Tip #1 - Be Honest with Yourself
If you prefer not to date or marry a man who makes less than you, don’t get involved with anyone making less. It’s not that you are a bad person, this is your belief and you have that right! Don’t settle for what you are not comfortable with. You will not be happy if you choose to pursue this, and it will cause serious problems for you and him. I’m just saying.
Tip #2 - He Who Has the Money Makes the Rules
In one word, the above mentioned title means “control”. I know that it sounds a bit harsh but usually that is the way it goes. It is difficult as a money and decision maker to hand over the reins to a person who doesn’t do that in the corporate world. Being in control at all times can make a woman appear masculine and emasculates the male.
Tip #3 - Set Realistic Expectations
Skiing in the South of France, weekend trips to Morocco, dining in Rome…not
going to happen like that! You are
involved with a man who has limited resources, why would you expect him to do those
things? Hell, have you even done those things yourself?
- Setting realistic expectations
and knowing what your mate can and cannot do at that time, makes it easier to enjoy
them.
Tip #4- Maintain a Level of
Respect
Just because he earns less does not make him less, just like your earn
more doesn’t make you more. Be
respectful of each other’s feelings and situations. No one wants to be disrespected about their
current situation.
TIP #5 – Trouble Don’t Last
Always
Today he is down, tomorrow he may be up. That just means that you never know what God
has in store for you and your mate. If
you have chosen correctly, you chose a man who is capable of meeting all of
your needs whether it is now or in god’s appointed time.
- Don’t give up on him, and know that he is watching your examples of success. He knows what type of woman you are and what
it takes to lead you. He is not doing
this by himself, he has help.
Peace and blessings,
