How can I tell a girl that I want to marry her for financial reasons and not for love because love isn't real, and I don't want to lie? We do enjoy each other's company, and would prosper financially if we were partners.

Is this just a way of saying you don't believe in love?.......if not just ask her to marry you, and have a terrible loveless life in the future, if that's what you want.
-
If she is the kind of person who respects and values the potentially beneficial financial aspects, you could explain it to her just as you did here. If she is in it for love, you will likely not get a favorable response. Asking her how she feels about a pre-nuptual agreement is key in brooching the subject. But wait a few years and I will marry you in a financially prosperous union...I married the first time for love and I keep telling my husband that next time I am going to marry for money :o)

Wow. Well, that's probably more of a beginning of a relationship type thing. The only thing you can do is come out and say it, but try to explain your side first. I wouldn't expect a very good response though.

Just say lets be straight about this i do not fancy YOU but financially you look sound and we will rub along well together if you want to be rich. Lets join our finances and go for it. Why bother with the romantic bit ,she will soon find out otherwise if you lie

Like that.A real love has grown from less.

I think that you need to tell her this ASAP, and tell her in the same way you told us. I think you should plan on being single for a long time. All women have dreamed of the moment that a man will propose marriage to her for practical reasons, especially financial reasons. It explains the popularity of "Marry Him For His Money Barbie" and "Gettin' Hitched For Financial Solvency Ken". Everyone knows that women look forward to Valentine's Day as a way to celebrate the balance in their bank account. In fact, that is the origin of the "See Your Financial Advisor on Feb 14th" tradition.

well after you tell her if she has any self esteem, she will run you off. unless she feels the same way about you and has no feelings at all. then you could live happily ever after like Hillary and Bill. so just go tell her.

ahhhh...CD...I've come to think of you as a pretty cool guy...but darlin...this idea SUCKS ROCKS! Real love can get you through just about any thing life can toss at your head. It can last through sorrow, poverty, illness, joyful times, successful times, and good health...it can sometimes even transcend death in the memory of those left behind. Money is great for paying bills, buying food, even for giving presents of all different types and costs. But it won't hold you close when you cry for the loss of someone you DO LOVE, it won't rub your back when it aches. Money won't give a damn if you just lost your job, your house, your best friend or your dog. It won't cook you dinner, or your favorite meal, a birthday cake, or fix you a drink when you are thirsty. Money won't laugh at your jokes, make love to you tenderly or wildly...it won't give a rats azz about you, because it isn't alive. Look for someone you can LOVE and together take the best care of each other you can. Money is wonderful to have...but you can't take it with you.

Perhaps tell her you should be business partners? Or if you want marriage, have a pre-nup that reflects your financial beliefs etc. I guess it's not that unusual yo want to marry someone for financial reasons - there I said it! Whilst love, lust etc will help sustain the marriage, it's not that weird a concept to marry for a reason aside from love or lust. However, when you tell her, be prepared for a less than pleasing response.
-
I know how you can tell her. Say " I'm a huge asshole and I value you only for your money and that you should just dump me right now and get yourself a real man."
-
If you are friends with her, she likely already knows what you believe about love, so explain your reason for wanting to marry her. I give you points for not wanting to lie to her, as it would be easier to lie and say you loved her.
-
sorry my response is not an answer to your question but i couldn't help from thinking -what if you loose all your finances. It can happen. lets say you get to marry her only for money and later on in life, some mishap occurs and you loose it. isn't it love that keeps it together when u have lost everything?
-
Well just tell her what you told us 'i want to marry you for financial reasons and not for love, because i don't believe in love'. See what she says, she can only say no.

Long distance

iD SAY TAKE HER TO THE SAME SP0T WHERE YOU FIRST ASKED HER OUT THEN ASK HER TO MARRY YOU..OR IF SHE GETS HOME AFTER YOU COOK A GOOD DINNER (( OR CHEAT AND ORDER )) THEN WHEN SHE GETS HOME TALK SWEET TO HER AND EXPLAIN TO HER WHY YOU LOVE HER SO MUCH, HOW SHE MAKES YOU HEART SKIPS BEATS AND HOW NO MATTER HOW BAD YOUR DAY WAS WHEN YOU SEE HER YOUR THE HAPPIEST PERSON IN THE WORLD ...AND SO ON THE TELL HER I LOVE YOU SO MUCH THAT I WANT TO ASK YOU SOMETHING..GET ON YOUR ONE KNEE AND ASK HER WILL SHE MARRY YOU.
