[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][b]OP this is not the guy for you.  Every post you write makes it sound like you feel superior to him in every way.  [/b]Money aside you don’t respect who he is.  So on paper he may check a bunch of boxes but you can’t deal with the reality.

My partner makes less than I do and is the sole provider for his kids so he has very little fun money.  I have no issues paying for things for us to do.  He contributes to the relationship by saving me tons of money on fixing and maintaining my possessions.  I’ve never had to call a handyman or mechanic or landscaper.  He handles it all.  Relationships are compromise and there is give and take.  It’s the overall value the other person brings to the relationship.  There can be a balance even without similar salaries.[/quote]

OP if I was dating someone who wrote any of the things you have written about this guy about me, I'd rather they not do me the "favor" of putting up with my poverty.  You're very condescending towards him and the general vibe is that you're slumming for good sex but can't imagine introducing him to your friends.  Stop agonizing over this and break up.  Then adjust your minimum income requirements on OKC and prepare to complain on here about how there are no good single guys.[/quote]
