If you are in confusionโ€ฆ Donโ€™t take the decision. I think you should delay the marriage for nowโ€ฆ Focus on yourself firstโ€ฆ

A bit complicated โ€ฆ
If u go in this reality and considering this harsh world, money does matter a lot and that too when we have struggled a lot to reach a stage where we can think off stabilizing our life .

Look for someone who is more stabilized , more importantly a good person so that you dont have to compromise either on ur family side or his .

Trust your vibes and calculations. Only you the best for you and your family and there is no harm thinking in long run :)

Hope , you get to right decision .Take care !!

If I think about the long run then it might turn out emotionally and financially draining for meโ€ฆ I have been through financial crises where I have compromised many things in life where no-one helped my family in that situation. i am independent now where i can save my money, spend it on my dreamsโ€ฆ If I go with this marriage then all my money will be given for the sake of that marriage and IDK where will I stand in future because the guy has no financial backup in case of any emergencyโ€ฆ I can atleast ask my parents for helpโ€ฆ he has no choiceโ€ฆ the guy is nice but I canโ€™t judge him basis one conversationโ€ฆ I think i should take a stand for myself this time though I need someone in lifeโ€ฆ my choices today will affect my futureโ€ฆ

Observe his historyโ€ฆitโ€™s fine to start at less salaryโ€ฆ everyone goes thro this in initial phase of the careerโ€ฆ

What u shall look for is how high he excelled in his career from the starting point. If after working so many years in the industry he is still at the same level or have meagre hike or growthโ€ฆthen there must be the reasonsโ€ฆand itโ€™s likely that the same pattern may repeat thro out his careerโ€ฆ
To understand the analogyโ€ฆu can take a look at ur career growth and u will have some reference for comparison

Apart from thatโ€ฆhe is living all alone so his expenses are also less โ€ฆ

As a daughter itโ€™s ur duty to provide ur familyโ€ฆso clear out this things as wellโ€ฆ because u will send some help to ur familyโ€ฆand not all guys are comfortable with thisโ€ฆso clarify this as wellโ€ฆnot for this particular guy but for everyone else in case u chose not to marry himโ€ฆ

Apart from thisโ€ฆI think u r better judge of the situationโ€ฆ

And many people on this post gave some inputs to u โ€ฆsoโ€ฆu can use these pointers to reach the decisionโ€ฆ

Hope this helpsโ€ฆ

All the best

He has upfront told me that he is looking for a working girl so that it will help him in futureโ€ฆ so yes youโ€™re right I contribute to my family as and when needed even if they donโ€™t ask for it. If I choose to go ahead how am I gonna manage with moneyโ€ฆ itโ€™s like whatever I earn will go away and it will lead me to frustrationโ€ฆ Today I can save some money, I can buy whatever I wantโ€ฆ he also told me that he is not gonna do a job lifelongโ€ฆ he is looking for a land to buy in his villageโ€ฆ howโ€™s that gonna help him in future? Also heโ€™s been working in one company for 9 years long and now switched where he has 10 lakh CTC where in hand is only 7.20 lakhโ€ฆ In some days I will overtake him with my packageโ€ฆ I have thought of all the possibilities where my mind says no itโ€™s not a good choice for me to go ahead as the future will be difficult for me at the same time the guy seems really good by natureโ€ฆ but you never know how he will turn out to beโ€ฆ so i am not able to make a decisionโ€ฆ I am looking for a secured lifeโ€ฆ i am not ready for any ups and downs again

Having good nature isnโ€™t gonna feed the humanโ€ฆ
His plan to get into agri sounds optimisticโ€ฆand incase he move to Villageโ€ฆitโ€™s highly likely that u will find the better job opportunity suitable to ur qualification thereโ€ฆ
So think from that perspective as wellโ€ฆ

Apart from thatโ€ฆI have seen examples closely where husband is unsure about his careerโ€ฆleaves jobโ€ฆtry something elseโ€ฆfails in itโ€ฆand itโ€™s all then slippery slopeโ€ฆwife in thr ither hand toil hard .takes multiple roles like wife, mother and working professionals.she looks after kidsโ€ฆand itโ€™s all exhaustingโ€ฆso it will be very big challange if he is of having thought of leaving job without any solid plan or future securityโ€ฆ

After kids expenditures and responsible goes high exponentiallyโ€ฆ
So choose wiselyโ€ฆ
