Should you date while living on a budget? Sure, as long as your dating money doesn't come directly from your paycheck. That's right; your dating budget should come from dividends (rents and royalties). Passive income is so powerful because it comes whether you work or not. Instead of trying to impress your date with expensive dates, make your budgeted date more memorable. If this doesn't pan out for you, then this person is not our person.
If it's not enough now, it won't be later. You DO NOT want to stay in the workforce just because someone wants nicer things. To me, love is buying each other's freedom from work. Once you retire together, then you can return to the true love of being young. It's worth the tough conversation upfront. Good Luck!
