[quote=Anonymous]My husband has always dated women with a professional career trajectory (either in college, grad school, or in a career). When we were dating seriously, we had talks about our "fantasy futures," and his always clearly included having a family (a kid or two) and a professional, working wife. His mother was not a professional, and though she is exceptionally personable and wonderful, he observed she had a tough time when her marriage dissolved. Also, all the men he's friends with are married to professional women with very few exceptions, and his female friends--through work or otherwise--are also professionals. It's what he knows. If we were independently wealthy, we might find having jobs and careers "embarrassing." (Isn't that how Sunny von Bulow described her husband's pursuit of a career in law or finance (I can remember which)? :D) [/quote]
