How Love is Influenced by Money - And why it's Bad!

 

Introduction

Money can be a touchy subject for a lot of people, but it's especially so when it comes to relationships. Money plays a role in every single relationship we have—whether platonic or romantic—and there's no way around it. While we might not like to admit it, the truth is that money can influence our love life more than most of us realize. If you're thinking about getting serious with someone (or already are), then here are some things you should know about how money influences relationships:

Money plays a much bigger part in relationships than we previously thought.

Money plays a much bigger part in relationships than we previously thought. Money can be a source of conflict, stress and power in your relationship. Consider the following:

• Over half of all divorces are related to money issues.

• Money is one of the biggest sources of stress in relationships. The average American spends $9,000 on gifts for their significant other each year – an amount that could be used toward paying off debt or saving up for something significant like buying or renting your first home together. If you're already married with kids, you may find yourself spending even more money on family vacations and celebrating holidays together as a family (another yearly expense!). So if you're feeling stressed out because of the financial demands placed upon your relationship by time spent together as well as money spent on dates, those feelings might not be entirely unfounded!

Spending money on others makes us happier than spending money on ourselves.

In a study published in Psychological Science, researchers studied the effect of spending money on others compared to spending money on ourselves. They found that people who spent money on others were happier than those who spent it on themselves. In another study, participants were given money and told to spend it on either someone else or themselves immediately after receiving the money. Those who received a sum of money and then gave it away had higher levels of happiness later than those who kept their allotted amount for themselves. This effect was not present when participants merely thought about giving away their earnings; only actual giving made them feel happier.

This finding has been echoed by many psychologists since then, but what does this mean for how we should spend our hard-earned cash? Simply put: Spend your money generously! Whether you buy gifts for others (especially if they are close friends), donate to charities you believe in or volunteer your time at places like homeless shelters—whatever the cause may be—spending some of your hard-earned cash can make you happier than just saving up more cash for yourself!

A lack of money causes couples to argue more, and to fight over smaller things.

The presence of money, or lack thereof, can have a huge effect on your relationship. Money is a big part of life and it can cause couples to argue more often. Couples with less money tend to be more stressed out and fight over things they wouldn't normally fight over if they had more money.

If you want to avoid arguments caused by money, try taking a trip somewhere nice with your partner once in awhile! It's important for couples to do fun things together sometimes so they don't get bored with each other! We'll talk more about this later on in this article when we get into the main points about relationships and how they work!

Couples who argue over money have a lower overall satisfaction with their relationship.

Money is a big deal in relationships. It’s no secret that couples who argue over money are more likely to divorce, and that the negative impact of money problems can have a negative impact on a relationship overall. In fact, research has shown that couples who argue about finances have lower levels of satisfaction with their partner and their relationship overall than those who don’t argue about it—even when accounting for factors like income level and other personality traits.

A lack of money is one of the top reasons for divorce.

A lack of money is one of the top reasons for divorce. This can cause couples to have a huge financial gap, which will lead to marital problems and eventually divorce. According to the study conducted by Dr. Kelli M. Ruef, “We found that couples who had a large income disparity were more likely to experience high levels of conflict and lower levels of marital satisfaction than other couples."

Money is so important because it helps us accomplish our goals in life, whether it's buying a house or planning for retirement. But if you're not making enough money, how can you achieve these things? What do you do when there's no food on your table because you don't have any cash left over after paying your bills?

It's not a great idea to be stingy when it comes to the people you love and care about.

It's not a great idea to be stingy when it comes to the people you love and care about. Money is important, but it's not everything. It's important for us as human beings to share our time with one another—and that includes sharing money! It’s also worth mentioning that the amount of money you have doesn't necessarily determine how much time you spend with your friends and family members.

For example, if you're an entrepreneur who has just launched a new business venture and are earning tons of money each month but rarely have time for yourself because you're so busy growing your business, then this could affect how much attention you pay towards others in your life (including loved ones) as well as how generous they feel towards themselves when spending on material goods like homes or cars.

Conclusion

In conclusion, money plays a much bigger part in relationships than we previously thought. Spending money on others makes us happier than spending money on ourselves. A lack of money causes couples to argue more, and to fight over smaller things. Couples who argue over money have a lower overall satisfaction with their relationship. A lack of money is one of the top reasons for divorce
