Another week, another LOH Community Contest and once again I'm joining you to answer the two questions proposed 🌼. This time the questions are made by, making us think a bit about our life, the memories we have regarding our teenage years, how we reached adulthood and about our finances with our partner.
Whenever I have to remember stages of my life, I love it because the good things are always present and talking about things about couples is also a topic that catches my attention because even though we are not all the same, sometimes we share ways of thinking and being and that's what brings me the LOH Community Contest #145 ❤️.
1️⃣ Convertirse en adolescente, convertirse en adulto, cumplir 60 años...
Comparte un recuerdo tuyo de alguna de esas épocas.
1️⃣ Becoming a teen, becoming an adult, turning 60...
Share a memory of you from any of those times.
Remembering 💭.... When the moments are good we love to remember them and why not, when we go through adverse situations that leave us some kind of teaching because it is also good to remember, however today come to my mind beautiful and good memories of my adolescence.
As I have mentioned in previous posts, in my adolescence I was a very shy and introverted person, at least much more than I am today. Despite this, I have always been easy to get along with and make friends with.
When I was about 12 years old I didn't go out much haha but I remember that I always made plans with my friends for sleepovers, any excuse was good to go to a friend's house or for them to go to mine. Besides homework (which was the frequent excuse), what we did the most was laugh 😅, once we finished any pending we stayed talking about everything there was and there will be and about boys 🤭, how to forget the high school crushes, the impossible loves 💔 which by the way I had one for which I cried a lot 🤦🏻♀️ but that's another story.
Once I was in high school I started going to parties, quinceañeras, discos (with fake IDs 😅🤦🏻♀️) and stop counting. This was one of the best times of my life, the friends I met that I still have, the memories I have with them, the experiences I lived. The truth is that I don't complain, what I do complain about is that I don't know at what moment I became an adult 😅, to start working, to start having my expenses, my independence.
My most frequent memory of my adult life is the first time I had to leave home alone, to a place I did not know, with people I had never seen before, all for a new work experience, to be able to practice my career. It was a wonderful experience which also left me with beautiful memories and wonderful people in my heart who made me part of their family. But above all I remember perfectly when I became a mom 😍, from the moment I knew I was going to be one, through the moment I officially became one and until today I am still learning how to be one ❤️.
At all stages of our life we keep memories of unique and wonderful experiences that life gives us and why not, also one or another not so wonderful that in the end always leaves us some learning. Here we will continue learning and living the best we can 🌼.
2️⃣ Comparta sus pensamientos sobre las mujeres y sus finanzas en una relación o matrimonio, ¿es o no es correcto compartir los detalles de sus finanzas con su cónyuge?
2️⃣ Share your thoughts on women and their finances in a relationship or marriage, is it — or is it not — right to share the details of your finances with your spouse?
Regarding this question, I particularly believe that this depends on the couple and each person. Just as there are couples who share absolutely everything, there are others who keep things to themselves and I don't say this because of secrecy or wanting to hide things, but simply because they allowed it and wanted to.
Nowadays, I can say that women have more power than before and there are some who can even have a better income than their partners. In my case, at the beginning of the relationship with my partner I had a better salary than him but we were not living together yet, however now that we are a consolidated family, his income is much higher than mine (even more so now that I am unemployed 🙈). Yet by neither party have we had to hide how much we make, how much we spend or how much we have left.
We have always shared this type of information, although maybe not with tenths and hundredths, but we do share the amount we have in our accounts. Just as we divide our expenses based on who has the higher income, yet neither of us feels it is a burden to buy something for the other just because, thus going outside of our initial spending plan.
For me, it is a very normal thing for couples to share this kind of information, but as I said before it will all depend on the person and the couple.
Nos leemos la próxima semana mis queridas damas ✨ les envío un fuerte abrazo 🫂❤️.
See you next week my dear ladies ✨ I send you a big hug 🫂❤️.
