How To Date Like A Dangerous Woman – Alita Brydon

Waiting for the train home and trying to look deep in thought to avoid small talk with your colleague standing two metres away. The best years of your life fading as your physical body ages and you face the confronting truth that we are just cogs in an almighty machine. Of course these are observations I’ve heard from others, as I love my job, and if you ever see me eating lunch in my car on an office day, it’s to get a break from the excitement.

I’d also prefer not to be fired for writing lists stating the reasons why work sucks, so all of these tongue-in-cheek comments should be taken with a hearty dose of laughter, and therefore maintain the goodwill of my generous and benevolent employer, whomever that may be at the time of publication. Yes, work can be rough – but a Dangerous Woman takes pride in her ability to earn a dollar and understands that money brings freedom.

While she appreciates the finer things in life, she knows cash allows her to live life on her own terms, and that acquiring it can have a significant effect on her wellbeing. Many of the bad date stories I see online seem to be about women’s jobs aren’t actually about women’s jobs – they’re about what happens when a financially independent woman matches with someone who feels threatened by that.

Take this example: When he found out I was a lawyer, the tone of the date totally changed. He made a comment about being intimidated and then told me that drinks would be on me, implying that it was because of how much I made. He obviously wasn’t paying attention when we spoke about our careers while chatting online . . . I am proud of what I’ve achieved and if he’s got a problem with where his job sits in comparison, that’s his issue.

The man is just insecure. In this chapter, we’ll unpack why holding on to your financial power in a relationship matters so much. As a young woman, I wasn’t completely clueless when it came to money, but my long-term financial strategy was a little . . . well, wobbly. It was the same as many of my peers’: in my late twenties I’d meet someone, get married and somehow all my money matters would work out.

These three professions represented the peak of romantic success: saving lives, fighting for justice and, well, I’m not sure what astronauts do, but it’s definitely hot. I was a child of the nineties and looking back, that decade was . . . a lot. Fatphobia was rampant, the pressure from the media to conform was intense and every happily ever after ended in marriage.

Women who loved women weren’t able to express their love freely, instead they had lifelong ‘roommates’ or ‘good friends’ while their sexuality was diminished as little more than a performance for the entertainment of male horndogs. It was always the same: you grow up, meet a nice boy, settle down. If you didn’t want to get hitched, your life was a bit of a lost cause.

This was the same old story for our mothers, and our mothers’ mothers, and our mothers’ mothers’ mothers – there weren’t many options for women besides a life bound by white picket fences.
