[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Lots of men (my brother, for instance) marry women who are somewhat intellectually challenged on purpose, just so they can feel superior and in charge. Usually the women have other attributes that make up for this in the man's opinion. [b]I'd say maybe you should just enjoy the dynamic you chose.[/b] (My brother was occasionally frustrated with SIL's lack of comprehension skills but overall he was happy with the way his marriage worked, he accomplished his goal. Married 35 years.)[/quote] Women (and some men) tend to forget WHY they married who they married, and tend to think that "the grass is greener" - namely, because women might think another man has more money to spend, spend, spend. And somehow, their own husband disappointed them. I have seen women try to consider a man they might think is rich - IRL, the man is attracted to his own wife because his own wife has attributes that the spend-happy women do not. Men see this a mile away. Don't underestimate the other women's attributes, ladies - stay in your own lane. I say this because some of my friends are married to successful men who would never (in a million years) be successful without their wives help, and all that their wives have done for them throughout the years. The men are not stupid, they know this. Other women could never handle half of what my friends have done for their husbands, even though other women would never want to give my friends (smart in their own right) any credit. Women can be really insecure and looking for the next best thing, but IRL, it's not the next best thing for them, at all. PP, I don't think most successful men have dumb wives, in fact, I think it is the opposite. Whether insecure women want to believe this looking from the outside in? Doubtful. "The grass is greener" idea never helped women, throughout history, and the smart women know this. [/quote]
