Would you be in a relationship where the girl is more of the breadwinner and makes a significant amount of more money than the guy? (Page 2)

I wouldn't care for the most part, but might take issue if she started adopting an unhealthy amount of other masculine traits and qualities.
That's my dream, why not? I'd never date for money but if we're a power couple, that's more fun vacations for us
Would I prefer to be the breadwinner? Yeah because I’m traditional.
does it bother me? Not really it doesn’t detract from me any and I take pride in what I do.
I would not give a shit. If I was married to a woman who made a lot more money than me, that's just less I have to worry about. I haven't met too many women who date or marry guys who make less money than them or support bum boyfriends, though.
I was and it didn't bother me at all. I eventually got another job and was making about as much as her. I eventually got 3 jobs at the same time.
It's just money... Having a job is important. How much she makes, I don't care. No offense, but guys that are bothered by a woman making more money then them have huge egos.
It would not bother me one bit. You saying that, makes you sound bad. It's like you want to put down people to make yourself feel better. It's all in your head. Doesn't make you less if a man or anything. Id be so happy for her.
Sure. It wouldn’t bother me if I had more money than my boyfriend.
Why? Men are better than women? Well you are young , you have much to learn.
I don't care about such matters as long she isn't a prick about it and tries to belittle me because I make less money.
Money is meant to meet needs to survive, not base a relationship on it at least a decent and healthy relationship.
men have bigger egos than women. so it makes sense why they prefer women who make less than them.
Wooooo look at the votes... Not all of us men are like this fool.
This is definitely true in my opinion. Even the nicer guys I dated in the past always wanted to compete with me because I earned more than the.. they got a bit funny about it in the end usually. Kinda misogynistic almost
@Confusedashell123 Then they were never good men to begin with. I don't understand how that even matters. Humans are bizzare
@Paul09
Its the same reason why men don't want to date a woman smarter or makes more money than him.
What men? I'm not that man. And I do tvonow any men like that. Those men are the few the traditional, the ones that think they are better than women. And I'd wish these men would never find anyone. Ruin it for the rest of us.
@Paul09
Even non traditional men avoid women who make more money than them. Men get very easily threatened. Women go for men who are smarter than them. Men go for women who are dumber than them.
Don't know where you live. But not the case over here. And I personally would not care. Id be proud of her that she made more money and that's my answer.
It would not make a difference. What I would object to is if she constantly made a big deal about it.
Yes, those are good ones to marry because she isn't after your money.
I can't be with someone who earns way lot than me. My inferiority complex has been blooming since I was six.
I'm already there and it sucks feeling compelled to be the provider and not being effective
But you do provide don't you? Not as much as her, but you do.
I wouldn't mind. I like caring for kids and running a house. It would also free up time for me to work out and study more.
As long as I‘m not lazy doing nothing all day it wouldn‘t bother me. Great for her if she makes more. And for me. Why would you make a contest out of it? That benefits no one.
My mom made far more money than my dad. She was a MD. He started off as a professor and then a programmer after his midlife crisis. My mom still made more money.
I wouldn't have a problem with it but I know eventually she would. Women date UP, not DOWN. This is why women dump their husbands when he loses his job.
men only like to date down. they are threatened by smart women.
That's true, the number one cause of divorce is male unemployment.
@gkumar8991
number one cause of unemployment is when the wife hits 40. this is when husbands start divorcing for younger women
@shaysh87 "Men are threatened by smart women". That is a huge piece of bullshit. Men LOVE smart women, we can't stand loud, obnoxious, trashy, mean, women.
@KrakenAttackin
men want women who don't know how to do anything more skilled than putting together a sandwich in a kitchen.
As long as her and I are a team and we are working things out as a couple or as a family,... then I'm good with that. If the positions were reversed,... same thing.
When i started my business, my wife made more than me for a dew years. During covid she prob did too. Its fine. My dick didn't shrink.
