Money or Love...

[OMEGA]

I disagree very much with the last one BM

I am not saying that you need to stop talking to the family from whence you came BUT you NEED TO PUT YOU AS THE COUPLE BEFORE THEM. Who comes first? Her family, your family or the family that you as the couple has just created?

You tell me.

People are the products of their family.

and if one still has roots that run deep in regards to the bonds that they have with their family, then Marriage to another be it women or man is just a extention and broadening of that family on both sides.
If one side disagrees then time and persistance will heal the breach, not a turning of ones back to the family that fostered them

Family is a unit of like people of common values and initiatives, and goodness extending their way of life, values, and sharing with others....

thats all
family first always all families involved

I always thought that if I had more money, that things would be better. My mother could pay off her bills. I could afford all the stuff I wanted. Sometimes, I still think along those lines. I wouldn't have worries about school bills. I could afford to go visit the people I care about. Just stuff like that. But you know what? All that money is nothing if you don't have someone to share it with. To share your life with. To call at the end of the day and say goodnight to. I would give up money anyday if it came down to it.

I don't know. Years ago I would have said love over money. I'd have to go with the money. Love doesn't always last. Assuming the money would last, it provides freedom. If you can handle it properly. I also have a child to love and that's the greatest love in the world to me, so I guess that fills my need for love.

Good for you. Even though romance is necessary to start a family, people just don't seem to recognize any type of love as existing other than romantic. My parents mean more to me than money, but some woman who i can feel the same emotions for (romantic love), and will feel the same emotions for 10 others does not.

Thats horrible. My brothers wife is a part of the family. She is one of my mothers closest friends, they are almost like sisters. Maybe your family & in-laws had problems or something.

Funny thing is, my brother came over to my parents today, and he spent the day with his wife and it reminded me of hte old saying 'when you have a daughter, she is a daughter for life but when you have a son he is only a son until he takes a wife'. Sad. You should be able to do both.

I would give up every penny I ever had to truly be in love...

Would you be willing to pay the price? My ex's grandfather just lost his wife of over 60 years. He is so heart-broken that he wants to die. A lot of older people do die soon after their spouse does. They lose the will to live. There's a price for everything that we are attached to. The greater the love the greater the heartache. A sad world.
