Yes, Nostradamus we exist. You may not see as often because we’re self-sufficient and not out there looking for men for financial support and/or validation.
Marion, I agree with Taz, you cannot simultaneously play the independence and “old-fashioned” cards, they are logically inconsistent. While it is fair to expect a man to show his interest in you, your idea that this can only be accomplished by a display of financial means is shallow and superficial. The richest man in the world can still treat you lack crap, you’re using an inaccurate gauge of character.
