Would You Marry Someone Isn't Financially Stable?

My personal belief is that I'd like to be financially stable (and with a good career) before marrying and having kids. I think it depends on the person though and what their view of marraige is (and how much of a rush they're in to get married). I personally would want to wait until I have my finances in order before deciding to settle down and start building a family - it just makes more logical sense to me, although I can understand how others might disagree.

I am a man. And I would marry the woman i love whatever the situation is. Afterall, I will be the one to feed her. lol

Of course money is important in establishing a family but that is not the only factor that you should consider when deciding to get married. You should also consider the maturity level of each one if they could muster those trying times ahead. Not only will you experience financial problems but emotional and everything. So to answer your question if you would marry those that isn't financially stable, try asking if you could live with his condition. Does he have a plan what to do with his current status?

When my fiance and I first met I had a job, and he didn't. Now that we are engaged, neither of us have a job. Money does matter in the sense that it buys things, but right now we are not concerned with it entirely. Financial stability doesn't really have anything to do with love. Money doesn't buy happiness. Now by saying this, I am not trying to say that no one fights over money or get stressed, we both do (my fiance and I). However, we talk it out as much as we can, and finally realize that while we do need the money we don't have to be as stressed out about it as say some people who are also getting married. My fiance and I are having a frugal DIY themed wedding, and we are really ahead of schedule. At the same time though, we are behind schedule because some of the more major things have had to be postponed. I appreciate this discussion and think it's a great one. I hope that you have a wonderful day mylotting!

I believe if both of us are young, we can work towards financial stability. It doesn't mean that if he's born poor, he will be poor forever. Most important thing is he loves me, and is hard working & responsible. That would be a good foundation for a marriage.

Hi, i think it all depends completely on the individual.how much money he/she needs to be satisfied in life. for some its never ending happiness and for others just the basic needs fulfillment. so if someone is not stable to afford his spouse and children. then i think they both sit and talk and share the problem about it. and before marriage someone can walk out from it...

I believe love is MORE IMPORTANT than money. My hubby was unemployed when we got married. Since I was the one working, he took over the wifely chores by doing ALL the cooking, ALL the cleaning, etc. He even did ALL the yard work as well as auto repairs.

I believe that tieng the not is not an easy thing to do. First you should have the ultimate rewuirement.Love. Then comes being emotionaly and financially stable. Why do I consider that? Because being unprepared emotionally and financially may raise problems in the early stage of the marriage which is not good. The early stage of marriage is a tough situation, especially for those who did not live together first before getting married, so why add up emotional and financial problems to that? But when love is there and when love is so great it could conquer any problems at hand, getting married is just a blissful and beautiful event, financially stable or not.As the song goes " love will keep us alive"...

yes i would marry someone that is not financially stable but is a hardworking person, very responsible, it doesnt matter if he is not fiancially stable, and also i would search my heart to look for love, and thats what matter's most. happy posting!!!

I would marry a man even if he is not financially stable, but of course it will depend on the said person, on his personality and lifestyle. If I truly love him, nothing else would matter but risking that love when some problems might come between us because of the money, I wouldn't do that. I think in the case one or both of us are not money stable, we would try first to fix that problem before making the grand commitment.
