I think
it’s not that it’s important that your significant other has a well-paying, respectable job, but it’s important that he or she feels successful and a lot of times people define their success by their career and it’s a lot easier to feel successful if you’re making money.
Now, I’m not convinced of what I’m about to say, but I figure I’d say it anyways just because it fits nicely together. You can’t love someone else unless you love yourself and you can’t love yourself unless you feel successful and if it’s easier to feel successful if you’re making money then by the transitive property and maybe some sort of contrapositive in there somewhere, if you’re making money, it’s easier to love someone.
Now, I’m a believer that the truth ultimately comes out, so if your feeling of success is based on something fickle and ultimately meaningless, then the world is likely to blow up in your face. Seeing as your capacity for love (pretty important I’d say) is based on your own self worth, that foundation better be strong.
