You're good at dealing it out jem. I wasn't talking about your parents, but you can put words into my mouth. I'm just seeing it as I see it. I could use that argument with whoever I end up with, ummmmm, can't share my stash or income in case you are a loser, gambler, dreamer, not frugal etc, etc... But if you play your cards right, I may give you a bonus though if you play your cards right. gimme a break! I personally do not see a relationship built on a lack of trust going very far at all.
And this is why we're both single still? Seems you have high standards too, or you would have been hitched up already seeing as you're in a lot more social situations than I am.
now of a couple who were so untrusting of the other person that they eventually started holidaying on their own, had their own secret stashes and the guy had a storage container at a mates that he would buy a new lot of goodies - tools, stereos, etc... one day his wife found out about it and that was the end of their relationship. It's really no way to live your life in fear of your partners financial prowess. You're not allowing your body, spirit and being the chance to merge with your new partner and watch the resultant action blossom like it should. Anyway, are you saying you're only going to go out with a loser who's no good with money?
The OP's question was why don't women like short guys and money is a big factor for a lot of materialistic women. Unfortunately the length and girth of their apendage has nothing to do with what women want. Show me the money is their mantra, just like you wouldn't even look at an unemployed bum.
what don't you believe? Lots of parents spend ove $500 ea. on their kids presents around here. The older daughter wants and ipad for her b'day this year. I've got a 2nd gen ipad on laybye for her. The youngest daughter wants and itouch like her older sisters, I've already bought it and loaded the apps for her, I like to get their presents in advance. I'll do their Xmas shopping in June.
you can be as frugal as you like akaRalk, for richer or poorer, you're saying you don't trust your partner. Trust and lack of it is one of the big reasons couples break up.
I blieve this is a single mindset, if you want to be in a partnership, all things being equal, separate bank accounts causes friction especially considering one person may earn more than the other.
Some of the pensioner couples are like that who come in, don't give her the change, that's my money, how childish. What a horrible way to live your life.
It's actually quite low for me, The laptop cost $499, but the ipod touch 16GB only cost $299 and she uses it more than her laptop as it's not as bulky to carry around so skyping her at maccas when she's on it is a good way to find where she is and because it's not an iphone, there's no credit needed for it, just a wireless connection like they have at any maccas.
The personal fund is all good in theory, but a trust relationship would mean all the money goes into the pot, the needs are accounted for first and then the wants are negotiated together in harmony
Keeping a secret cash stash from your partner. Not sharing bank details. Keeping separate bank accounts. The sort of thing people do when they're not really working together as a couple, but rather as two separate units who are not united. Do you do this or have you done this.? ie: keep pseparate financials
