Why do people do this after marriage/long term relationships?

They meet the partner who has a job lets say in law enforcement, or any other job that may require them to travel alot, etc...or lets say a STRIPPER!

That person had that job BEFORE they met and BEFORE they decided to get together. Then once they are together, the other partner wants them to leave that job.

This is a pertinent observation. it is why I don't believe in marriage.
'Some' people have hidden deep expectations when they form an exclusive relationship. Sometimes it may take having children for this to surface.
But it seems , all of a sudden....their expectations surface. they want more, or different , from their partner.
And to my observations ....there expectations are influenced by societies norms.
People forget.....if it aint broke....dont fix it. Fiddling with a relationship is dangerous. Putting pressured unneeded expectations on someone, only creates friction.
and in a world that is always shifting.....friction can wear something beautiful down to nothing .

@BoobooSnafu A beautiful analogy... I could not have said better myself.
