    as long as she doesn't hold it over your head, im sure its great. some women will make note again and again if they pay/spend more than you do in a relationship. that can get very annoying.
    you don't know you're wearing a leash if you sit by the peg all day..

        I had the same problem. It wasn't a marriage but a long term relationship. He seemed quite content when I was making less than he was but once my salary was doubling and tripling his, it really bothered him. Ditto had insecurity problems to begin with.

        On the flip side, I've had guys who loved that I was making more than they were, but damn if I didn't think they were wimpy.

        Females are such wishy washy loons.

          Thats why my parents divorced. My mom took her chance after "velvet revolution" (Czech republic, 1989, comunists rule fall), she developed former family company, that was given back to us. Suddenly she was succesfull business woman, while my dad stuck on his place... He never accepted that woman is supposed to be like this and gave her hell. Thats my experience... I hope that "today´s guys" are different.

            Interesting flip side there.

            Perhaps men are insecure about women making more because women make them FEEL that way, even subconsciously.

            I personally could care less. My wife actually JUST went BACK to work because she couldn't sit in front of a computer all day to make LESS money for fucks sakes...and doubled my workload in the process.

            Now THAT'S a fuckin' pisser.

                Yeah, I don't know if I felt that way BECAUSE I made more than they did or they were just in fact wimps and would probably NEVER make more than me

                The one guy I dated who had problems with it was PERFECT in every way except for his issues with that one thing. Kinda sucked. When I lost a job once, he was actually happy

                      it wouldn't bother me at all

                      now if your wife makes more than my wife that'd piss me off big time ;)

                          seems funny that people were saying, this isn't the 1800's, who would feel insecure, etc. then you have women who admit that they felt their partner was less than them for making less money than them. why did the fact that he made less make him wimpy? because he was satisfied with making less?
                          you don't know you're wearing a leash if you sit by the peg all day..

                            I think so. They DIDN'T want to make more money. They would have been happy sitting at home and eating bonbons all day I guess it just happened that I've gotten the ones who were either pissed I made more money than them, or the ones who thought it would be great if I supported them, lol!

                              Let me add that I wasn't making all that much money either - so they had to work really hard to make less ;)

                                Imagine she only works a few hours a day, some days none at all, basically whenever she feels like, so she has a very low-stress job, so it's not like she even has to work a lot. And she works from home so doesn't need to commute.

                                Would you feel any less of a man?
                                Or would you leave her because you would feel intimidated by her
                                being the breadwinner and making more than you?
                                Or would you be happy and proud to be with someone successful?
                                Or would you not care as long as she was hot and the relationship good?

                                How would you feel?
                                I'd feel like I could quit my job.

                                            gf and lots of money

                                            Throughout the years I have noticed the HUGE changes in attitude that many women have depending upon how secure or insecure they feel at any given moment. So if she remained the same person and didn't club me over the head with it, I would think it is wonderful!!!!! I would say the best person to answer this would be a woman. Good luck getting a straight answer though ;-)

                                                    It depends on your life perspectives. If now you earn less, but you are working and in future you will get more, it's nothing. If no, it depress me

                                                      If she does not make you feel like less of a man for earning more and those are your insecurities than must deal with it. If you are bitter because you don't think she works then that to is something you need to work on. Nobody really makes that kind of money without having to work btw.
