Sw3etdev1L Posted May 9, 2011 Share Posted May 9, 2011 I have my profession, he's got his profession.... I am working for a social service where I don't get paid.. the government demands me to ... I''m 26, he is 31.. and it seems he already wants to get married, have a home, family... He says he will have money one day because he is ambitious and stuff... truth is he doesn't have money to pay an apartment yet.. at least that's what he says.. After I finish working here, I am going to do my masters degree... My question is... Without the romantic view... How important is money to a person?... to his happiness?... There is a phrase in Mexico which says... "Cuando el dinero se va el amor se va por la ventana"... it says that when money leaves a couple and they got responsabilities, love goes out the window.....because the couple stress out, and react diffferently under that stress factor, they might act not that lovingly... How really is money important to ones happiness..because I think... until some point is not that important, and until some point it is.. I know money is not all, but until what point is money a dealbreaker between a man and a woman? and a succesful relationship?..... I know of a story of a woman who got married, she worked, he worked... they got married, and after having a son and a daughter... she had a good lifestyle... I mean, no luxuries... but they did have everything... and after her son and daughter got married... she said "I'm fed up" of not travellling, not having Things... and she married another man, even if she had all this life with this other man, just because the other man was millionaire and this one not.. And her daughter and son got so angry to her mother, they said she was shallow and etc... but, I mean... after a while, she got fed up and searched for another lifestyle... and some people might say she is shallow and stuff... but, lacking things all the time ..... is not that fun. So, .....¿love? How do you know... you are happy, and he is happy... and if he will be happy and you will be happy with him , that way always... even without lacking things... ? money changes people.. Well, it is just a story, what is ur view on this Link to post Share on other sites
