[quote=Anonymous]Eh. I was the woman in that situation and I married the guy. It ended up causing MASSIVE issues and we divorced - he never got over the resentment. It was stupid, because I was 1. Nearly 10 years younger than him so of course my career wasn’t at the same level and 2. He refused to step up at home so I could work more and invest more time into furthering my career. Unfortunately a lot of men now want a woman who matches them career wise AND who will do the majority of domestic work. Which obviously isn’t at all realistic. Probably the best thing for your friend is to REALLY reflect on what he wants - it’s extremely difficult for both partners to have the high powered career. If he expects a woman to shoulder most of the domestic work, he’ll need to compromise on their career. Is he willing to leave work early 50% of the time to pick up kids? Take 50% of the sick days?
