I've drifted all over the road on this one. Does it matter to me? (Yeah, kind of). If it does, when and how do I bring it up? How much of a difference in financial status can a couple withstand, without it becoming an issue at some point?

Would love to know how you folks have grappled with this.
This one is tough. I'd prefer to make more but in this day and age you never know who you're dealing with. If she makes more and you try to be financially wise and help make decisions, she may have an attitude and somehow make you feel it in a way that she makes more than you and she can do what she thinks is right (even if it's not in the best interest for the both of you). But hey I might be wrong
