    Would you still marry her?

    kung inamin naman ng girl sayo that she loves you but wouldn't marry if you didn't have the financial capability, well... I'd just attribute this to her being realistic.. (and kinda looking out for her own as well..hehehe)

    but then, I'm a sucker for romantic notions and, as cynical as I am, I still believe in finding the right girl who'd love you for whatever you are.

    I think the premise of this question is loaded.

    What does "luxurious" refer to? Jaguars, Tiffany diamonds, a 10-bedroom house in Dasma, vacation houses in Baguio-Palawan-Bora, and bi-annual trips to Monte Carlo... then it would be wise to drop her sorry-gold-digging ass.

    It would be best to view this in the context of your fiancee's background. Is she just wanting to maintain a lifestyle she has been accustomed to? Or is she driven to want more out of life rather than the financially difficult environment she grew up in?

    Rather than relying on a source, have an honest discussion with her about her needs. Good lord, you guys are engaged! Money does matter. It may not be romantic. But it's not romantic when you can't pay your kid's tuition, or you're dining by candlelight because your electricity has been cut off.

    As an aside, if her needs for comfort are within the acceptable range, and hey, she's great in the sack, I don't see why you shouldn't give her the life that she wants if you can afford it. As Samantha (from *** in the City) had so aptly put it: "They don't call it a job for nothing." I say she should be duly compensated

    It is always difficult to judge a person unless you have been in his or her situation. Even more so, and quite unfair, if you do not know the entire circumstances.

    I wouldn't assume right away the girl is insincere. Her attitude merely indicates she has other priorities than love. Perhaps she wants to assure herself of a comfortable life, or she wants to be in a position to help her own family. There are simply too many potential factors to conclude one way or another.

    That said, what is critical (at least for me) is that she is upfront about it. If she denies it, then the guy has to really think twice about the whole matter.

    But if the guy can accept her for who she is and the way she thinks (and all the other things that may be implied - like her possibly running off with a richer guy or leaving him if his loses his wealth), and is basically happy with her, then her attitude shouldn't be a problem.

    If you're absolutely certain that your financial status will never deteriorate for the rest of your life (fingers crossed), then go for it.

    Just remember that there are still women out there who won't ditch you even if your account balance reaches zero.
