In loving someone, do you mind the standard of living?

hi, when talking of love, i could love a person even he is poor or nothing in status of life, the status of life doesn't matter that you will not in love in a person, but the good attitude he have and good personality is the most important to me.

No I do not consider material wealth as a prerequisite in loving someone, maybe because I was already financially stable when I got married. What's important to look for in a partner is his ability to raise a family and not his family's financial background.

hello Bianca, It's not being choosy,but practical. If the guy belongs to a a poor family but has the ambition and is really working on his ambition...why not. There are poor people who reach their ambition,and become rich and even powerful. What matters most is...a person's determination. If the guy is poor and lazy...what future is waiting for you and your child maybe? So...it's the standard of living that matters to me..it's the person's perspective,actions and determination. Have a good day

No,I don't think love compares poor or rich ones , it compares the true connection of hearts.But as the time flew away people took it easily, they made the fun of love comparing the other things.Love is done for the person to whom we love, not her wealth.It might be only four letters for someone but for true lover it might be the whole life. Obviously, I wouldn't stick on standard as it doesn't matter while in love. I would love her as much , as others do in normal case. In my case, she is also from weak class of family but it doesn't come on the way of our love nor it while.

Love does strange thing to people. People lost their sense of intelect thinking when they in love. But logic thinking, does love need to be back up by something else rather than pure love alone? In this modern world I would say yes. Say me discriminating or whatever, sometimes it just not wise to love a poor people when we also didn't do quite well finacially. If we are wealthy or have good source of income, I would say why not. It wouldn't matter. we see a lot of marriage failed because of financial problem. This modern world is cruel and love wouldn't save us.

(NOT KNOWING WHICH CATEGORY THIS IS) In the old days--when 'one income' was the standard (maybe it still is in some places, but I don't know)--marriage was A SIGN OF a well-employed man (or woman ... Mr. Mom, I dunno). i.e. 'Marriage' was not your path if you could not hold a job. But now--where it's every beast for themselves alone--it's hard to remember what 'marriage' is for anyway! lol

well it depends if coz it doesnt really matter if hes poor as long as he dont wanna stay like that forever or as long as hes character is good...:) character always comes first:)

No, I don't measure his love with what he has materially speaking. What I'm after is what he has to offer me as his partner in life.What he can do for me and how much love and understanding he could give to me. I married my husband when he's starting to get back from a failed business. I saw in him a determined man to get back and thankfully he was back again on his own. He always say he had done it because I'm with him all the way . That doesn't fail to amused me.

There are a lot of successful people that came from a poor family. As long as that someone i am to fall in love with has a stable job already , responsible and God -fearing then i will go for it.. My husband was from a middle income family and when we met we are already both working so when we got married we more or less is ready to have a family of our own. Nowadays, it pays that both of you before plunging into marriage should both have a stable job. That way, you can be assured that you can raise a family comfortably.

hi bianca, If we are going to be practical it is better to have one who has a job rather than a jobless or someone who has enough money rather than the one who he is not, i did not say that they don't have the right to be in love or to be love but facing the reality that when it comes in any relationship expenses will always be present especially in the process of courting he/she really needs to put an investment on it. If i will be in love to someone who doesn't have enough money to spend then be it i can't ignore my feeling becoz he doesn't have a pesos in his pocket. happy posting

hello, Hmmm that's a good question. Maybe in a middle class like me because I dont care if what was his standard as long as we loved each other. If you are talking about really poor , I'll be honest No, because I want someone who is educated in has respect.
