What you’re talking about is an extreme and not at all what the poster is implying in scenario #2
The independent wife does what she does out of concern for her husband because he works hard and she feels bad burdening him. That in itself is care and love. If someone misinterprets a woman stretching herself soooo thin as nonchalance and indifference…he’s not a very smart or perceptive man to begin with.
I know. I wasn’t going off of just this one example but a general case of independent vs clingy based on what i had seen in my life. I have seen way too many people use the independent thing to push away their spouse without even knowing what they were doing until it was too late.
You didnt read my post properly. I said im not going off of the above e,example but the general ideas. Independence is good until it is too much. There is a balance between being too independent and too clingy. A little dependence is important for a marriage just as a little independence is.
