[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]16:00, my plan is to continue working. There's no way we can afford child care on one salary.[/quote]

You wouldn't need childcare of one of you was a SAHP.  :roll: [/quote]

We would have our child enrolled in preschool part time when he/she turns 2. Plus don't forget about other expenses such as diapers, formula (in case I can't breastfeed), clothes, doctor bills. We need two incomes to afford all of that plus our other bills.[/quote]

Okay, so you both work, and you do all the housework right now? Does he contribute at all to the housework?

Did his first wife work?[/quote]

Sometimes he cooks, but he's not the best cook, so I prefer to cook. He does the dishes, washes the cars, mows the lawn, and takes out the trash. Sometimes he cleans the bathrooms.

She couldn't keep a job for more than 3 months at a time, her bad attitude got her fired from all of them. [/quote]
OP, I can understand why a man would want to divorce such a woman, but you are still naive to think that *I would never stop* doing things for him.  Once you have kids, more than likely, sex will decrease significantly those first few years; house won't be as clean; dinner will sometimes consist of frozen food or takeout or cereal.  Two working parents + young kids = really hard work and some things  just gotta give.[/quote]

And if something does "give," if you have a bad day or week or month or year, is it okay for him to say screw this, my needs are not fulfilled, and go find another woman to connect with?[/quote]
