Getting all-out practical these days is not something unusual because of the economic situation. Many people can easily chose money from other things -sometimes even over their love ones. Can you blame these people or do you still value love as more important than wealth?

we can't really blame these people because if we come to think of it, it's more like choosing whether to follow your mind or your heart. it's hard, uneasy but if love prevails, then there is always a way.. more than being practical.

it's hard to choose between two necessities. first, if you love someone, you make sure that his/her future with you will be as bright as the sun so you tend to secure money to make them live a life you want them to. but when we choose to give time earning more, we tend to leave behind those we love. they often feel neglected because you don't spend too much time with them anymore. sacrifices has always been part of life, so when you choose something, there will always be consequences.=D

For me love and being faithfull in relations is more important than money,because money doesn't gives you satisfaction.But honestly I dont blame those people who sacrifices love for money because to be practical in life is not an offend and after all money is the thing which matters most.If you have the money then every person will behave well with you but if you dont have money then no-one will come near to you.This world is behind money and relations doesn't matters a lot for most of the people.So I will not do that but I will also not blame any person for that.

Well that depends. there are different reasons why some people choose money rather than love. it depends on the scenario. If you are talking about parents going abroad to find greener pasteurs I guess they aren't to be blamed because it is actually of that reason (love) that's why they opt to leave, but I guess it is a different thing if it's a romantic relationship. It is different when you get to choose someone who owns a car rather than that who just take public transportation just because of financial security. On my opinion, choosing security rather than the person means you do not love the person much. This means that it is not a choice between love and money.
