[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]So this is why DH is always asking me if I'm disappointed he isn't interested in becoming partner or didn't work all kinds of extra hours for a larger bonus! I married my husband because I love him, not for his earning potential. Everyone in my (admittedly small) social circle would rather have their husbands around more than to make more money, same as me. [/quote] My husband was in med school when we met. I would not have married him if had wanted to be a surgeon; I wasn't interested in a lot of money and no family life. I didn't tell him that, of course -- I wanted him to pursue his dream -- but if I had thought surgery was his dream, we wouldn't have stayed together very long to begin with. Now, if he had "underperformed" as a father, I would have been really bitter. That's what I was selecting for; someone who wanted to be a full partner in raising the kids and being a family.[/quote]
