Questions for ME come up like...

~Do you have a retirement plan? Can you grow one on $750 a week and meet your retirement goals (or any other goals for that matter)
~What's your liquidity?
~How long have you two been together?
~Is a decision at this young age going to be regrettable when you are older?
~Are you doing what you love?
~Etc Etc Etc.....

I am a lot older than you are... and have had a lot of GF's who wanted me to do things... to help them feel better about themselves.

I am married to someone now... who wants me to do things that make me feel better about myself... (and vice versa). I serve on three Boards, several committees, being asked to serve on a fourth, own my own business, am a community activist, have many friends who I spend time with (both with my wife and without)... My life is FULL... and I don't see my wife enough. But I also know we would be miserable if she asked me to be anything other than what I am... and if I asked her to be anything other than what she is... SHE, BTW, has a full time job as a Family Nurse Practitioner, teaches young RN's on the side, is studying for her doctoral degree, serves on some Board committee's, and is training for a half marathon... We REALLY don't see each other as much as we want to... and we are HAPPY... because we are both pursuing what we love with the full support and encouragement of the other....

Just another way to look at it...
