Comments Dating and money
![]() |
You feel for this person a lot and you love every moment you spend together and look forward to take this relationship to the next level. You have even started to get little gifts for your date since you can’t help yourself from doing so. You love to see his or her eyes light up when you spend what you have in your pocket, just for them. It won’t matter to you if your date never gives you anything. It’s enough to just be with them and you are enjoying every moment! You won’t even notice that you are picking up most of the expense on these wonderful excursions with your dream date and your pocket is getting a bit tight as the days go by. You are so in love you just keep giving and never desire for
anything in return. Like it is said, love is blind and it is blinder towards your pocket.
But it is not a good sign. Money is one of the biggest breakers of relationships when dating or when you are so completely entwined in another person’s life. Who spends more, what the money is spent on and who does what becomes very important as time goes by. So, it’s vital that you watch for a few signs about your date during dating times. As the dating gets going, your personal expenditure will keep rising. If it is you who is making the payments, there may be resentment that the other person never even offers to pick up the tab. Also, most of the time in the getting to know section of your dating, you don’t know your date’s financial situation. Like, someone who spends a lot of money can either be someone who has a lot of money or someone who has a lot of debt. Another thing you have to keep a check on is the spending style of the person. Some people spend it lavishly. There are also people who have low-income parents and are scared to spent money. This has nothing to do with gender and depends on the environment and financial conditions under which the person is raised. If one person is the spender and other one is the saver then some problems may crop up in the relationship in due time.
Taking your money or the other person’s money for granted is also a very negative thing to do. If you start the relationship with one person paying for everything and the other person spending it, then there could come a time when things change and the relationship is tested and might be at stake. It is better to allow these conversations happen early so that you can try to prevent a broken heart and broken bank account and avoid spoiling the true beauty of dating your dream mate.
