    And you just made my point for me:)

    Sorry, but you do not have a clue as to what is better to marry for...

    You have never loved anyone but yourself.

    Your mom and dad are there to help you into life. I hope they teach you to be mature.

    I do not have respect for anyone that dose not have respect for others. And now your "kidding"? LOL!!

    Ok little one...

    Yea, as much as i'm personally in love with you ang, I have to disagree with you on this one hun.

    But, like I said, I'll marry (you) for love. You can marry (me) for (my) money. Okay? Cool.

    Legally binding.

    <3 i cant believe angie at times
    id love to see angie
    live in manchester or another rough part of a town
    in a council flat
    Struggling to buy a loaf of bread

    although that'd make her marry for money more cos she'd be desperate

    but as the point before

    People brought up with no money and/or have no money now can see how UNIMPORTANT money is in happyness.
    its a significant factor, but love overrides it anyday

    whereas people brought up by there rich daddys *cough* can't imagine having to walk 2mile to see there mates, or using public transport or moaning when ur kids want a pair of new shoes for $10. And thats there worst possible nightmare in life.

    Although for these people, if there families are rich, surely they cud marry the poorest man ever and there family wud support them so surely money shudnt matter to them either.

    Either way, love > money anyday.

    All this crap about rich daddies, I for one don't have a rich daddy! Sort of. Ehehe.

    I'm not going to say anything about that little spat up there because you all know what I would say.

    Back on-topic, I think marrying for love over is unrealistic. You say you'll be happy, but how happy can you be when you're constantly fighting over the bills, employment, work hours, yada yada yada? You'll be so tired after working so hard every day in a low-income job that you'll grow tired with each other and fall out love. I really don't think even love is strong enough to stand that stress.

    I'm sure it's possible to have love without money, but I'm also sure that's a heck of a lot harder.

    Stephen, you act like I'm this HORRIBLE creature! :(

    And a lot of people who come from rich families don't get much support from their parents after college (and some, even during college) because their parents are stingy, lol. Mine aren't, thankfully, but I don't want to mooch off of them for the rest of my life. I'd much rather transfer the financial responsibilities from my dad to my husband. :)


    +Phee is a smart girl. She knows what's up.

    Sorry Phee and ang but you both do not know what your talking about....

    Phee, yours is an easy fix... You do what you have to do for work and be CONTENT with what you got. Like I said 2 times. I have been VARY poor, and now I am doing VARY well...

    It took work:)

    Sure, having no money can make some prob's but it is up to the person to not let the daily life get to them. This is where REAL love comes in.. If you let things like that get to you to where your gone, then you do not know what love is and you are a week minded person...

    That would be up to you:)

    For me, love is not a filling. It's action! Doing the things you do not like to do to make it work! Like the things listed above...

    I read this in the Bible and I think it is right on.
    It is harder Phee.. But that is what makes it so good!! If you work hard for it, it will be much more fulfilling:)

    I am just letting you know Phee. And I know cuz I have lived it:)
    Been marryed 9 years!



    You mum and dad if they are well off will not need you to do that for them... Also, you can not ever ask your husband to do that.. It has to be a something you both take care of...

    If you think a man will do that for you with out LOVEING you then he will be gone fast:)

    Love is the only thing that will make him want to do that...

    It's not about what my parents need. It's about the fact that I don't want to be using my dad's credit card when I'm 30, duh. I mean, my trust fund will probably last a while, but I have horrible spending habits, so who knows. And obviously my rich husband's going to love me. I just don't necessarily have to love him.

    Exactly. I don't want to live on my dad's money when I'm 30, either. I have no problem with him paying for everything when I'm in college and grad school and maybe even when I'm making like only twenty grand a year. But eventually I'd like to have my own independence. I mean, if I end up making millions, of course I'll marry for love. But If I'm stuck in a crappy job making less than fraction of what my dad does, then obviously I'll marry for money. It'd be selfish to keep living off my dad's.

    I'd merry only for love, of course.
    I can't imagine myself merried for money o_O' It's not in my attitude, and anyway I want to merry someone only if we can be happy together.
    I'm working hard to get an important degree and become indipendent, so in the future I'll can fully choose my life.

    ang and Phee, I can see now that you both are to young in mind and in life to really get what I been trying to tell you both..

    Mainly ang...

    Life dose not work the way you both think it is going to work...

    ang, you will NEVER get someone to love you that you do not love back. And if you think you do, it will not last long at all.

    So good luck to you both..

    Your mum's and dad's need to make you both WORK for a living before you grow up into your own little fantasy world:)

    Cuz right now you both are young and can still learn a good bit about life and how it really works.

    Right now you both sound like little snobby brats that need a healthy dose of smacks all about your BUMS!! LOL!!
