A person financial worth vs. personal feelings

ok, when I was younger i dated who ever i please, i did not really care if they have a house or apartment. Well that was then and now I look for more, in what a person suppose to have.

If you were talking to someone and you like this person and then you found out by accident that he/she is in financial distress. Would you still maintain an interest in this person or does their financial situation have an impact on your feelings towards them?

@10k, I ask for a serious answer and this is the response I get really!! hmmm. I guess for you then you don't expect someone to have their own place and such. I am not talking about those who look to others to support them, but I am asking a question, will this impact how you feel about a person.

I really don't care much about the financial worth of my partner. As long as we love each other and are ready to work things out together, why not?

10k, I'm going to buy your comment. I'll just find some very rich old man, marry him overnight, lay hands on his assets and then bury him the next day! What a joke!

we cannot choose, who we fall in love with, its like the people with a 60 choice wish list, that's an arrangement, and whatever chance you have with love, with the arrangement, you will never truly be happy, because you compromised yourself from the start.

@weepingmist, what if you have not fallen in love as yet, but you found out about her finances. Would that give you moment to pause and think things through?

i couldn't care less, if the poor girl was a pauper, if she loved me, and i loved her, that's all that matters to me, money never comes in to it, i love the simple things in life, so its never an issue.

No impact. If she correspond with my soul, we can move mountains together, be rich even if we wanna - but most likely we're not gonna stress the doe thing.

We're gonna dance instead.

ok, so I get that everyone will get with someone because they love that person; but I never said anything about loving the person, you have not reached that stage of the game of life yet.

Would you continue to try and know this person enough to offer your heart, or do you pause and look at the situation of how you will survive financially on just one salary?

Personally, I think I would proceed with caution; but hey that is just me.

oh, and do remember that financial problems is the number 1 reason for divorce, so it must have some kind of relevancy when thinking about entering into a relationship.

One income? That was standard 100y ago. Now we use a lot, too much spending. So im looking for a modest girl.

Rarediamond, I agree with you that the financial part usually can't be ignored. Simply because we still need money to live in this world. Also, at my age I think a hard-working man should have reached some level of financial stability.

@morgenluv, are you changing your mind now? hmm so finances does play a part in your way of thinking.

I am not saying that the person is not ever going to work, just currently they don't have it to support self and other.

@Ariel, yes I believe that finances is important after all we can't live on love alone

I can tell you that I married a colleague from University (we had just graduated) and we were almost poor, yes and in 1991 here in Eastern Europe things were upside down. And yes the financial issues contributed to our stress which didn't make us close but on the contrary.

some of the happiest people i ever knew, had nothing but each other, and that's the most important thing of all, negotiating relationships relative to income, is literally status related arrangements, and people in that bracket, never find real happiness, but they do find a business partner, to live with, sometimes people forget what simple love is, for many reasons.

While I believe that two working together can overcome most problems, (I used to believe in all problems, but life has taught me different), if there are financial issues, then it may be good to know as to the reasons why, and it also shows how open and honest one can be to a future partner..

Ok, i wasent clear enough:
"One income? That was standard 100y ago. Now we use a lot, too much spending. So im looking for a modest girl."
I meant it worked out on one income in the old days.
That can still be done, if we only are modest.
So with other words, as long as she don't drain my wallet on stupidety we can survive on what i earn. Therefore it matters nothing to me how her financials look. Only want her love and support, and i'll fix the rest.
We may for trat matter start som business together and i will lead that. And no, i will not whip here around, i'll do the main job if that will be the way it goes.

Agree totally with you Weeping!

What it looks like to me is that you have answered your own question! You have found a person you think you could fall in love with but they have no money or they lots of bills and you aren't interested so much now! It is best that you find the financially stable person you are looking for!

@edi, I started this blog because I am interested to know what others think. I have not found anyone in this situation, I however am that person currently without a permanent job. So please don't assume that you know the reason for my blog!!!!! Thanks.

@yash, I agree with you, it is best to know how they come to be in that financial predicament, so at least you know what you are getting yourself into and therefore better able to think things through and decide if this person is someone you can work with to build a future.
