[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][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] +1[/quote] +2. It’s not a life of luxury. Exercise and charity work? Ha. [/quote] For exercise you join a gym that provides childcare. Or push your kids around in a stroller. It's not that complicated.[/quote] Walks aren’t really exercise in my book, I’m used to more intense exercise. The only gyms near us with childcare were fairly expensive, and like most families with a SAHP, we were on a tight budget so gymmemberships weren’t an option. I did stroller walks and things like pushups and squats around the house, but it wasn’t until DD was about 2 that I got to *really* exercise again, and even that was me waking up at 4am to go to the gym so I could get home before DD woke up. It definitely isn’t the fantasy of strolling into the gym at 10am and doing yoga with your girlfriends for 2 hours. [/quote] It is for some sahm. I go swimming everyday at the ymca around 10 am. My son goes to childcare for an hour. It's totally possible and my membership is $50 per month. [/quote] I use the Y too and before my youngest was preschool age, it was my sanity outlet every day. Affordable and my little ones loved playing there. Charity work...less realistic. Helped out at my church but that was only possible when my husband took over the kids for a couple hours on weekends - so it's up to how hands on he is and what his other commitments are. I'm only starting to do real charity commitments now when my youngest is in full day preschool twice a week at age 4.[/quote]
