I earn a bit more than my fiancé but in a few years I stand to earn much more. This is simply because I happened to finish school faster than him. I know that it bothers him a bit that he still hasn't graduated and gotten a 'real job' but I don't think the fact that I make more than him is a problem. In fact, we've had many conversations about him being a stay at home dad in the future.

I think every relationship is a bit different. I know guys who would hate it for a girlfriend to make more than them. I think that most guys can live with it as long as it's not being held over their heads.
