When it has to do with love, relationship or marriage, you must sacrifice something or compromise some of your standards in one way or another. Meghan Markle is going to sacrifice a lot in order to fit into the royal family, despite being a very outspoken feminist. Her acting career is gone, the kind of fashion she is used to is gone, she now has to dress like a royal, she has to be very careful now to avoid media scrutinies. She can't hang out with her male friends like before etc. If you ain't ready to make few sacrifices, don't consider marriage. Whether you are married to a poor man or woman, there are sacrifices to make, or things to give up. Don't believe people who tell you not to change anything about yourself for anyone, they have changed few things about themselves in order to enjoy what they are enjoying now.

Feel free to reply to any comment by clicking the "Reply" button.I think there is a lot of pressure being a part of the royal family and I can see how one would think of it as a fairy tale life, but in reality, I imagine it could be pretty brutal. I doubt if many outsiders would actually be prepared for it.

I've seen a number of comments online saying that Meghan only wants Harry because he has money. I doubt that she is marrying him for money; she was already supporting herself in style. For Harry's sake, I hope it is true love; he has had a rough life, emotionally, and he deserves some authentic love and affection in his life. They will live much of their life in the public eye and they deserve to be happy together when they can step away from the public eye.

She seems to be genuinely in love, and both Harry and Meghan are passionate supporters of charities worldwide. Just because someone is a famous TV star or royal does NOT mean there's open season to criticize them.
Since Harry's mother was a casualty of the royal family, and he has recently spoken out about his depression because of it, he seems to be working to loosen rigid royal traditions. The queen has learned her lesson enough this time to not try to force Harry to marry a "virgin" noblewoman, as she did with Prince Charles.
No doubt Meghan's life will be more restricted, but she still has more freedom than Kate and WIlliam, who still have to maintain royal protocol, to some extent.

She knew what she was giving up. She probably loves all the attention and riches. I never heard about her before her going out with him. I think the "royals" are ridiculous. They are a circus spectacle and a prehistoric concept that should have died off long ago. I can't figure out who is more ridiculous, the royals or the Kardashians.

Well to quote Beth from "Rick and Morty," "He's not a pretty girl. He can't just bail on his life and set up shop in someone else's."
I personally think she's giving up and cashing in. Not blaming her, but it seems a bit of a cop out. But who knows, maybe she's truly in love and would marry him even if he was poor. But do we really believe that's what is happening here?

Why is important to you to talk that much about strangers to you with strangers to you?

This is true. When you join your life to another person, you do end up giving up some things that were part of your single life. Hopefully the rewards of companionship and love and building a home and family together will be worth it.

I hope that you do not mean to take your statement as far as if appear that you might. Any relationship necessarily involves give and take. But a relationship which requires one to give up things that are central to one's definition of oneself is a relationship which should not occur. Similarly, any relationship which requires one to compromise central and deeply held beliefs, and values is a relationship which should not occur.
