Those in committed relationships always have to have many conversations about money, whether they like it or not. Managing your finances is a crucial part of adulthood, and when you share your life with somebody it follows that this is something that you will share on some level as well. No matter if one person pays for most things or you are dedicated to 50/50, these are discussions that need to be had.

However, most couples have some boundaries when it comes to their money. The majority prefer to have some forms of income that are theirs alone and do not go towards shared expenses. Still, it is usually something that has to be talked about so that there are no unwelcome surprises or future disagreements. Sometimes, financial responsibility can be an underrated quality in a partner and besides that, a little generosity doesn’t hurt in maintaining the strength of a relationship.
