Would you date/marry someone who makes less money than you or is less successful? (Page 2)

[Pink2000]

I already know my boyfriend won’t make anything close to what I’m making in the future so yeah. I’d marry someone who makes less than me.

[Anonymous]

Yeah I would and I always have made more, any woman that makes more than me is never interested in me or out of my league anyway

[Dark93]

Yes. Even if it's not as much as I make or more than I make we can use our combined income to eventually get an apartment or house without struggling to buy food on our own every week.

[Anonymous]

Yeah but I’d just feel insecure. I hear people use others for money and I’m honestly kinda naive sometimes so...

[Bandit74]

Not unless the laws change so I won't get fucked over in divorce court.

[Lightning8]

If you need money for sex/relationship that's prostitution. Just make it work and make commitment a value again.

[clampfan101]

It would take some hard work to be less successful than me in any way. lol
But seriously, I wouldn’t care.

[Lance1965]

Yes as long as she is doing something. Welfare moms are the worse if they are capable of working but choose not to.

[KiaTate]

As long as he is putting in the effort and actually going to work I would be ok with it.

[pleasestopthis]

Well... I don't measure success in terms of money, so yes I would marry someone who makes less.

[Anonymous]

Ya do not care about that. If the person is happy doing their job--that is what counts.

[Locha037]

What has someones personal income have to do with dating?

[Anonymous]

95 percent of guys are stupid lol then with a divorce rate that's 50% on average guys really like setting themselves up to get taken to the cleaners in divorce and alimony and child support

[Millesa80]

Normally people making little money have little education so nooo

[Lightning8]

If a bachelor's degree is "little education" to you then I can see what you mean

[Millesa80]

@Lightning8 where was the bachelor degree

[CoffeeWC]

I would. You can't reach for something that you already have. I can help her reach that.

[Anonymous]

No, because you don't want someone who will sponge off you.

[Praec]

That's a diplomatic way of saying "I want to sponge off them" lol

[Opinion Owner]

@Praec No it isn't - I will soon be in a high paid profession, I want to date someone on the same level.

[Anonymous]

No way. Now that women are more than equal to men, I expect women to support me

[NicolaD]

Money isn’t everything love is

[MayBlythe]

I'm engaged to someone who makes less than me

[ArrowheadSW]

If I were the marrying type, I would consider it.
