I guess depending on the type of person your dealing with would determine your answer but no I do agree with that if money is your issue then your not with the right person.
I think it can. But only if it is something that is not discussed. I think people make too much of money's place. If you can provide for your needs, and are responsible with money, that is the important thing...
No.
Not for me..
Not if the roles are established. If there is a disparity in incomes and one is trying to keep up with the other then it doesn't work. If it's all "our" money then there's even less trouble.
re point if ther e are other problems.
They can for sure. The main thing, however, is that both people feel respected financially and are fiscally responsible. That can make a big difference in overcoming disparity.
For certain couples, yes.. But for me.. It's fine
If u have a family or trying to start one , yes

No they do not. My baby contributes to our relationship in ways beyond what money can buy.
I'm gonna give this a big preemptive YES.
It could if there are expectations that are not talked through. Where there is true love there is always understanding and compassion and where there are those elements money becomes secondary not the focus of the relationship.
No. They shouldn't cause problems. Either way if you trust your partner and manage your money rite you will be just fine.
