@ anybody trying to be the sole provider in a relationship/family. Paying all the bills and the mortgage then got to explain a role to the person you're providing for.
from the conversation it seems like it's the principle to him. if he pays for everything else she should pitch in. in this case he wants socks and long johns
women should be paying half of the bills. makes everything simpler. men and women are equal so the bills should be too.
I only speak for myself but once we got married my money became hers and hers mines, one common account we both have access to, the only thing we split is the responsibilities of getting those bills paid but not the actual money.
On god!! If the housewife role is what these women want, staying in shape is a must!!
Not necessarily. Depends on her mentality regarding exercise and her eating habits.
Even then who wants an old housewife. At some point she'll be old and like a car you gonna wanna trade her in for a newer model
I mean aging comes with the arrangement
. Nothing wrong with a housewife as long as she does her part. Housewife doesn’t mean she doesn’t have a life of her own. Just has to make sure the fort is taken care of.
My wife and I split the bills. She insists it be even. Everything else we really don’t keep track of .sometimes she’ll pay for dinner and sometimes I will. But i know couples who do split the money like that and I don’t think it’s necessarily wrong. I think the difference might be you have a joint account while others still keep their money separate. I don’t see a problem with it if it works for them. We have a joint account for the bills. Our personal spending comes from our own personal accounts.Always found this whole “let’s go half on this and that” some weirdo ****, at least in a marriage, I know people that tell their spouse “yo you owe me xxxx for that”
I will say it’s odd for men to expect to go half with women. As men, we inherently know we have to provide. Nobody will take care of a man but a woman can be expected to be taken care of. With that, I don’t know why men would even want to do the 50/50 thing. I would never rock with that unless she comes into it with that mentality.Always found this whole “let’s go half on this and that” some weirdo ****, at least in a marriage, I know people that tell their spouse “yo you owe me xxxx for that”
It’s different if the woman comes into with the let’s split bills mentality. Consider yourself lucky and I hope you’re grateful for that and her.
I feel this is how it should be, seems like more freedom and transparency, plan more things together and less headache. Crazy world though where there's 20 dudes waiting in her dm queue for you to slip and lose it all.
