See what I mean when I say men should have money to take care of their wives/families

Well he should suck it up and pray for better times!

^^^ I'm at a loss there. I suppose we should let our consience dictate that.

People think women are materilistic when they don't want to settle for less but when you really want to think about it, who wants to suffer

No woman wants to insult her husband or dis respect him. But is she going to hear 'there's no money' for the rest of her life? I think the man must have done something to deserve the insults. Who knows maybe he's lazy, maybe he's stingy, maybe he doesn't step up to his responsibilities. Respect is earned you know . . .

Hmmn. . . . I asked that question earlier because of a certain real life scenario and it goes thus:

A man is married to a woman who's older brother is super frigging wealthy. The brother gives the man a job, him and his wife live in a guest house owned and maintained by the brother and he drives a car given to them by the brother as a wedding present. Dude's balls have been sold for real.
So when the man and his wife have arguments, he dares not talk back at his wife. So bad, sometimes when they argue, he attempts to storm out of the house and drive off to a quiet place. For where? The wife will come downstairs and ask her husband to give her the car keys, after all it is rightfully hers. She does this in front of several domestic and security staff and the story spreads. I mean, the best part of an argument is storming off or slamming doors ([size=1pt]sharap, if you're reading[/size] ) and he cannot even do that because he has no balls.
If I pull that kind of stunt with money and car and what nots, a certain man I know will leave my arse and tell me to eat my stuff. Men are ruled by their egos, their pride and I find it hard to believe there are some that really don't have any.
Bottom line is, it's not just money and stuff that makes a woman respect her man. The man's carriage, attitude, penchant for bringing you to your knees without even saying a word is the kind of thing that will make you not dare open your mouth to abuse or insult your husband. I know we like to say money this, money that but you'd be surprised to know that men with regular income still get emotionally and physically abused by their women.

Phew!
