I can't imagine being in a relationship meaning be on the same page financially. My boyfriend wants to look into buying a house and work on starting a business. I don't particularly want either of these things for myself. I more often see a life of renting (I sometimes consider otherwise), contributing to the 401k and other savings, and improving job skills and education, and finding some career I can do into my old age even if part time or something some day. So no we're not really on the same page.
