Good morning all,
How are you today? It’s raining in London. I had a lovely long weekend. Went to Hamel Hampstead to visit a friend. It is always good to see God’s creation and miracles. Openned up my ‘brain cells’. hehhe..I know, it’s a wrong term. lol.
Anyway, last night I was asking about who supports whom in relationship? The reason I asked this question because I have male friends who take advantage on their girlfriend. Don’t get me wrong, they work. My friends earn good money. Just that, I don’t understand why is it they ‘kinda use’ their girlfriend’s kindness?
We know, money is a taboo subject to discuss. Money can make someone happy or make someone’s life miserable, right? In this kind of relationship, there is no such thing who supports whom. Who are we in the relationship? If you want your partner to buy something for you, I think it’s a sign of ‘materialistic person’ or dependent on the partner. Not only that, he or she has hidden agenda behind the action.
Ok fine, in some cultures, man has to provide to his family. True, if the couple is married. lol. I am talking about a couple who are in the boyfriend-girlfriend relationship. How funny is that! If he or she showed this kind of ‘habit’ of asking his/her partner to buy things, food, etc, I think this is not right. If he/she keeps saying ‘I don’t have money’, I guess, that is bullshit. If we don’t have money, just don’t involve ourselves in a relationship. Earn the money and enjoy the life. People are unique, aren’t we?
Please don’t get me wrong. It’s nothing wrong to give our beloved one something. Just don’t take for granted and take advantage for our partner’s kindness.
I do feel ‘not nice’ if someone gives me gifts. I do feel like I have to repay them. I know they don’t want me to do that. Ok fine, some of them don’t want money, and what should I do? Normally I bring them to a nice lunch, dinner, or at least go for a coffee.
That was what triggered me last night. I fell asleep quite fast. Jetlag effect, still!
All right then, take care and have a nice day.
Miss my family so much.
Love,
Emma xx.
