Do you know any men who actively DON'T want their wives to work, even before kids? Does the relationship work out? How about if the wife herself has little interest in working?
6 replies [ Reply | Watch | Options ]I dated a guy like this and I ran the other way. He was very much into the traditional roles of marriage and there was nothing wrong with that. I just wasn't for me. He also was a bit controlling and I listened to my gut and got out before he became too attached. But I can see it working for two people who like this type of marriage.
[ Reply | Options ]my dh doesn't want me to work, but after 6 years at home (dcs 4 yo & 6yo) i am tired of being a sahm. now we can't stand each other because of this difference of opinion. funny because we need an income from me to get ahead. always living paycheck to paycheck because of the debt we incurred over the last 6 years because dh did nothing to advance his career. sure he kept his job, but it's a shitty one with no future - and he knew that 5 years ago
[ Reply | Options ]My DH was very much in favor of me quitting my job once he got his big job that pretty much took over the household. Seems like almost none of the guys at his level has a wife with a full-time job. We had 2 kids at that point though, it was never an issue before we had kids, and really not until his career really took off.
