Your quality as a person is independent of how much money you have.
Your quality as a person is higher than you think.
If you only attempt to date women of equal or poorer means than you, you are still effectively entering into a relationship based on money.
The idea that a man must be needed instead of enjoyed and desired is a sad trap.
If she marries you because she needs you for money and then doesnβt need the money anymore, where are you then?
Divorced. π
Money isn't everything, but... Bring unequally yoked IS a burden and one I don't take well to. That may make me unfit to be a husband and father. I'm leaning towards that being the case, for me.
Unequally yoked doesnβt refer to money.
No. But it can when it comes to effort put into the relationship, and that often shows in earnings and how one spends.
My in-laws have a pretty good rule for marriage: βBoth of you should give 60 and expect 40.β Effort in a relationship is important. Part of that can be working to provide for the family, whether by earning money or not. Part of it can be spending responsibly.
None of this means that a relationship between someone who has or earns more and someone who has or earns less money is going to be a problem.
Being unequally yoked refers to being deeply involved with people who are working counter to Godβs purpose. Itβs not about contributing unequally to relationships or even inherently about marriage.
2 Corinthians 6:14-18
I mean strictly not inherently.
I've only only recently heard rat rule, but I do like it.
It's only a problem when expectations aren't met. But it can be a friction point if not clearly handled well
Yup. Unequally yoked is exactly what I meant. That includes finances.
I'm not trying to argue with you, just explain myself more. You're obviously a better judge of what works than I am. π
