Is A Lack Of Ambition A Turn Off For Men?

Is A Lack Of Ambition A Turn Off For Men?

It isn’t.

Ambition in a partner is usually more of a quality that women look for in men.

For men, ambition is not anywhere near as high a requirement in who they want to date, as it is for women.

Basically, a man’s expectation is that a woman isn’t a complete slouch who has no impulse control over her spending, nor any financial responsibility, keeping herself in constant debt.

That’s really it for most men.

He wants a woman to be somewhere in the middle as far as ambition is concerned.

In other words, he doesn’t want to date a woman who is a complete slouch with bad spending habits and no financial responsibility, and he doesn’t what the other extreme, a woman with too much ambition.

A woman with too much ambition is too fixated on her career and earning power.

This worries a lot of men.

A woman who is more ambitious than him, ends up climbing the corporate ladder of her career, consequently making more money than him and becoming the breadwinner in the home.

This is where he gets scared about losing his value as a man to this woman, and to society at large.

With this in mind, your lack of ambition isn’t much of a liability or turn off, given that the majority of men in society also lack ambition.

In the end, all you have to do is either fall somewhere in the middle of the spectrum, or just have less ambition than the average man, which is already on the low end.

Almost every man.

Where a lack of ambition hampers your ability to attract men is when you are dealing with men who want to date a woman who takes care of them.

Something tells me you aren’t looking to attract men like this.
