What do you think....?

I had a crappy unbringing (putting it mildly) and so did my partner. We were both lost, alone and bearing many scars when we met each other. We bonded instantly and have lived together for two years. We spend virtually every instant together and we love it. We work together, we do everything together. Our love and life together is our top priority. Everything that we do is to be together. We work to get enough money to get by, but it is not a priorty. It doesnt matter what i am doing....bookwork, cleaning or anything, I am thinking of what I can do to make him happy. He would do anything for me. We are the meaning of each others lives. BUT...I constantly keep getting attacked by people who say I am wasting my life, I am not ambitious enough. I keep getting told to get a Uni degree, get a career. We get told to expand our business, open franchises, make more money, do this do that. I am sick of it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! So what is your opinion

  1. My opinion is why are you paying attention to these fools and idiots. They are what they are and are probably jealous because of what you got they can't have. ALso it's your business on what to do and what not to do and everything else doesn't count. If you and him are happy well good for you. But don't listen to someone who is always negative.
  2. I think that you will both get older one day, you may want to form a family, have children, and unfortunately all that requires money. However, making more money and saving for your retirement doesn't mean you have to destroy your life and stop loving each other. On the contrary, making plans for the future and working to attain those goals will make your love stronger. I understand you hate people telling you what to do, BUT you are not blind, you know how expensive medical care is in this country (US), will you like to deal with bills and all those issues while being pregnant or sick and old?? Do you think love will cover those expenses?? I think you have to be realistic. Love doesn't make us blind. Love is not an obstacle. Love is not irresponsible. Love should be your motivation to do what is best for both of you and work together towards a common and shared goal. If you really love each other, you both will be willing to work together to live more comfortably and have the best to give to each other and your children when they come. That is my opinion. Good luck!
  3. It does not matter what other people think if you and your loved one are happy. Why some people try to live others lives is beyond me. They have trouble running their own affairs, yet here they are trying to meddle with yours. I say, if you are happy being where you are in this life, don't let others push you around. Just ignore them, one day they may realize that you are where you are by choice. Your choice, not theirs. Fare well
  4. If it is mutual, then good for you. BUT you should also keep it in perspective. I have been with mine for 4 years, and I have lived/breathed him almost that entire time. We were in similar places as you two when we started dating, and I think that emotional bond that comes from two injured people connecting is unlike any other... Yet I am just starting to realize that I can love him and have my own life too. I have missed out on important time with my friends and family, and I put my education (which was a priority before I met him) on hold. What you want for your future is for you to decide. But, I advise that you remember who you were before you met him, and also honor that person. Don't forget about your other loved ones either. This guy may be your great love (of course you feel that way right now)... or, someday it might not work out, and you will be left with a big gaping hole in your life because you let yourself become utterly dependent on him. For now, enjoy the honeymoon, and I hope in 20 years you will say that you lived your life to the fullest = )
