non-perfect parity is one thing, but the guy has no savings and no credit score. those are big red flags to me for most grown-ups.

if there's been a recent situation where, for example, he was laid off and had to use savings; but is now on a better road, that might be one thing. in general, though, that kind of lack of responsibility and planning are big concerns to me.

what if something happens to her, and her income goes away?

there has to be some kind of partnership and ability to rely on eachother, and I fear that may not be the case with these two.

(all that said, she does already seem resentful and it's a shame she's someone who compares herself to others in the way she does. those aren't happy things on her side.)
