[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Why are women willing to sacrifice so much for love? Do they get a different physical/mental sensation from being in love compared to men?

I am asking because one my coworker was telling me that he recently attended a wedding where the bride was a 42 years divorced with 2 kids very successful making close to $300k but remarried to a guy who works overnight at an amazon factory moving boxes. I have noticed that for love women will sacrifice so much..they will marry a guy who makes significantly less. They will marry an unemployed man and financially take care of him and the house. They will start feeling pressure when they are the last yet to be married in their group in of friends. They will ignore red flags starting at them and get go ahead. Why?[/quote]

The only thing that is remarkable about this is the overnight work schedule, which seems at odds with what I would assume is a more traditional schedule for the bride, but that's an assumption on my part.  Everything else can be gender swapped, as noted by PPs, and is only problematic if it doesn't work for the couple.

I was a SAHM for years and nobody thought that was a red flag or a sacrifice on the part of my DH.  If anything, the sacrifice was seen as mine – giving up my career and financial independence.  [/quote]
