Can financial problems kill your love?

Anything that causes stresses in my life can certainly take a toll on the passion factor with my partner. Though i will still love him, when i am stressed about something, no matter what it is (though it almost always seems to be money) I just wind up with a sour attitude and no desire to be romantic or passionate whatsoever. This makes me feel bad soemtimes, as i don't want him ever to think i don't care for him, or am angry at him or ever that it is his fault....but when my head is so filled p with worries about how i am going to keep food on the tabl this week...or worried about having to deal with bill collectors or trying to avoid phone calls form my landlord asking why the rent is late, it just makes it really hard to feel sexy. It really just makes me want to curl up in a ball and sleep the week away until payday when i can try and make things better.

I think that bad finances can definitely kill the passion and, eventually, destroy the love. Passion and love are strong emotions. So, I don't think that finances can instantaneously get rid of them. But, as financial pressures mount, eventually they will become priority. Especially when one person feels the other person should be doing more (financially). Passion and Love can keep a relationship going for a long time. But, when the finances need much attention, they pose a great threat to the relationship. And, if one or both of the persons don't do anything to rectify the situation, love and passion will probably go out the window as hostility and other priorities take their place. One reason is because we have to have the right financial means in order to live.

Yes, definitely. let us be practical. Money can make many things including a split in a couple.

Financial strain is terrible for a relationship, I would say in our 50 year marriage out most troublesome arguments were mainly about money. About 90%. I didn't kill the love it just strained the relationship.

Hey, Yes of course it can! My parents are always arguing with each other every single day about not having enough money to pay the bills. So I think that if the women doesn't receive enough money in the household, the marriage might not turn out so well. Make sure you have a good day, God bless and Happy Lotting!!

My dad had one saying that he used to say all the time. 'Money doesn't buy happiness, but lack of it can buy a lot of misery.' If love with a partner and within a family is strong, then financial problems can certainly put a damper on passion, and to a lesser extent, love. If the relationship endures beyond and through the problems, then it's much stronger afterwards for having survived. Even passion returns, and in a big way. Unfortunately, many couples fall victim to the blame game and finger pointing instead of solving the problems together. Those relationships usually fall apart.

very true, it can make or break you as a couple. if the other person is willing to do everything just to over come this hardship then i think it will make the both of you. but if your partner will take this as sitting down and watching tv the whole time, or going out like you think he will look for a job and end up going and drinking out with friends then this will breakl you both. it is how you both will handle a situation like this. in my situation it broke us to pieces. i left my husband 9 years ago and tagged our four children along with me. it did killed my love and respect for him.

You are 100% rite mostly financial problems kills love love goes out of life when hunger comes in but i feel myself so luck i got true love in my life, who never left me in my hard times. I love my wife coz she truly loves me and never interested in money, jewelry and such related stuff. Only true love can exist in such bad situations otherwise ppllz left you alone in hard times.

yah... it's a very common scenario in our country... poverty makes people violent that made them feel so much hatred and later disregard LOVE... :(

Yes, if the marrage is a only for a financial reason, not love.
