Money IN Love
A beautiful designer dress for your love= Rs.2500
A romantic candlelit dinner in a 5 star hotel = Rs. 5000
Spending a whole day with your beloved = no more Priceless.
Being in love is a great feeling but, an expensive one. The days have gone when your “girlfriend” was happy with a rose stick you gave her, times have changed drastically. The idea behind dating and love affair is no more a simple and sweet one, as you fail to give a present to your beloved and you face the consequences. Some people say money does not matter in relationships. But did anybody ask them who are they? They are dumped people.
Today, being in love means you have to cut out all your expenses and invest in the relationship. Just like your relationship with your bank. As long as you have cash, the bank is good with you and once you go empty, you are out. Talking of the expenses incurred when you step into a relationship, they are as follows – Mobile Bill, Gifts unlimited, going out every day, Fuel, you should be dressed up well, and million miscellaneous expenses you never remember. As they say, “Everything comes with a cost”, love is not for free as well, but these expenses seems nothing as long as you are loved, but you definitely weep when your girlfriend ask you to meet her and you are shallow, as its month’s end. Money cannot buy love, this is for sure, but it buys everything afterwards. With the changing world today, the technology is changing and the mindset is changing. Earlier there were no telephones so the major part of expenses were saved unlike today when a person in love pays more for his telephone bill than any businessman for his business calls.
The more you get, the more you greed. Love is an addiction and you are ready to pay any cost to get your love. Earlier the lovers used to meet after long time due to lack of facilities but now since even a child has a car, it has become an everyday routine to meet and meeting does not only mean meeting but more. Parents becoming misers day by day with the hiking price of everything, affects the love relationship of their children as well. Price hike is directly proportionate to the rate of break ups these days. It’s not that love relationship is entirely based on money and this is also not true that all the girlfriends are money minded but it’s just that you need money to sustain the relationship now failing to which brings differences in terms of communication and many others. Your male ego does not let the girl spend wherever it has to be spent and this lays the foundation of relationship built on currency. The relationship can only be sustained on mutual understanding and not only money. Although the rich bachelorhood is wealthy but being hooked is still priceless and forever unlike money which is inconsistent.
