A video of a woman saying that she does not need her and her husband to 'look good together', but appreciated him for being a provider has taken the internet by storm, and is leaving the online world in splits.
In an interview, the women is asked to share her views on the question of "looks vs money" in the context of relationship choices.
The woman, when asked to share her story by the interviewer, says, "I don’t think we look good together, and I don’t believe in that also. I think I look good, and his wallet is cute — that’s what I’m worried about."
"I don’t mind if a guy is not looking cute, but his wallet has to be cute," she added.
She says her story is a 15-year-long one, and how her husband has always supported her aspirations, “It’s actually a 15-year-long story, but the good part is every time I want something, he is always there. He says, ‘Maybe you want this, I can give you even better than that.’ So I think that is the best part about our relationship, and I really enjoy that.”
Many netizens supported her for her honesty.
"They’re husband and wife. She openly said she’s with him only for money. He’s not good-looking, but his wallet is big enough to keep her happy," a user wrote in support of the woman.
"That’s the most honest relationship. Things are absolutely clear — how often does this happen?" another user commented.
As one side applauded her, others scrutinised her remarks, calling it "heartbreaking."
A user on Instagram commented on the video, "This is so sad...heartbreaking for this man, being spoken about like he means nothing more than his wallet. Some women give all women a bad name...damn!"
"Respect goes both ways. Key to a successful relationship:) you should never, under any circumstances speak about your partner in such a way," another user on the platform added.
The woman's statements has ignited a debate on priorities in a relationship, especially in the modern world. Though many users found it a humourous take on the idea of prioritizing looks and money over the other, many found the take to be disrespectful.
