[quote=Anonymous]In ideal world, the income difference shouldn't be a big deal. But as this thread has demonstrated, antiquated gender norms are alive and well. You have to decide whether or not this is something that will bother you. I think that this is something that still bothers a lot of men, including men that would consider themselves modern and progressive. When I married my dh, my income was easily 10x higher than his. I was in sales and he worked for a non-profit. I made more than enough money to support myself and future family- his income wasn't important to me. What was important was common values, interests, mutual attraction, etc. If I limited myself to men that made comparable incomes or higher, my dating pool would've been tiny and I would've missed out on a great guy.
