[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here, are there any dating websites that are geared towards people who want the traditional roles of husbands and wives? I currently work and have a wonderful salary but I'd like to be a stay at home wife and then transition to a SAHM. [b]I really wouldn't mind getting up before my husband and children to make breakfast and lunch, clean the house, exercise, run errands, do a bit of charity work at the church and make dinner in time for my family. [/b]

Could someone who loves this lifestyle give me pointers on how you deal with this lifestyle currently? How did you meet your husband? I'd appreciate tips. This is not a troll post, please don't treat it as such. I.AM.DEAD.SERIOUS.[/quote]

SAHM here. [b]No way you will have time for exercise or charity work until the kids are in full time school.[/b] Unless you want a nanny too?

Have your tried church groups for single adults? Most men like this tend to be religious.[/quote]

+2. It’s not a life of luxury. Exercise and charity work? Ha. [/quote]

Seriously.  Wake up in the night with the kids or to nurse (your husband "works" and you "don't work" so his sleep is the priority!).  Breakfast, dress kids, take them to school/bus, possible younger child playschool or other activity, outside time, home for lunch (you're on a budget, remember?), then maybe 2 hours of nap if you're lucky.  During nap you clean up from lunch, prep dinner, and clean up the house.  Then the baby wakes up and you go to pick up the older child from school and possibly take them to an activity.  Or you supervise homework.  Finish prepping dinner, serve it, and deal with the kids and put them to bed.  Your DH will probably have been gone for 12 hours or more, at that point.  Oh, and it's also mostly on you to do all school-related matters, doctor's appointments, sick kid days, and whatever else comes up.  This is my life and I enjoy it, I truly do.  But when I was young and single, it was hard for me to truly grasp what I was getting into.

If you're highly organized, disciplined, and motivated it may be possible to fit in exercise and charity work on weekdays, but it's really tough.  But if you're highly organized, disciplined, and motivated, why do you want to be a SAHW?[/quote]
