Because you’re sinking a huge amount of money into someone’s passion project, for which you may or may not have received equity before being broken up with. Being able to afford something is not a binary situation in which “yes” means you should do it unconditionally.

- sfifs 8y agoHmm context matters I guess... folks I'm referring to have generally been together for a decade... So they may have a somewhat different take on relationship.
- crazygringo 8y agoWow... no. You're committed to a life with someone and want them to be happy because their happiness is your happiness. Money is way less important than being happy in life with someone. But this is about marriages or similar commitment, not "before being broken up with", and also not "unconditional", you need to think it's good for your partner too.
