[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Ok here’s my DW - lets hear your thoughts.

Pro’s:  
She’s a certified badass:
- highly driven
- put herself through college (every dime working multiple jobs)
- has had a highly successful/stable career
- she earns around $1m per year in her career/job
- outside of her career she’s built and runs a rental property business that produces and extra $200k ish per year. (She’s done everything from finding/buying properties to sub-contracting rennovations, to doing back-busting physical labor herself to keep a project on budget).
- she runs our household and manages our teen son’s school activities and sports.
- she’s fit and has a ridiculous body. She was an HS/College level track athlete and has always loved staying fit.  She turns heads in a bikini.
- she enjoys and makes time for sex.  The sex is good.
- she has a good sense of humor (sometimes, depending on her mood)
- she loves dogs, does volunteer work at an animal rescue and fosters dogs until we get them adopted.
- She has zero interest in impressing anyone
-She goes out of her way to do things for my family.

Con’s:
- To be successful, she’s had to run over tons of obstacles in her career and life.  Sometimes she runs over the people around her including myself and our son.  What makes a successful business person doesn’t always make for good personal relationships.
- She has to have control of everything.  One of the reasons she owns so much of our worklist is that she honestly can’t hand it off and will micro-manage that person until she ultimately takes it back out of frustration.
- she rewrites history to suit her narrative (so in hindsight all of her decisions are always perfectly sound)
- Her decisiveness causes her to make snap decisions that aren’t always accurate. She sees you do something one time - you do that something ALL the time and its a character flaw. 
- [b]Sex can’t be spontaneous, it always has to be scheduled days ahead.  No oral ever, for either of us.[/b]  
- If you do ever win an argument, you’re an a—hole and you’ll end up having to apologize for something.

Sounded like a good deal until you got to the bolded. Total dealbreaker no matter the salary IMHO.  :( [/quote]
