Who Should Pay in a Relationship? A Debate About Money and Living Together

How will you make his life better? Not bad.

If you live together, how will his life improve? Number one.

His life will improve because I'm positive, energetic,

cheerful,

he'll be in a good mood. I can cook deliciously, I—

Yeah, I can do everything.

What you can do has nothing to do with what you'll cook and

prepare for him. What's the benefit of living with you

in the same place?

Because he loves me.

And what's the benefit? How will his life improve?

Human feelings— are we devaluing human feelings?

Emotions are one thing, and financial costs are something completely different,

which you're laying claim to.

I don't give a fuck. I want to live

in happiness, joy, and prosperity. And I wish the same for you.

At someone else's expense.

Yes, at someone else's expense. And I don't give a fuck.

Are there any other benefits?

What are you going to do to me? What are you going to do to me?

Nothing. Don't tilt, don't get aggressive. I hear your position.

I want to live—

I hear you.

at a man's expense. That's normal for me.

I've lived like this my whole life. My mom doesn't work,

my dad works. He supports me, my mom, my little sister,

everyone. I've always lived in comfort and prosperity.

Why the fuck would I need this

broke guy? Why?

In practice, has it always been that men paid for you,

took financial

responsibility, and will continue to?

Yes.

Noted.

I've had boyfriends like that too, all of them. Such golden people.

I understand. Well, it's another question whether they bought you a lot,

because you can there.

Yeah, I'm a mercenary bitch, I'm saying it

again.

That's your ideology. Wonderful. Look.

Yes, I'm mercenary.

How old did you say you are now?

Well, if no man needs me, I don't give a shit.

How old are you?

I won't get married.

How old are you?

I don't give a shit. My life is great.

You're 22. Indeed, at this point in time, you're at

the peak of your stock, so to speak, it's worth the most then.

And there really will be men who are willing to pay

for a relationship with you, because a relationship with you will be

paid. That's a fact.

Oh, God.

There'll be some. The question is different. When he—

when you're 30, 35 years old.

That's when your stock starts to... your stock will depreciate.

At 35, he'll be at a peak

like yours at 22.

A peak of what, fuck?

His resourcefulness. I told you—

calm down.

At 30 to 35, you'll have to pay extra for his peak

performance and the effectiveness of his stock, when he's at his peak.

Oh, God.

He'll start earning.

What peak, fuck?

Eighteen-year-olds will be into him, as will forty-year-olds,

when he's 22, forty-year-old women

won't be interested in him.

When he's 30, eighteen-year-olds

and forty-year-olds will be into him.

Good Lord, men.

At that point, you'll have to pay extra.

Why do you put yourselves on such a pedestal? Who do you think you are?
