My advice to the woman with the rich fiancé is to insist they move to a tiny studio apartment that fits with her budget. Insist that they live according to HER means. Naturally he will object, and your relationship will end. And you’ll be better off because he’s an asshole. Don’t marry an asshole.

What’s the plan if the couple in the first question want to have a family? And if there are complications in the pregnancy, labor, or if the child has extra needs and has a nicu stay or needs a caregiver? What if the pregnancy disables her? Or she has crushing POD or PPA which is frequently exacerbated by a spouse that doesn’t show up for their half of the child rearing? I don’t see him financing her needs or support. I think he is right, really plan if this is the dude you want as a partner and co parent. Even if the coparént is for a pet.
