, not who you are for your your money.

    This post is fake, no woman could start her own business, much less successfully run it and make a 6 figure income.

    Stop lying on here and get back in the kitchen to cook dinner.

    Why don't you get to know other successful entrepreneurs? Out of anyone, they are ones that should know how you feel.
