You win the lottery...

[PastoralCare]

... you won enough money that all your worries, needs, wants are taken care of: do you leave your partner?

Definitely not.

No. I'd enjoy it all with him. How wonderful it would be.

Possibly. Would certainly give me the option.

Or I might buy a house big enough for us both to have plenty of our own space and see how things went!

I might feel more charitable towards him if I had my own bathroom.

No wouldnt leave my partner

No, would retire immediately and start on our next plans.

I'd buy a huge house with an annex that he could retreat to, he would go there things all became too much. I would remain in the main house with the DC's and hire some fabulous staff to help with the parenting and domestic side of things.

It's tempting but I think I would want to see if things improved if we had no money worries first

Of course not. I would pay for the finest treatment for his cancer, and then travel the world with him. Why would winning a large sum of money automatically mean shedding your current life and attachments? It would enhance life rather than be a catalyst for change, for me.

Winning the lottery would eliminate one of the main issues I with
DH ...so I wouldn't need to leave him. I'd be much happier...and I see it as me winning, not we.
My DH views his earnings as his, so I'd view a win as mine.

That is my dream, absolutely yes!

No we would have a ball!

The only thing I know for certain I would do is pay my friends mortgage off. Her husband randomly left her leaving her with no sign of retiring, had to sell their home and now she barely earns enough to cover the bills when she should be getting ready to settle down and put her feet up. So when I think about winning the lottery, this is my biggest fantasy. And of course a few ponies and swimming pools. And a private race track and my own rally cars. Aaaaaahhhhhhhhh.

No. I'd be insufferably smug though - as he's always bloody rude about my penchant for lottery tickets ("can't believe I'm married to someone who buys lottery tickets" etc etc).

Nope. Why would I?

No, we're together for life. It'd be wonderful though, we could afford the best healthcare for both of us. I wouldn't even leave my current house, I'd just get it done up with the best quality fittings and fixtures.

No way - we'd have a blast!
Money (or lack of it) is the only thing that causes issues in our relationship.

No way - we'd have an amazing time together.

A friend of mine has always said this question was a good test of a relationship.
I'm newly single but for the last few years it would have been a huge yes from me.

No, of course not, I love him.

No , but I wouldnt tell him until the Monday afternoon after , then I'd turn up at his office at about 3pm when I know he'd be so pissed off with being there. I'd have champagne and a fancy car and sweep him away to our new life ....

(Wasnt that the ending fi m inthe 1980s where the hero , turns up at the factory and sweeps away the heroine i cant remember which one)

No, but we might leave the children

(One too many tantrums today...)

I wouldn't leave DH but sadly he says he would leave us if he won the lottery all the time. He says he's joking but many a true word said in jest and all that

Tempting, but no

No way!
