I guess I'm the latter, cuz I make more money in my household and do most of the dictating about what we can and can't get.





That being said, I don't make big purchases without telling her. That's just a common courtesy unless ur a major a$$hole.

If you were layed off or she got a promotion would your relationship change?

Not unless you weren't running the house in the first place.

:childplease:

I give you 2 months before you make a Coli classic talmbout, "the waitress at the hotel on our honeymoon" :ohlawd:

ETA: I'm sorry for being rude and blount about it but this is the problem. You have people completed unprepared going into a union and suddenly they are supposed to change?

You been sitting down your entire relationship, now you supposed to "stand up" and do right?

Brotha please. Not saying it can't be done, but better men have tried and failed.

I'm confused about ur second statement. For ur first question, It would be fukked up cuz we can't survive on her salary alone whereas we could on mines alone. That's the problem. I would love it if she got a promotion and made more than me cuz I'd feel less of a burden my shoulders from havin to be the :cape: of the household.

When we got married, I was broke and she was making a little money. But I have increased my income quite a bit and she has been pretty stagnant. And even back then I went and worked two jobs to make ends meet.

I'd do it the other way...cheap out on the party (the wedding) and go all out on the vacation...like first class and all

Its a destination wedding in the Bahamas, so for her its one big ass party.

We cruising to Bahamas, married , we have 20 rooms booked of yankees meeting my family back home.

Then we cruise ship gets back to Miami we flying to DR.

She :ahh:

======
If it was up to me... it would be courthouse. BUT I can't deny my wifey her dream cuz I had a bad wife before. The good thing is we paying cash, no credit. Mostly done.

Sorry for the confusion. Point is your relationship wouldn't change with your wife if the money situation did.

I only think it would change of I wasn't working. UNLESS she got a higher paying job. I think that the relationship would hange due to a downgrade in lifestyle. But if she was caking and I got laid off, we would be ok. I put in enough time where I could :eat: off her for a while and no one would say jack shyt.
