Message: [QUOTE="fletchdad, post: 1790956, member: 65205"] I just want to add that money influences relationship. DO NOT make the mistake of thinking this is not true. I have seen it and experienced it. It is a reality. You can only live for so long on love. Young people often think (and not so young) that the love will pull us through. Believe me, the daily life will intervene. You can work things out, but they will need to be worked out if money becomes an issue. Just consider that. I have seen happy couples fall on hard time and buckle under the pressure. It doesent have to go bad, but you have to be STRONG together to weather the hard time. And this strength is not a given, but must be achieved over years of being together. And I have seen resentment when one partner does all the work and earning. Like I said, it doesent have to be that way, but it often is. [/QUOTE]
