Greetings everyone, today I join Weekend-Engagement WEEK 158 to answer one of the topics proposed by @galenkp, honestly I liked at least two of the topics but I decided on Love or Money, the first was to answer why I decided having a child, although surely many people will wonder why a woman decides to be a single mother, I think it is something that I will reserve for when my son is mature enough to ask me. But the subject of love or money also seemed very interesting to me, even if I have to reveal a little about my private life, but this is what attracts me to this dynamic, I strive to be as honest as possible and get out of my comfort zone when write these publications, I hope you like reading me 😊
Would you rather find true and lasting love or take $200,000 USD in cash?
I will start by saying that I have never been a person interested in money, I believe that it is necessary to live, to maintain health and to be able to have security of basic resources, when you are hungry or lack the basic elements of life such as having a roof, work, clothes and health, I think that nobody could be genuinely happy, the mind does not work well without these things but it does not seem to me that money is the only thing in life, for me true happiness would be to be able to do what you like it without worrying about not having to eat or where to live, that is, having what is necessary, perhaps that is why in my life I chose university courses with such little monetary value, I studied to be a school teacher and I also did a degree in arts, this wants say that for me the passion I feel for these things is more important than the money that can be obtained with those professions, that has driven my past love relationships, if I had wanted money I would have studied medicine and if I had wanted money I would have sought to fall in love with people with money, but neither of those two options mattered to me, I just wanted to be happy with what I was passionate about, having moderate economic ambitions.
However, at this point in my life I don't feel interested in love relationships, my priority is my son, if I can earn enough money for him to be well then I'll be happy, in fact I think I'll be alone for the rest of my life because I know that it is very difficult for me to find a partner who is willing to be the second place in my life, because the first place is occupied by my son, most men are very macho in my country, so I am not willing to be with any man who does not love my son. So even though I'm not impressed with the money, I prefer the $200,000 in cash, with that I could give my son a better future.
I would receive the money because somehow or other I know that the love of a couple will not come into my life 😄 although it sounds pessimistic, surely someone will comment that I think like this because I have never found the right partner, but believe me, I have felt like this for a long time and I know that my son would really enjoy it if I had enough money to raise him without so many worries, that's why, beyond anything, I try hard to work so that he has a good life despite the fact that my country is in crisis and it is every more and more difficult to obtain money, anyway I am already resigned in love.

I understand you friend, when one has a child first is him and the rest although it is needed from time to time hehehej, money is more accessible to achieve everything you want to do with your child and give him his comforts 😉.
Thank you very much for understanding my point of view, I think that mothers understand me better than anyone 😊
It is difficult for a man to accept being second in a woman's life, I also put my children first and if the $200,000 is going to be used to secure the children's future I also prefer it happy weekend blessings
Thank you very much for understand my position, the future of my son is my main concern
Hugs
When you become a mother, your child is always your first priority.
that's right 😊 thanks for the comment
When you have a child, priorities change, and as you say, not many men accept a single mother, especially in this country, but how ironic, because we should accept the little bit of boys they have haha, a crazy thing, but well, friend, if you feel good alone with your son, go ahead, that's the important thing, greetings.
What you say is true, in this country women accept men with children but the opposite is not common. thanks for the comment. Hugs
I understand your choice, and the priority focus on your child. They are treasures beyond compare!
I also hope you run across a real Man that also understands this priority, and the blessing that raising a child can be! We had two, and that never reduced my commitment to her, the heart is large enough to have multiple priorities. My family was always first, and never broken into separate lots!
A good friend of mine married a Woman that had two boys. The day they got back, he formally adopted her boys, and they became their Sons; then they had a beautiful Daughter!
So don't make it a priority, but I hope the same for you, That is true wealth....
But your choice here is logical and makes good sense!
Be Blessed!
Thank you very much for sharing your point of view and experience. Hugs
Keep posting pictures, everyone likes to see them grow up!
Be blessed!
