[quote=Anonymous]Ok, I'm willing to admit that when I was dating I took the earning potential of a future spouse into consideration. I'm sure I might get flamed for that statement, but I don't think that makes me a gold digger, it makes me smart. My husband doesn't make tons of money but he makes enough that we can live in a nice house in suburbia and I can SAH with our adorable baby. In addition to all of this, I am deeply in love with him, we have a great relationship/sex life, he is kind and we hold the same values and hopes for our future. I worked my ass off in my former career but I knew (and he knew) going in that being "at the top" in my career of choice was never going to equal a huge salary. We live modestly comparatively to many in the DC area but we enjoy a lot of luxuries and I'm incredibly grateful for that and for him. Had I dated and fallen in love with someone who couldn't provide this sort of lifestyle would I have regretted my decision? Probably. [/quote]
