Not long ago, I received a message from my father asking, “Do you have enough money?” At that moment, I felt quite warm because being cared for by someone feels so wonderful.
My father is not good with words. He was strict with me when I was young, and I often got punished for my mistakes. Back then, my father seemed extremely strict to me. Later, when I went to college and moved to a new city, I started to miss my father’s nagging in my ear.
As people grow older, they feel more and more lonely. Having someone who cares about you at any moment is the happiest thing. After graduation, I moved to work in another city, so I rarely went home. At first, my father would call me all the time, wanting to talk every day.
I was both looking forward to and dreading his calls. I longed to hear his familiar voice, but I was afraid of his concern.
I remember once when I was busy with a meeting, my father called to say, “Daughter, our pig gave birth again this year. I’ll fatten it up to sell for a good price.” I was too preoccupied to respond and just said, “I’m busy with work. Can you stop calling me every day? I have a lot to deal with.” Then I quickly hung up. Later, I felt guilty because I knew my father must have been extremely disappointed when I hung up.
After that, my father stopped calling me every few days. Instead, he would send me messages about happy things at home, always adding, “It’s okay, you don’t have to reply if you’re busy with work. Everything is fine at home. I just want to make sure you’re safe.”
I often forgot to reply due to work, but my father still persisted in messaging me.
A few days ago, I received a text from my father that made me realize that perhaps no man could love me like my father does.
I called my father, and his familiar voice came through the phone, “Hey, daughter, are you not busy today? Besides work, take care of your health.” After hearing this, tears welled up in my eyes, because only he would unconditionally tolerate and cherish me.
“Do you have enough money?” This seemingly simple question made me feel loved. It’s even more practical than saying “I love you.” Money doesn’t come easily, but a man who is willing to spend on you unconditionally truly loves you.
Some say, “What kind of person should you marry?” The answer is simple: find someone who loves you as much as your father does.
I once saw a girl in my social circle lamenting that she had been with her boyfriend for over 4 years and had never received a decent gift. She knew her boyfriend’s family wasn’t well-off, so she never made any demands. She paid for meals and movies herself.
Later, her boyfriend started working and earned 5000 dollars a month. He promised to buy her a 500-dollar makeup item, but he didn’t fulfill the promise for 3 months. Someone in the comments revealed a painful truth: a man who doesn’t spend money on you doesn’t truly love you.
Although love cannot be measured by material things, can a love without material support bring happiness? The answer varies. But one thing is certain: a man who is unwilling to spend on you doesn’t love you.
Is there anyone willing to spend money on you? Besides parents, there are very few men who are willing to spend on you unconditionally. Everyone works hard for their money, so if a man is unwilling to spend on you, it means you’re not worth it to him.
I once heard this saying: a woman truly in love with a man is reluctant to ask him for money, and a man truly in love with a woman is willing to give for her.
Who is willing to spend money on us without hesitation? Only those who deeply love us. No matter where we are born, we can always receive care from our parents. They save and scrimp for us, preferring to go without themselves rather than make our lives difficult.
Is money important? Yes, it is. Money is never enough for anyone, but only those who truly love you are willing to give unconditionally.
Someone who loves you will always worry about you, and their attitude towards you shows how much they love you.
In the future, I hope all girls can marry someone who loves them like their father does. Maybe he doesn’t have much material wealth, but he is willing to give for you. Perhaps he isn’t good with words, but he always proves it through his actions. I hope you find your happiness and your one true love.
