Do you think it is a wise decision marrying some one you don't look up to? I mean if a guy who has a degree/education less than yours, has an age less than yours or is financially less stable than you are or just does not possess a much charismatic personality etc, you don't feel you look up to him, would you still go ahead with marrying him?
When I first met my now Husband I was a graduate with a proffessional job, was financally stable and was older than him. My Husband on the other hand didn't have a degree or a proffessional occupation, he was younger than me and was less stable financially. ...But what he DID have was a warm loving, caring personality and an honest, loyal considerate nature (amongst other attributes). I knew that he would make a loving Husband and one day, inshAllah, a loving Dad*. THAT* is why I married him. Money, status, jobs etc etc come and go.. but the reasons I fell in love with him will, inshAllah, always be there.
Are girls able to adjust with the fact that they can live with some one who they think is in some way inferior to them?
I don't see my Husband as inferior to me in any way. He is my life-partner, my equal, my soul-mate!!
If the female spouse thinks that she is superior to her Husband, than the marriage is doomed from the start. The "Superior" Wife will resent her "Inferior" Husband..
