Being able to support yourself. That’s the key. That’s what I tell my sister. It’s all right to hope for someone who’ll earn a for the household while you take care of the kids and shop for lawn. However you have to prepare yourself for the worst case scenario. What if you husband turns out to be a douche. What if you have kids and then he turns into a douche. You’ll have to put up with him if you can’t support yourself and the kids(cause you’re the only parent that cares for them). You’ll be too scared.
I tell my sis, hey I might turn into a douche too and not help you out, not that I plan on doing that. But people change and you yourself are the only one you can depend on.
