baku_keku Posted November 15, 2023 Report Posted November 15, 2023 Hello everyone, I've noticed a trend in this group where couples seem to approach their relationships in a transactional manner. When one partner suggests taking care of their parents, the other may counter with plans for having a child or express concerns about allocating hard-earned money to the in-laws. Similarly, when managing monthly expenses, discussions often revolve around individual earnings and contributions, rather than a shared commitment. This dynamic raises concerns for me, especially as a male, as I fear that such transactional attitudes could lead to restrictions on supporting one's own parents in their old age. It makes me apprehensive about the prospect of marriage. It's crucial to remember that marriage is about "us" + "our family" and not just "you" or "me." It makes me nervous about getting married, thinking the relationship might fall behind in the future. I can't talk to my parents about these concerns. Any suggestions on overcoming this fear? Quote
