Guys, what would you expect from your wife if you were the sole provider?

[hellionthesagereborn]

Well, at that point in time we would have kids (that is when this situation arises) so raising kids, being their for our kids would be one of her primary duties (because I have to work and its not fair to the children that they don't get to have a parental figure because she wants to work too (some one has to stay with them and some one has to work and statistically women don't like men staying home with the kids and men don't like not being able to provide for their families so that is why this system is the way it is).

The second duty would be to maintain the household i. e. cooking, cleaning, laundry, shopping for what is needed etc. This is important because its not setting things up for success if he is working fourty to fifty hours a week to come home only to have to do the cooking and cleaning. Its not setting things up for sucess if both of them do this and then are to exhausted to maintain their own relationship and to be engaged with their children.

Third is to create community. This was considered vital for most of recent history. He works so he doesn't have the time to build those communal networks, to meet the neighbors etc. So she did that, she would engage with the community, decide what needed to be done for say schools (women were far more active in this area i. e. dances parties events does the school need a new playground etc. etc.), or again engaging in the neighborhood (setting up parties and block parties which created closenit communities that would otherwise not form because every one else is to busy working to be able to really do this). This helps improve the quality of neighborhoods, schools, and again creates an actual community instead of just the collection of strangers we have today.

We all have our part to play, why people think that earning money is not just the most important role but the only role that matters is beyond me.

I was that when I was married. I did everything. I made the money. I cooked her food. I cleaned. I took care of our baby. She just slept all day and did nothing.


And I was happy to do it all. I loved her with every fiber of my being. I just wanted to her love me back and treat me well. And she did love me I know. We were in love for sure.


But she was abusive. I was doing everything. We spent a lot of time together. We went out all the time. We cuddled multiple times a day. We had sex every day because she wanted sex more than I did. I did everything I could to make her happy and I was happy to do it.


But she was a rage-o-holic. And while she didn’t point it at me initially, and only towards her family. I thought I was special. Well it was pointed at me too. And I just didn’t want to be with her after a few years of her becoming more and more rage-y with me, pointing it at me. Hell, it was only like 1% of the time. The other 99% of her rage was just expressed at whatever every day. I hated it. It made me not want to be with her and I left her because of it.


I thought I was a good husband. I still blamed myself for years afterwards. If only I did something different but I don’t even know what I could have done. I already did literally everything lol.


What I could have done is been patient and give her time to work out her issues. I did love her. I didn’t want things to end. I would hav done anything and everything for her except be someone she rages at for no reason.

My hubby is the only one that works here and he just expects me to get whatever shit done that needs to be done at home. I take care of the kids (which is a lot more than in seems. Currently homeschooling and doing speech therapy for both my kids) , do all the cooking, cleaning, shopping, finances, and all the other BS.
He has told me multiple times that the shit I do is about 100% more difficult and time consuming then his job being in the military so he knows not to say anything about me not working since I'm working harder then he does.

[friendlymbflirty]

If my husband did all that, then cooking, cleaning, grocery shopping, laundry, all that would be for me to do. As well as anything related to kids if we had any. I would most likely handle the finances so he didn't have to spend time actually paying bills. I would also be sure to stay fit bc what excuse do I have not to. And anything else he wanted me to do or take care of.

[Juxtapose]

I would want her to keep the house spic-and-span. I also would need home cooked meals and sex that is fun, easy going and available when I want it.

[ConstantStateOfBeast]

As long as I see she's putting effort in wouldn't need anything ever.

[TallAnon]

Depends whether we have children or not, but I would expect a lot.

[jasco]

cooking, cleaning basically house work and good puzzy

[ReasonCalm]

The key to a man's heart is through his food. All a man wants! This is where feminism and gender roles in the modern world have messed things up.

[jimmy2]

I think she should cook. Clean take care of the family. These are hard jobs with little rewards but necessary for all in tge family to have
Above all love us and ww love her

[AFellowWeeb]

i expect her to make me a sandwish and go back to the kitchen right afterwards :DDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD

[michael1469]

Is it to much to ask for a clean house, dinner, and sex for you to say home?

[FruitAndBlueEyes]

Just some good food and massages!

[Twalli]

Mainly just cleaning and doing the laundry

[Yourman86]

Dinner, clean house and sex.

[Chasetitty]
