I prefer my soulmate...

Oh money is important but you can always get that together by bettering yourselves together. We have fights also sometimes because of money but we always make it through.

So true and so very well put!

I agree. I am so happy I married for love! People tried to get me to marry someone else because they had money but I didnt love that person. I have my husband and kids and I am happy with them! Maybe one day by working together we will live more comfortably.

I used to think I would meet a guy , fall in love, and he would Need to get married and I would sadly walk away. I thought that was my fate. But now I know if a guy Need to marry, he isn't The One for me anyway! My guy found me, fell in love with me as isand is happy Not to marry. I'm so lucky!

I would definitely choose the same no matter what! We go through hard times but we still have each other at the end of the day and thats important to me. Im glad you found someone that cares about what you want and is ok with no marriage.=)

I agree. Love provides much more happiness than money. And if you find both than you are a very lucky one! Lol.

Very luck indeed.

That is definitely a lovelier thought. Anything can go wrong when you enter something with all the wrong reasons. I keep in mind that the person I'll marry will be with me for a lifetime. If I only marry someone for money, I don't know how long I can keep being with someone I do not love.

Before I met my husband I thought about it too. Then I met him and fell in love and forgot all about the financial aspect. I think its much better to find love and become successful together! That would be awesome. We can say we did it together and got past all of the hard times.

It is great having found my husband and I know you will someday find yours too! I hope you find someone who loves you unconditionally.

Thanks, I do hope so.

Im poor and okay too. I have my husband and my kids who love me which Im happy with. To have both would be awesome but thats not reality, your right. I am happy with my soulmate!

I agree it wouldnt be a good marriage with only money and no love. That is a good point, the ones that just go for wealth usually end up unhappy in the end. I hope someday my husband and I will be comfortable financially.

I agree. Its so much better finding your soulmate then worry about making money together.

I am glad you found your soulmate, the one you can not live with you. Enjoy your life together.

I agree. Money is not whats most important to me. I am glad I married the one I couldnt live without!

I truly believe that God has blessed us and keeps a watch out for us. No matter how strained things got financially or otherwise, we have God and each other and I really don't feel that we need anything else. I think money buys you misery. Look at all these filthy rich people. What do they really have? Alot of stress, for one thing. They have to be constantly worrying about how to keep their money, and who is just using them and who really loves them. You can only buy so many things. Things will not make you happy. My parents had six children. My mother was a stay at home mom, for the most part, and dad drove a truck for a living. Needless to say, money was always scarce for them. They had a lot of tough times. I am sure that there were times that things seemed to be too much to handle, but they always perservered. I am thankful to God for the life that they gave me. By most people's standards, we were poor, but being so taught me many important values an coping skills. It certainly taught me that love is more valuable than anything else.

I have always just barely gotten by with things but I love my husband and I wouldnt have anyone else in the world! My husband has always found a way to come through at the last minute for us. I agree, I would rather have my soulmate and work together to start living more comfortably. Maybe someday we will have better things...

@ dee i grew up poor too. I'm from haiti a very poor country and we're have our shares of problems. Even when I came to the united states money was still scarce. I've learn to live with little. All this thought me to value the small things the big things will come later. Right now me and my boyfriend work hard so that we can survive. Sometimes I wonder how it would feel to have a silver spoon in my mouth when I was born. But I've to the conclustion that I wither be rich because i earn it then be born into it.

I would much rather have my husband than someone else with lots of money! Yeah, my husband and I are not even comfortably living right now but Im glad just to have him and our children. We will get there one day together.

I agree. Money cannot buy true happiness. True love is true happiness! =)

As long as he is rich in his love for you, that is all that truly matters. It has been my experience that waiting till you are more financially secure is generally a waste of the precious time you could be spending together. You will never have enough money to get married on. I think it is just best to go ahead and get married. You will learn a lot and your love will continue to grow stronger as you work together through life and all of its trials and pitfalls. I bet if you think about it, most of the truly happy, loving couples you know started out dirt poor and struggled to make ends meet and they would tell you that they would not change a second of it for anything.

I didnt marry for money either and I never would. I love my husband so much, I couldnt imagine my life without him. My husband and I are very poor but we will work together to get more financially sound. I have to agree with deedee here as well. If you wait too long, it might be too late. We never know what can happen or how long we have... And my husband and I were very poor when we got married and we would not change anything. We have each other and our children, thats whats important to us!

@ dee and l.babies I agee with you guys. Your right theres noting wrong with marrying poor and then working through your fianancial problems together. What I mean is if we were to marry now We wouldn't be able to pay for the wedding. I don't want to pay for the wedding now and then later fighting over how were going to pay for the wedding. That causes a lot of divorce. Money problems sometimes breaks the mrriaage too. Plus I dont want children so there is no rush to get married. We are already living together so its like we are married. I know we love each other we dont need a piace of paper to tell us that we love each other. We already made our promise to each other except without the ring.

Call me crazy, but I think having to struggle and work together is good for relationships. It makes you appreciate each other and the things you accomplish so much more.

I feel it will be a happier life if we marry for love and worry about money later on together. Im glad I found my soulmate.

Yes if you marry for money, most likely you will end up in divorce. I much rather have my soulmate by my side...

That is whats important. And I know that it's hard to get by. I am not in the greatest place at all. I am actually, or should I say, I feel less then half of the man I once was. But I do have my soulmate with me.

I agree. I am so glad I found my soulmate. He is worth more than a million dollars to me! Hopefully one day my husband and I can find a way to be more successful together. Right now at least we have each other. =)

Everyone usually thinks that before they find their soulmate. I thought I would be ok to find a rich man until I found my husband. Then it all changed, I did not care that he was poor because he treated me like his princess. Im so glad I found my soulmate and someday we will work our way to financial freedom...
