How has money affected your relationships?
I've always been middle class (despite lots of hard work and not many bad decisions), sometimes lower middle class, sometimes higher. I reckon I'll always be in the middle class (as long as one exists) and that honestly suits me fine. I've only wanted to feel comfortable, not have to stress about an emergency, and travel a little. I couldn't enjoy having more than enough and watching people I care about have less. It's only affected my relationship when our goals weren't in alignment. And honestly, I blame myself for being a people pleaser and not putting my foot down on those instances. Someone's gotta be the dreamer, someone's gotta be the accountant.![]()
This makes a lot of sense. It has everything to do with where you live, go to school, hang out, etc.Have you ever fallen for someone, then learned they were super rich, or super poor?
No. This will probably be unpopular but I think people from different socioeconomic statuses are very different from each other in ways that you can't tell until you're doing life together. People take for granted the way they live their lives are pretty similar to the way everyone lives and it's just not true. They assume the hardships or the opportunities they've had are common or available to everyone. This isn't necessarily good or bad, to be clear, just different. For me, I value people who share the same ideals and those ideals are very often displayed through finances and their attitudes towards people with more or less. That's a long way of saying, so far, I've fallen for people who understand money in a similar way to me.
So... wear a ballgag? Kinky.Have you ever stripped for money, had sex for money, or raised money for a good cause by doing anything sexy? Shouldn’t you?
No.... but I often joke about starting an OF. Surprisingly my partner is totally on board with that as long as I don't talk to anyone watching. So.... thats.... awkward.![]()
