[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Low drama and self-sufficient.   I don’t really care if she is financially self-sufficient, that’s not my concern and I wouldn’t mind a full time mom. But, if there are things that are on her plate (we divide things up and she is supposed to gets the taxes together or call a plumber)[b] she does it without bothering me.  [/b]I will handle the things I’m supposed to do without [b]bothering[/b] her.   Basically, I want to be married to another grownup.  [/quote]

Np Define "bother".  Does it mean not discussing the problem?  If so, than you are not ideal at all.  I have no problem calling a plumber etc but, nice to talk it over with spouse![/quote]

I'm a woman married to a man, but for me for a spouse it means not having to handhold my DH through the whole thing:

"Who should I call"?  I don't know, do some research.
"When should he come?" Again, you're handling it -- your schedule. Check the family calendar for any major conflicts.
"He came and he told me this -- does that sound right to you?"  I don't know, use your critical thinking skills.  I don't know any more about it than you.
"Is this what it should cost?"  Ask around, I don't know.

There have been tasks where my DH asks me questions every step of the way so that I think I should have just handled it myself.  Sure, if there's a major issue or something tricky, I'm happy to talk it over, but when he doesn't want to do something, he just acts helpless like a robot with no brain where I control all his movements.  Take ownership of the task![/quote]

Ha!  It reminds me of that song, "Dear Liza."  I always thought that was just a silly song until I got married.  [/quote]

Reminds me of my husband, except he asks the vendor his stupid questions and the price doubles and triples. Husband doesn’t want to deal with life so pays whatever. Over and over. Pissing away money by being lazy and uncommunicative.[/quote]
