iam confused whether to work after marriage or resign next month and enjoy the whole wedding preps?
currently im working in a bank, and i get done around 5.15 pm. whereas hubby gets done by 4.30.. yeah by the time he reaches my workplace to pick me its 5..
we would be living alone in dubai.. so that wud help.. but generally do u think wives shud work such long hours?
i need to learn cooking.. and clean house etc.. been working for the last 4 5 years…
hubby is earning just enough.. my salary would be the saving scheme. but he is well off otherwise in pakistan.. and also he plans to shift back to pak soon.. maybe next yr or so..
so girls .. and guys. i need ur opinion .. would help me
keep working. you should try to take time off to enjoy the wedding prep but u shouldnt just quit. my husband gets off around 8 and i get off around 10 these days but i enjoy working, just not that late and hopefully the hours will get better. but if u enjoy working u should continue, dont quit just because of getting married.
Im not clear if you are married yet or getting married.
Wedding is something that happens only once - the 'honeymoon period' only happens once, so for you, quitting might not be a bad idea to be able to thoroughly enjoy the time that only happens once. You've got all your life ahead of you to work. Enjoy it while it lasts, and in the meantime you could also learn the things you think you need to learn - housework, cooking, etc...
see this is what confuses me.. some of my friends say continue.. some say plzz stop working and enjoy this time.. have a baby.. and u can work later on in life,
while some say continue working and take a month leave for the wedding.. what r u gonna do home alone all day?
so iam just so confused... i do enjoy working but at the cost of not enjoying these days? i paid for the gym but didnt go once.. because mashAllah my family is quite big and relatives keep visiting from pak every other month or so.. my mom says the glow is not there anymore.. losing hair.. complexion.. no losing weight..
haha.. well ive been to 3 docs at different stages of life.. (18 - 21 - 23) and all 3 have advised me to have a baby right away.. dunno the reason behind it.. but i guess i dont have a choice at that :)
thanks all of u...
and is there any1 out here.. who was working before marriage and quit job just before getting married and now enjoying married life.. by just being a housewife.. and doing something in which she is interested in actually? or is it just me living in fantasy land??
If money isn't an issue, consider taking a break and staying home for a bit so you can enjoy your married life. It takes time to adjust with your husband in your new home. I'm sure you would want to do that vs. coming home tired and having to cook and clean. It's the golden time, you can always resume working once you start getting bored at home.
take an extended leave or a long break. enjoy the shadi prep time as well as the time right after. get used to your husband and your home. you can resume working when you are ready. dont quit all together.
