"Gold-Digging thots" in novels/webtoons

[Ungrave]

I mean, I'd say the protagonist is justified in resenting them if they cheated on him. Also they have no reason to get back together with their ex after they were dumped. If either side causes problems for the other outside of disliking each other though, then whoever decided to escalate things is in the wrong. Not that I read novels like that since why would I read a novel about romance when VNs exist.

Fair enough. BUt in situations like these, for example, its often the result of the MC's lack of effort too, not just that the woman is a slut or gold digger.

I mean if the expect their BF to become rich then that's unreasonable. Sure. But in a lot of the cases I'VE seen that's not what the GF wants. They just want a comfortable lifestyle, not an extravagant one. And normally the MC is living in squalor...not even trying to get out of it, just maybe whining about it.

But yes. There's also a lot of cases where they ARE just gold diggers and where the MC isn't poor, just average. So those kinda women are more unlikable. Im just saying lets treat each case in the way they deserve. Not treat them all the same. Thats what i do, at least.Dunno why so many cant do the same

I'm not for cheating in any case, but being a slut/whore is delightful as long as you're honest about it.

Personally, I'd like to marry a bunch of minimum wage guys who pool their money together so we can live together in a mansion where all the rooms are occupied. I'll have a huge kitchen and cook for all of my husbands, and my husbands will take turns cleaning the kitchen. We'll have an automatic dishwasher to make things easier.

Never dismiss the work a person does in the home. Many people succeed in the workplace because they have a partner taking care of things around the house. Some women have chip on their shoulder about being expected to perform the traditional female role of working within the home, but since I grew up with my dad fulfilling that role, I don't have a chip on my shoulder about it. It's a valuable contribution to the household no matter who does it.

I genuinely mean that I don't need loads of money to be happy as long as we have enough to get by. My parents taught me superb budgeting skills.
The Kaiba brothers, on the other hand . . . *drool*
Money aside, the REAL reason why Seto Kaiba is attractive is that he seized Gozaburo Kaiba's weapons company and turned it into a game company. He was sexy from the moment I first saw him, but knowing that part of his backstory is when I actually fell in love. Make games, not war!
