How Much Does it Cost to Manage a Middle Class Husband?

Re: How Much Does it Cost to Manage a Middle Class Husband?

If 1-3 hours of work in a day is excessive for you, then I would say he’s the one deserving of the sympathy here.

I’ve heard of Greek men in their 50’s threatening to leave their girlfriends in their 20’s for getting fat, but never heard of or saw it from desi men. So I’ll say this is just your own insecurity. Again, he’s the one more deserving of sympathy for this.

Wrong. Guys would prefer to do their own clothes shopping. It allows us to spend 15 minutes to get the same results that it would take 2 hours had their been an accompanying woman.

Riight, because they’d just be his kids and not yours. Women have no interest in having their own. He’s the only one who benefits if you both have kids, right?

So a Pakistani girl is not a real girl? Now that I think of it, my parents never taught me how to fight neither a fake girl nor a real one either.

Do your homework beforehand. Make sure you’re getting married to someone you can at least tolerate if not better.

Really? I know of plenty of desi women who are ambitious and married. My own mom is (well was) a doctor. Same as my khala. Where do you get the idea that men are intimidated by such women? I’d say it’s more the attitude of some, where they look down on those who don’t have that level of qualification being a turn off. A man wants certain things from a wife, such as-- enough time with her, her to be there for the kids etc. So naturally, a man will look for a woman whose ambitions are compatible with his requirements. Nothing wrong there. Men also adjust their ambitions to suit the family, so it’s definitely a two way street.
