[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][b]Just make sure you discuss money before the wedding.[/b] Do you want children and are you ok with either you staying home or hiring help or do you think your wife should take care of the kids? How are the bills going to be paid? How is the house going to be owned? Will everything be joint, or will you be paying her a percent? What if she takes her money and buys a Porsche but you can only afford a Chevy, would you be ok with that? Will there be a prenup? [b]YOU need to decide what YOU are ok with [/b] I'd be a little concerned because her biological clock is ticking...does she actually want you or your genes for her baby?(You mention you were a model and obviously you are intelligent- you are a pharmacist) Traditionally, in our society men have outearned their wives and for many men, their ego/self-esteem is connected to their salary/career/provider status. If, in your family this has been the case, you may or may not have an issue with the reverse, but you need to be completely honest with yourself and her. If friends/family "joke" about HER being the "man of the family" because she outearns you, will it bother you? In some families/societies there is a double standard, regardless of whether it is "fair" or not. Some men have an affair to feel better when their ego has taken a hit. I have seen it work & not work. Dating is one thing, but marriage with kids is entirely different. You have a lot to consid er.[/quote] Obviously the guy is with her for her money. He must not be an alpha. If he tolerates her and her looks while a high income surgeon or other high income will not then she is settling for a sperm donor.[/quote]
