I can see why sheโs still with him, heโs very intelligent. The way they communicate makes it easier to understand how their relationship works.

Interviewer : hey excuse me missHey, excuse me, miss, do you think it's okay to date a man for money?
Lady : A man for money?No, actually, I was gonna be funny.
Interviewer : No, but you're an attractive woman, so if you could land a millionaire, why not do it?
Lady : I mean, money can't buy happiness. You see a lot of people that have a ton of money, and they're still missing something.
Interviewer: So, so where does happiness come from?
Lady : Now you're being really trivial.I don't know connection with your partner, if you're single, comes from within, learning to love yourself, understanding who you are as a person.
Interviewer : Are you single currently?
Lady : No, I'm dating him, hahaha.
Interviewer: How long you guys been together?
Boyfriend: Over 3 years,
Interviewer: but between the two of you, who makes more money?
Boyfriend: She does,
Lady: I do.
Interviewer : You're the breadwinner.
Interviewer: Have you always been the breadwinner?
Lady : Yes.
Interviewer: Do you think that being the breadwinner as a woman changes the dynamic in a relationship with a man?Lady : No, I, I mean, I see other couples struggle with it, but not necessary really us. Like I, I don't care, I mean, I make more, but it's our money. Like, what mine is his and vice versa.
Interviewer: How do you feel as the man being that your woman makes more money?
Boyfriend: Well, there's a season for everything, and there's a time where she was able to carry us while I was figuring out job life with school, moved around figuring out my passion and my path.She was a lot more stable than I was at some point.
The tide is going to change, where the goal is for her to stop working at some point.And, and, uh, she would take the time out and focus on all the things that she wants to. So it doesn't make me feel any type of way.There's no ego, and there's no emasculating me.
Interviewer : Why do you think so many men feel emasculated being in a position that you're in now?
Boyfriend; Society, the pressure they put on you to do what a man does us, or you are not doing anything if you don't act like,
what the definition of a man is, and in that way, they are living to please other people and not themselves.
Interviewer: Do you guys split the bills 50,50, or does your man cover everything?
Boyfriend: We have a joint account
Interviewer: even though you're not married.
Lady: Yeah.We have a house account that we both pour into and it covers like our bills and then we each have our own fun money.
Interviewer: So if you make more, why not just cover everything?
Lady : I mean, we're kind of doing life together at this point. Like, it's not worth anything for him to have to, like struggle and not have any experiences just because I make more.
At the end of the day, we're both like trying to achieve the same thing, so it just seems silly.
