When you find the right person, this is NOT going to be one of the make it or break it questions.
When you form a relationship, you form an agreement about expectations and managing expectations. It's not about money, it's about personal worth. Together you will come up with a solution that works for both of you.
And you may find that your position on things changes over time. You both must be willing to adapt and listen to reason. Sometimes you will be right, sometimes the other person will be right.
If you can't come up with a solution on ANY ONE THING that is important to you (core value- wise)then that merely means that you will NOT succeed as a couple together.You throw each other back in and reel in a new fish and try again...
That's what life and love is.....cooperation, compromise, comfort, and joy in each other's company.
