And by dating only guys who earn less than you, aren't you discriminating? Not every guy who earns more than you will cheat or be an asshole. Take each guy as they are, not what they have in their wallet.
Well, a lot of my female friends also don't date guys who hit on them if the guys are successful because they feel intimidated and feel like they have a "better chance" of a guy being more faithful if he isn't too ambitious. I know lots of guys complain that women are gold diggers and such but I know women who are actually AFRAID of even moderately successful guys.

I think that if you date someone broke with no ambition you will always have to support them financially and it's going to be a life long burden, but I guess that's the price you pay for having someone be faithful to you. I guess you can pick, do you want someone with goals in life that's gonna cheat on you? Or do you want someone with no ambition who's going to be faithful?

I know I can always take care of myself so I pick the person who is more likely to be faithful.

If I wanted to go somewhere where my broke partner couldn't afford to go I would have to pay for them. That's the price to pay for someone being faithful. I know my way of thinking is "unhealthy" and all that, but that's how I really feel.
