Money is not love and it can't buy love. Can love be complete without money. Can you truly love someone without spending money?.I know no matter how much somone spend on you if he or she don't show you love you will not be happy.Can someone spend money on you without loving you or will someone loves you without spending money?. Can a stingy man spend money on a woman he loves?. Money and love can't do without each other although they are not the same thing. What do you think?

I completly agree

Money is just money, a tool. When I was young I did not have much money but I loved my SO very much and we were happy. But having money does help.

Yes money is not everything. If dont have we still can find.. love is come from heart. . Is soft come from your soul. If loosing you cant find the same.. that y need love more dan money..

oh please. no woman is going to go out with the guy who has no money. sorry, that's just a fact.

The only times money has ever played a role in my relationships it ended up as something screwy. I keep money out of it.

People who think money is a part of love in most cases have already lost the chance of true companionship.

Don't get me wrong, if your mature you can talk about and spend or not spend till the cows come home, but when it enters in as an aid to your love, you've lost.

You have got to be able to seperate the two. They have nothing to do with each other and more often than not will end the relationship if turned into an issue.

See how many times money topics are brought up here? Crazy, and in most of them you can feel the burn it has left on souls. Money is so closely related to greed and survival that it has (because we are greedy) become a quality instead of an utility for getting something done. I have a thousand, you have a hundred, does that make me more loving than you? Ridiculous. I would rather live in a box with someone I worked together with on real issues than sit in the penthouse arguing about the bills. There's no 0 "zero" quality of good living arguing about bills.

In the hip-hop industry, money is always put first. Never understood that myself, not that I would anyway, as I'm not into the gangsta lifestyle. Money and drinking is their life it seems. You hear it on most rap songs. However, other cultures do not think money matters first. I put love first. Money is just for spending, or paying awful bills. Love is important for real communication.

It appears that you have little experience with either!!!

I agree...I've run into some older couples who look back and say they were happiest during their early years together when they didn't have much money...When they were first starting off they had to pull together as a "team" to make decisions. (And find ways to "make-do" with what they had so they could make "ends meet" etc.)...Later when they earned higher incomes they started going their separate ways a lot more and developed some "wide gaps" in their marriage.

BS. I recently dated a poor man who had very little money. He had other things to offer, and I enjoyed my time with him. Money really isn't everything.

I enjoy being with people who look for reasons to be happy. (No matter what...Despite their circumstances in life.)...Sure we're all going to feel "down" at times or even sorry for ourselves etc...But I don't want to stay in a "funk" forever and ever and make myself (and everyone around me) miserable...I've been around some very wealthy people who don't seem all that happy...And I've been around so-called "poor people" who get excited over simple little things and count their blessings on a regular basis...My friend's husband got laid-off and he was out of work for months. Money was tight...But everytime I went to see my friend and her husband I felt "uplifted." (Because they pulled together and tried to make the best of things.)... And still made time for fun and play and a little "flirting" with each other. (Even though they've been married for 15 years!)

So true.

I think its a fact that women are more likely to date a guy with money.

Sorry but you just negated your opening statement. Sound like you do equate the size of the Diamond to the amount of his love. You are wrong.

then you're the exception, nt the rule. while money is not everything, it is one of the main things people look at. i admit i'm materialistic. wish it weren't so, but it's true.

2keith you got it wrong truth is bitter but truth will set you free. Fristly I'm a very hard working woman I don't believe in a guy's money. Money is not love but it makes true love sweeter . No woman wants to be with a very poor man just like no man wants to be with a nagging woman. We know that true love can make you love a poor guy but deep inside you wish that atleast he is Financial ok even if he is not rich. . I'm sorry but is only stingy men who want to take advantage of women that pretend that love has notting to do with money.

Well, for me, my reason for wishing that a poor man be financially better off is largely for his sake rather than for mine. That's if we're dating, of course. In a marriage or cohabitation arrangement, then it would be for both our benefit since we'd have shared expenses.

On the other hand, if I had a career that both satisfied me and rendered me financially well-off and I were, say, married to a man whose career was less centered upon making lots of money than upon creative satisfaction or helping people or whatever... Well, I really wouldn't care how much money he did or didn't make as long as he did work and his work was satisfying to him. As long as our bills were paid and we had a comfortable life, it wouldn't matter to me which of us earned the bulk of the money as long as we both were happy in what we did for a living and we had mutual respect, love and affection at home.

I'd like to think I'm really not all that abnormal in this.

Sadly, there are women who look at a man's income level and work schedule before deciding whether or not to date the man.

Then there are woman who couldn't care less about a man's income level and work schedule.

Anna Nicole Smith married for love right?

true. and he married her cuz she was good in the kitchen ;)
