for richer and for poorer...?
Today I went to the dentist and I she said my teeth were PERFECT! well well well, tell me something I don't know, right.. No but seriously, I was scared to death that she was gonna say that my teeth needed to be removed and stuff. I'm gonna keep up the good work, me and my best friend: the electric toothbrush. It really does make a difference.
Going to the dentist for me, is probably like going to the hairdresser, my dentist is major! The problem is that I can't talk since I'm laying there with my moth wide open. But every chance I get to say something, I'm gonna take it. She is so damn cool.
Today I wanted to discuss the importance of money. How important is it really in a relationship? With age I have started to appreciate the importance of money, and I didn't before, partly because I was ashamed to admit it and because I was such a believer in unconditional and true love. But it is important. But I think too much money is gonna kill you slowly.
I know I will never make any big money of my own, and I'm not expensive when it comes to living, but what is important is the possibility to give my future children a good life. For me that's the most important thing. Because money DOES make your life easier, at least your everyday life. No matter how much you love someone, it will destroy parts of the relationship if you have to turn every penny you've got every single day, every single week, every single year. The question is, does that make you a bad person to choose to be with someone who can give you a comfortable life without extravagant luxury, to avoid those bumps in the road?

I've already felt that passionate love, with someone who sometimes didn't even have money to eat, and at the time I felt that no money in the world could ever be compared to this love. I wouldn't triad it for anything. But would I have felt the same way after 4 kids and 20 years with him? I don't think so. I just don't believe in that shit anymore, I'm sorry. But wealth and education is way too important to me now days when I know that even the greatest love could get broken.
And I'm asking you not to misunderstand me in this, I don't mean that I would refuse to date a guy who hasn't got money (the importance is his personality and intelligence of course). All I'm saying is that my priorities have changed and I don't feel like I should be ashamed of the fact that I don't feel like being with a man whom I'd have to support with my salary alone. 50/50 would be good, I don't feel like being a Hollywood wife either.
