I dunno, it's the talk about passion and prenups in one breath. They sound so incongruent together to me.

Passion doesn't necessarily have to do anything with marriage either. I saw people loosing a lot because the other half wasn't as genuine and caring as they thought when things turned sour.
I like to share my life and look after someone in every sense, but that doesn't mean that if love ends, one person can walk away with something the other person worked for or got even before they met.

I think my perhaps my world is different and I want something different. Maybe I don't understand what people are referring to when they talk of 'passion'. Maybe my passions are different.

Jac-nothing "off" about this thread-I started it and talked how I could never sacrifice feeling passion/love, to be with a man simply for the/his money and/or security.
Someone mentioned a prenup in their response, and I simply agreed, more as a joke, as my ex got a good chunk of my retirement fund in our divorce.
You know off things can get off-topic in the threads....and I'm OK with that-makes things interesting :)
I hope this helps clear things up for you pretty lady

peachmelba: ah thankyou lady lori think your the classy one....even tho it was a joint decision by the two of us it still didnt make things any easier and it takes time for things to heal but I've learnt now that it made me grow in myself,but took a few years to get back on my feet emotionally,yes he is the father of my two children and he is the one that left the family home,so I got the dog, two kids and home we joint share but it's mine really only in his name as joint ownership,all is good now and I suppose that's because we respect each other and have both moved on,.you are a lovely lady and yes take a vacation.
Thanks sweetie and it seems you, like me, took ample time to heal....smart move! Moving on & enjoying life & having eyes wide open helps when seeking new love
Something tells me we will both be OK!

LadyLori: We've all seen the movies, heard the stories or maybe even know a person or two, who has married someone for their money and/or security.
There is no way I could do that. I am a firm believer in one needs passion/love in their life, and I could never give that up, simply to be "taken care of".
I take pride in earning my way in life, but I am also a very passionate/loving woman, so could never give that up.
Could you? Or have you personally known someone who did?

In my marriage and any relationship I have entered into has never been about money so suffice it to say, I choose love over money hands down. My marriage and one other relationship was a shared venture when it came to finances as we both worked and had joint bank accounts. It was never a matter of this is mine and that is yours. I simply don't operate that way.

truheart1941: no I would,nt......money can do lots of things...but cuddling a cheque book......doesent compare. with someone you love....to cuddle.......no doubt ...some will read this...and poo.hoo it...but who cares.....that's them....and I am me.......
I don't think there's anything "poo poo" about your comment....it takes a stronger man to show his tender side than the opposite, so thanks for sharing

I'm a romantic on a personal, political and philosophical level, but I still know that romance is not more fundamental than survival. And many men and women settle as they come to realise that they don't have the value to warrant their romantic ambitions.
Would people sacrifice passion and love for security? Well, they're never more than 3 meals away from gutting their nextdoor neighbour for a loaf of bread. I can tell the people on here have never known what hunger is. This answers the question.

bungallow55: I like the way you think.
Thank you...it's the way I was raised. Old school way of going about it perhaps but it seemed to work for my parents and if it ain't broke, don't fix it.

I'm sure there's a handful like that here, just as in "real life", but I don't automatically think everyone is like that, so I don't concentrate on those faults.
And I know I'm not perfect-who is? But I do know I'm not a cheat, nor do I lie and I'm certainly not a gold digger....I am financially set, so don't need a man to take care of me via: his wallet...just looking for someone to tend to my heart!

Yikes
That's a whole different perspective than I wasn't even considering!However, I've always been a romantic person and always will be. But as I've matured, I consider myself a "realistic romantic"....
