Letâs get real about it. Dating a wealthier person when you are broke isnât as sweet as you might be tempted to think. You imagine yourself rolling in cash, driving flashy vehicles and going to the best of places without giving a monkeyâs about money. Itâs all anyone would ask for, right?
Well, hereâs the truth. With all the wealth your other someone has, you will be surprised that dating your ex who didnât have much was actually way better. Of course, it works perfectly well for some people but itâs not so for everyone.
For instance, think about these struggles of dating a moneybags:
