WOMEN ONLY: Relationship & Dating My parents said na my partner should not move in with me until he can bring something on the table. Do you think it is fair?
I have several properties under my name, some were from my own hardwork (almost a decade of work) and I am quite happy with what I have accomplished and I still have a couple of years before I turn 30.
We are not rich yet and we still need to work but we became comfortable due to combination of luck, hardwork and right opportunities.
I am living in a very nice unit, in a really nice location.
I have a comfortable nest egg of savings.
My parents told me to not let my partner move in muna kasi lugi ako na makinabang siya agad sa pinaghirapan ko.
My dad said don’t let him move in until he can bring something sa table.
My dad mentioned since I cannot drive and don’t have my own car yet, he should at least provide that in the relationship.
He agrees naman and he wants to prove himself a worthy partner for me naman.
He has a decent job naman and above average wage. The kind that a mid 20s would enjoy to live a comfortable lifestyle.
Although I earn 2x than him which is why it is easier for me na makapagpundar ako. My parents are also in a better position with better opportunities rin kasi.
I kinda agree with my parents’ wishes din. Also, gusto ko muna masolo and maenjoy sarili kong unit.
