Meanwhile, we have 5 million YouTube videos on who's gonna pay on the first date.
we are missing the real point.
The point of money in a relationship is not just about the first date.
That's fun for clicks, but it's about, do we see money the same way?
Do we connect?
Are we going to be rowing in the same direction?
Or are you going to be doing that and I'm doing this and we can never get aligned?
I think probably that's true.
And again, goes to the power of socialization, right?
Culture is very difficult to change.
We got to admit that.
We got to acknowledge that.
And when I was dating, I paid for dates.
So I don't have a problem with it.
I like to be generous.
I think that when you are in a relationship, you like to know that your partner is generous too.
Now, generous comes in lots of ways.
It could be paying for dates.
It could be planning a trip.
It could be being thoughtful and buying extra toothpaste because we're running low.
