For those that are currently dating, when (after how many dates) do you ask your potential partner how much they make? And if they make less than you, do you still proceed with the relationship?

I have never asked a potential partner how much they make.

I genuinely question who let some of these men into the real world… part of me feels like it’s a red flag I haven’t been in a relationship in five years but i have tried.

I’m just only finding men with red flags who work in grey areas

I have never asked questions like that unless we were in an actual relationship. Conversations around career are perfectly normal but I wouldn’t use salary as a metric to determine compatibility. I personally also considered if then human was compatible with me far above salary. I would encourage you to look deeper than money.

Being in the financially industry, I recognized that odds are I would be the breadwinner and I’m comfortable with that. My husband makes a good living - around $100k but less than me. Never mattered at all to me. I wanted him to have a decent career and ambition to help me build a life for ourselves.

Depending on if you want to value more emotionally connected or quality of life, then decide if you want to ask. Generally only asked for occupations

Depends on what role money plays in your decision to pursue a relationship. For some people, it could be a red flag if they previously had to provide for a partner and it strained the relationship

I tend to take a more gradual approach when it comes to discussing money with a potential partner. I mean, it's not exactly first date conversation material, right? Usually I like to wait until we've been seeing each other for a little while and have built up some trust and are comfortable with such things before diving into the nitty gritty details.

Been seeing this guy for 1 year now. I just became an American citizen so have been getting more into politics. I lean left but the guy I’m seeing leans more conservative. He treats me so well and we get along great. Yes we disagree about topics but have respectful conversations and have both become more open minded. He doesn’t think it’s an issue. I feel like the media and the judgement of dating someone on the right is getting to me & making me have negative sabotaging thoughts. Any advice?
