[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You sound too immature to be marrying anyone.[/quote]

I’m not. I’m realistic. I want to marry a man who is an active husband and father before anything. I ( we) are planning on having 2-4 kids and I do not want to be the sole bearer of raising kids. I will never quit my job and do not want to feel like I’m competing with a high earning partner. [/quote]
Okay, then go find someone who flips burgers for a living. [/quote]

It’s not about high earners versus people flipping burgers. I would pick a guy who is making $250k and has enough time to spend with the kids over a guy who is making $500 but can’t do that.

I think this is what OP is talking about.[/quote]

This feels like a troll post, but I'll bite. You make it sound like if OP doesn't marry this man, she can just pick up a man making $250K that doesn't work a lot of hours.  The next guy may work fewer hours, but not want to do half the work at home anyway, or have family issues, or drink too much, or make less and work more hours, or any number of things.  Do you love this person and think he will make a good life partner? Is he mentally stable? Do you and he think of yourselves as being on the same team? Does he make time for you now? [/quote]
