[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Curious about this myself. I have a PhD and make 200k+, but I love fitness and I am tempted to get serious with a personal trainer who makes like 1/3 of my salary. He seems great and it definitely does not bother me now but could this become an issue later? [b]Is he going to feel insecure by me being the main breadwinner, will there be tensions if I expect him to do more at home, will I be resentful we cannot afford the type of holidays and house we could if his salary was more comparable to mine?[/b] Of course a lot of this will depend on me and the quality of our relationship, but I was wondering what others experienced after the honeymoon phase wore off.

These questions are specific to you two and your personalities, so we can't tell you. If it's not an issue for y'all, sounds great!

He will feel insecure only if you make him feel that way. I know several couples (law firm partner - governor worker, law firm partner - teacher in public school, bank CFO - police officer, doctor - researcher) who are in a long relations and doing very well. Money is not only thing that people bring into relations, sometimes less earning partner contributes much more on so many levels. Just decide what matters to you and proceed accordingly. You can always earn for your own and family vacation, house, etc. You cannot buy a great partner with any $$$ in the world. [/quote]
