How do I stop resenting my partner over money and keep loving them?

Resentment is love that's been swallowed. Mirabai didn't pretend grief away—she sang it. Your frustration that your partner isn't earning enough, or spends too much, or can't "fix" things—that frustration is real. But when you stop naming it and start storing it, it poisons everything. Here's what matters: separate the person from the circumstance. Your partner isn't *choosing* financial stress to hurt you. They're struggling too. You can be angry at the situation and tender toward them at the same time. Both are true. Try this: once a week, say one specific thing you appreciated about them that had nothing to do with money. Not forced—genuine. "You made me laugh today," or "You tried, even when you were tired." This keeps the love alive while you're both carrying something heavy. If resentment is building faster than appreciation, that's a signal. Maybe you need to talk to someone together—a therapist, a counselor. Not because your relationship is failing, but because resentment is easier to release early than to live with for years. Mirabai's devotion teaches that love examined—brought into the light—survives anything. Including money trouble.
