How would you feel about being the breadwinner?

If my salary could support the things we both needed, I don’t think I would have a problem financially supporting a partner. I think a problem will arise if I felt like I was contributing way more to our life than my partner was, but that includes a lot more than money, and also takes into consideration what we’re each [i]able[/i] to do. I do want a partner that is considerate.

I’m a man and a man is supposed to be

I just want my beloved one to marry me, I want to take care of her

She can work if she wants, all I want in that regard is to make sure she doesn’t have to

Honestly yeah it can be hard but I think naturally I always want to be a provider so I would actually be fine with it as long as I make enough money to support us both & we're not struggling. I could make sacrifices at any point if I need to but I'd only see an issue if like, she wasn't helping us both in positive ways. Not money necessarily but at least helping make our lives easier in general

depends on what your love is based on.. real love or the love that comes from when he is the one to take care of you.. are men and women equal in all things.. if so it would not matter. so you need to talk to him and find out together. what if he works and makes less than you. would you resent it?
myself. if both of you are doing the best you can.. and doing it together it should not matter. times have changed.. best to you both. mark

my dream, i need a trophy husband

I’ve been the bread winner always

I would grow resentful, yes. I would be pretty supportive for a long time before that point though.

And yet so many people scream about the "good old days" when the Cult of Domesticity reigned.🙄

I already am, and have always been. It sucks.

I'm married and am the breadwinner but she really raised the kids. No resentments...
