When we met my Lady made 5 or 6 times what I do. Now that we live together I make nuthin' but sweet sweet love to her, keep the home fires burning and the kiddies fed, and do my art. All is good.
When we dated my Lady had to pay for most things because my wages didn't pay for the debts my ex and I had run up (the ex also made about 50% more than I did at the time, but I was responsible for half our mutual debt when we split which led to a real shortfall on my end until the house was sold/bills eliminated. Living off credit cards sucks. I hated owing more each month than what my paycheque totaled, and that is before accounting for simple things like food, gas, rent . . . )
My family hasn't said boo about our relationship except that it is wonderful that we seem to work so well in different, mutually supportive domains. Her family was not so warm and fuzzy about things. meh. We've been together 5 years now, and couldn't be happier.
