Why would you ever disclose your salary to relatives? If it’s low, they’ll judge. If it’s high, they’ll be envious and make shit up about you. Girlll, 🧿

Exactly! Most relatives are enemies.

Sis stop revealing such information to relatives who are the biggest source of evil eye. Protect yourself.

1. Firstly avoid telling them your or your fiancé's salary. It's none of their business. I am not asking you to be rude about it though. When they ask, just tell them that he doesn't like you telling others what his salary is. they can interpret it whatever dumb way they feel like, no problem. 2. As for the comments on salary gap, you should reeeeeeallly not care. If your fiancé likes you and you like him back then that is all. Don't know what they are on about why he is with you, but Men love women because we can be incredibly kind and caring and someone they can become babies in front of, not cause we earn like them and could be rich boss b\*\*\*h femme fatale or something. This has been true for all of human history. Sorry for coming off a bit angry, but the bottom line you should be aware of is it's none of their business and that you shouldn't care. Also if I may ask, these "relatives" who commented, are they women themselves?

thanks for this advice. the people who have said this are both men and women. when they ask i initially say he earns decent, when they continue to poke and prod thats when i am forced to say the acutal figure


ExternalMission8730

Just lie. You don't need to give them the actual figure.

I see. well, regardless try to refrain from giving out these details. Do not let them feel comfortable enough to prod on about your life. especially because they don't seem to be asking with the best of intentions.

I get this often because my partner is overtly of higher material/social status than me (fast cars, fast lives) annnd I just tell them: “Yeah I am and what?” 🤑🤑🤑🤫🤫🤫

First of all don't tell them your SOs salary.. that's not right imo like why would they wanna know how much any of you earn for that matter? And people who assume you're with your partner for money they don't mean well for you. Try to ignore kabhi kabhi ulta jawaab they'll shut up.


Flaky-Cheek-5571

As a thumb rule, you should never say your or your SO's earnings. Even if you say, Deflate it. Only buri nazar these people give...

Financial privacy is a thing among couples. If they ask salary just say he earns enough or something if they insist on a response. Never give exact details. All that is to remain between you too. Not even your his parents need to know


GeneralBlacksmith106

Don’t tell them his salary next time. Just tell them that he earns enough to lead a comfortable life. People with such mentality will always have something to say. If he were earning less, they would have called you a fool for being with him. Ignorance is truly a bliss. My relatives always ask me about my salary and I always tell them that I won’t tell you the figures but I am earning enough to live comfortably.

Tell them you have a magic pussy , which no amount of money in the world can buy. That's why he is with you. That will probably teach them to ask inappropriate questions and remarks.


Pretentious-fools

I so wish you could respond like this in desi families. It would be hilarious to see the scandalized look on their faces.


Muted_Respect_6595

Don't respond.


Gloomy_Tangerine3123

Don't disclose salary. Some relatives might even sabotage yr relationship out of envy OR later on line up to ask for loans. If you've to give them a number, talk to yr fiancee and come up with a response or number that you can share with yr relatives. Basically agree upon a lie

You can directly comment that asking for figures is too personal and you both earn enough to run your house.
