My personal "Moving in" situation

What is wrong with working in retail while going to school? I did for the four years to get through *Tuition, Food, Car Insurance etc..* University, and also while taking CCNA at night, I lived off about $20 a week for food. Even after finishing, I had to work in retail for another 6 months before I started getting into jobs of my field. If anything, companies will respect a student whom has held down a job while going through university, it shows commitment.

I know what you are saying, but just beware it can take some time to get a job in her field. As Russ stated, a one sided financial relationship can turn ugly fast, especially when funds are low. Mostly though i think things like this just seem to run much more smoothly when both partners contribute equally. That way too you can each have a bit of your own money to spend. I know that I am grinding on this financial thing a lot, but it is one of the biggest, if not biggest cause of stress and breakups in relationships of all types.

You always want to try and put a bit of money away , just to be sure i the event of something happening..

Jam it back in, in the dark.
