Is money that important in a relationship?

I am a married woman and my husband has a steady job. Its not a high paying job but he loves to cook and makes about ten an hour. Most girls I have seen and heard wouldn't give him the time of day because he doesn't make much, but honestly money is not that important to me. Yes, you need money to live together and all, but when it comes to the relationship it shouldn't be the big issue. Most women who go after rich guys usually end up being up happy. Most NOT all are more attracted to the guy's wallet than him. So the connection is there as long as he has money. You can find women who are perfectly fine with a guy who doesn't make much. My husband and I have some financial ups and downs but our kids are healthy. We have a roof over our heads, food in our house, etc and he can keep a job. That is important to me. I can say that while I don't care about the amount of money a person makes... before I married or got with my husband I would not stay with someone who couldn't at least hold steady employment. I don't care if the job pays 5.00/hr but they needed to be able to hold it down.

Right now I have a boyfriend far away, we've been for almost 3 years now and we haven't met yet for real. We talked everyday and we love each other even if we are having too much problem. He don't have stable job and trying to work hard for both of us to meet each other. And I see for myself that money is important for us to be together. For things to be better. I hate the person who invented money. It shouldn't be like this. :(

I don't think that money is really all that important in a relationship. Sure, it may have a small role to play in some relationships, but I don't think that it has a major role. I don't think that it's all that important.

I think being practical,money is important in a couple specially to a married couple because every people have a financial need for them to have ability to buy food. But for me i don't need a super rich man,i'm contented to have a husband that in average level. He cannot buy me all the expensive things but he can still support our family financially. For me,love and money are both important when it come to relationship. In the stage of a girlfriend and boyfriend,how can we buy our partner a gift or how can we date them in a nice and romantic place without money.

Hey mate, First thing first, money is quite important for everyone here. Without it, we can't really get what we need. Well, I wouldn't say all girls always prefer richer man. Maybe there're some girls that behave so, but when we think again why is this happened, it's actually due to the materialistic world. In this world, there're too many unnecessary things that created for people, or I would call 'expensive toys for rich folks'. Some girls might love these things, and they would prefer rich people because it'll be much easier to get them, esp with more money. Don't worry & trust yourself; I'm sure you'll be able to get a good girl and be in love one day!

Hello friend, Yes I think it is important for a relationship. Personally I think it is important because without money you can't be happy with your pertner. And without happiness you can't still for longtime with your pertner. So the money is very important. Have a nice day.

I think that money is important in a relationship, as it is important in every sense of life. I hate that this is the case in the modern world, but I don't think that there is anything that we can do about it, because everything that we need in the world is bought with money, and if we don't have any money then we can't have anything. Our world is very materialistic, and it might cause problems in a relationship if one of you manages to afford things that the other cannot. I know that I wouldn't like to depend on a man, and I am glad that I am not in that situation myself where I would have to be.

both are important money and love to make batter relationship....

Hello Silence, Money is not the only thing which is important in the relationship there are many other things like love,trust,understanding which are also important. Those who only make relationships by seeing money don't really able to keep that relationship much longer as when the money gets finished there are chances that relationship also get to an end.

Yeah, I think money is very important in relationship. I have bad experience about this, it was about 6 years ago. My ex girl had been married, she left me because I don't have a steady job and I don't have much money. So, I've been applying those experience in my mind, I will not get married before I getting steady income for decent living.

Girls prefer richer man only because they want his money. Thats only the reason why they prefer reacher man but they don't really love them

hi friend.. this may be true for few not for all.. yes even i come across so many girls preferring there boy friend much be rich. but i really say there will be no love just affair. this is very hard to accept it but this is true. we have to agree on this point.

I for myself believe that money is in fact important n a relationship... For practical reasons... Let's just be realistic that almost all things nowadays, ask for a price, let us say for your daily expenses, clothings, children's education and other expenses to live and survive (thank God oxygen is still for free). But let us also remember that we should rule over that money and not the other way around... We should use that money for a better purpose... Like for giving our family or our relationship a good and comfortable living and a good future.

Relationship without money is bland taste. Because whatever we do in life needs money. But the money is not the aim of achieving happiness,but rather a means to achieve happiness.

I have been in a relationship for 4 years now.. and my opinion with this kind of girls who is apt for rich man is not for love.. I guess if you really love someone you wouldn't think of how much money he has in his bank account or pocket, because love never measures any value nor wealth..So if you encounter such things better think twice..

My idea that money and relationship both are very important to our life. It does not mind if we just have a Little enough money for our needs, but Good relationship is more Necessary and important in our lives.

We need both in our life and both has it own significance in our life. It is true that we can't live without money. We need money to live our life. Again how much money you need is depends on the lifestyle you want to adapt. Most of us want to lead easy life. Find a partner that can accept you and your financial status. To be honest if you ask me, then I want my partner to be well established ( he is ) not rich but there shouldn't have financial diffivulties in day to day life, I will not move with a boy who is struggling with money.

hello friend...yes i completely agree with you.Love should have no barrier of richness or poorness.If a person loves you for your money only then my friend that is surely not true love.Love is pure and should remain one. all the best....have a nice day

Yes silence,what you heard was mostly right.Most girls get attracted to richer men.Remember it is not the case with all.Girls feel comfortable with such guys.And at the same time most of such relationships are not stable and soon end in break ups.But those who get into a relationship on the basis of love,never need anything to comfort themselves.The love between them keeps the relationship intact and long lasting.I believe in long lasting love and not in money.So i have not involved myself in maintaining such relationships.Its just a waste of time.I suggest you to not get involved in them and concentrate on your career and build up your stature.Then you will find girls making a Que for you.Happy mylotting!
