An in social status, I mean everything.

If they were rich or poor, if they belonged to a clique you dislike,
if they were a "loner" or left out, etc.

Is social status important to you?
How would it affect your judgment or views on a person?
Would you date or not date due to their status?

Be honest~

you're my better half. february 14, 2009.

No, it wouldn't matter.

but yes their social status WOULD affect my judgement on them. But any preconceived perceptions/generalizations I have about them can easily be molded as I get to know them more. :]

ie. If he was from a rich family and seems to get everything he wants, I would think he was a spoiled brat. But it doesn't mean I'm not gonna give him a chance cause of that. I'll let him prove otherwise.

Nope, I don't think I'd really care, as long as I like their personality. With that being said, I'm into funny/outgoing guys, so it's rather rare for those types to be a loner.. A friend of mine didn't want to date this guy because he's a nerd though... she thought it'll be embarrasing to be seen with him.

As for rich/poor. Well, when I first dated my boyfriend, he barely made any money. Around 200 a week? I didn't mind though, because I cared more about his personality... But now, he's making mini cooperload of money, so I'm glad I didn't care about his money in the first place, haha.

I wouldn't normally care but if they were a total loner or something, I would think twice because there would be a reason why they're such a loner and I may not know that reason...it could be something bad that they've done? who knows xD But if it's just people being mean and leaving them out, I don't care about it.

Life is your personal boat -- you can make it sink or float.

I would not.
And frankly, the ones who would, are flat out stupid. You should never judge a person after his/her social status. I mean, if their parents are poor, doesn't mean they will turn out the same, if their parents are rich, wouldn't make them snobs, if they are loners, it could easily be that they're just shy, if they're popular, wouldn't make them a slut/idiot.


When it comes to myself, I would not judge anyone after their social status, but after their personality.

To be honest, at this age [I'm 18], no.
but more than likely when I get older and want marriage.
I'm not gonna settle (that means date too) with someone I have to support or can't support me mellow.gif

Dating, probably not. I wouldn't really mind.
But marriage, on the other hand...I'd have to think about this for some time. I wouldn't want to spend my life with a guy who's struggling economically. It wouldn't matter if he's a certain stereotype, however. Social status is wack most of the time.

Not really...I mean at my age right now, theres no need to have a rich guy haha.
I mean I hate cliques and all that and I like diff. people so I don't really mind if they're from a different social status.
If they're nice people and can hold a nice conversation and treat me with with proper care...I think thats enough for 'dating'.

Marriage is a diff. story because financial status becomes a big part of the relationship.

Social status really wouldn't matter to me that much. But if she's a loner? I'd encourage her to make friends.

although i agree it just feels more secure if they are at least the same social status as you mellow.gif
cliques dont make a difference to me though.

hjahahaha i dont think everyone here is being reli honest...cuz from what i see in the real world...reality checks in and most chicks onli dig guys they know have car, money, dads rich. sorry bout that but this is the reality I see. im not talking about everyone but just MOST people, especially girls and such. this habit goes onto its twenties when girls start to look for guys with some social status (money, car, house, can provide for her) and of course, the guys profession. how many girls i know go for the doctors and what nots. in the end, its money that ability to provide for the girl that counts, doenst reli matter about personality...i guess theres nothing wrong for a woman to want to find a man that can provide for her...but there are mot many girls who are the 'i only look at personality' type...this IS reality and its true, girls will dig into a guy wif a strong personality, but tell me, how many of these types of guys are there in 10 dudes.? probably 1 or 2. in the end rich guys win 1st, personalities dont matter. thats just my 2 cents.
I say guns are better than wives. Why? Cause u can put silencers on guns. HAHA!!!!~

Yes it would. I don't give a damn about the money they have, I'd even respect them more if they know how hard it is to make a dollar and that they understand the true value of money.

I wouldn't date a guy who throws money around for fun, nor will I date a guy who feels he has to go shopping for Rocks or True Religions every week just to prove his status. I wouldn't date a guy who hangs out with people who does drugs, smoke, or drink because that's not what I find morally accepting. I wouldn't go out with a guy who was a total stud with the girls and who is a popular wanna be freak because after high school, you'll just start back to being a nobody and no one will care what you did and no one gives a crap about who you are. And those people will fade away.

If he was a loner, I wouldn't care either. I'm a loner because I refuse to make friends with the overwhelming amount of fake idiots at my school nor will I party with any of them. There are always reasons as to why you're a loner.

The only offensive thing I have to say is I won't date a completely ugly nerd who floods and thinks he has an answer to everything. That's just me. Am I starting to go off topic? mellow.gif

Personally this doesn't matter to me. I mean if they just flaunt money around and and think that they're the mini cooper just because they have lots of it then that is a different story. Other than that rich and poor doesn't matter to me. As for if they are popular or a loner I wouldn't care period.

I would care about everything except the social status such as being a loner, etc ...
That is not a big deal, you can always help them make friends, etc ... smile.gif
Anyways if you like someone, why does their "social status" matter?
If you really like them, you should help them xD
