reader, anonymous, writes (22 June 2009): Well are you worried about it in the long run? Like what if you start makin' big bucks and he's still flippin burgers? You know a lot of people that go straight into the work industry instead of college never go to college (not all of them, but a lot) would that bother you? If its purely financial concerns that are bothering you... maybe you're shallow. I hate to say that and I usually sympathize with people but I dont guess I see what your main concern is. If you really love someone its not about how much money they make. You can do your own thing, financially, and he can do his and if its true love then you two can work through any financial problems together, instead of you looking down on him for not being wealthy. If it's not then you need to let the guy find someone who cares about him and not his future financial situation.
