As a happy wife, I don’t aggree on this one. I am not a feminist, I am feminine, but at the same time I enjoy earning my own money and stacking sats. We split out bills 50/50 and I’m genuinely happy with that. He offered to provide, but I want to pay my part cause I want him to know I’m with him out of love, not money… I think it’s great if a man chooses to provide, but it shouldn’t be an obligation for all men. Also, letting women pay can actually help men to spot gold diggers early on…

I’ll add a disclaimer though: we don’t have kids (yet), so maybe I’ll change my mind later 😅. But for now, 50/50 feels right for us
It seems like an appropriate disclaimer 😅
I believe parenthood somehow completes one’s self, as in giving its true purpose.
When you have kids, remember two pieces of advice of a random Nostr guy: 1, be generous, and have as many kids as you can. There is no greater joy and no greater ROI in life fulfillment. Low time preference always pays off. Al carajo with all those little, close-minded people that have two kids and no more because “it’s enough”. Since when just this love is enough?
And 2, your job as a parent is to raise kids so that they are successful in leaving your nest. So, your number one priority, and the person who will remain after the kids leave, is your spouse. Treat your husband like when you were still dating even when you have kids.
There are few sure ways of ruining a marriage. Forgetting about the spouse and living solely for the kids is one of them.
PS. This applies for husbands exactly in the same way, but you mentioned you’re a wife
Thanks nostr:nprofile1qqsx59l30ml9xfk4nmwywq9qr7t8lg4qxj4zchj89sly02uxa0at49cpp4mhxue69uhkummn9ekx7mqpzpmhxue69uhkummnw3ezumrpdejqyy3qwq for your advice! 💜 You sound like a very wise man, will try to put this in practice when kids come!
I disagree but you said it such a respectful way, i felt like a zap was appropriate.
🧡👊🏻🍻
LOL, most of the dudes I know who run bitcoin startups wouldn’t even be able to afford to do it if their wives weren’t financially supporting them.
