How Can A Woman Be Encouraged Not To Be A House Wife by NeekolazWorld(m): 6:40pm On Jul 24, 2019
I know this topic is quite funny but it's reality. My good friend has a serious girlfriend who is already like a wife to him. They are not legally married per say but they live together, have a baby together and both families know about their relationship and have already taken them as husband and wife but just waiting for them to decide to do a wedding anytime convenient for them.

My guy really wants to Wed her but he is worried about just one thing which is, the girl doesn't like going out, working or being far away from home except she is going to hospital or to see her parents with the baby. She is actually a lady that takes good care of their home and she just love everything house core as long as the guy gives her some money to cook and buys necessary things in the house, she is very okay.

Another funny thing about her is that she is not materialistic at all. No time for making hair, doing makeup or certain things like that. She is so content with any amount of money she is given and just use it more on buying stuffs for the house and baby. She doesn't even go shopping like that, but she buys nice second hand stuffs for herself and the baby and she is just so simple and natural.

As a man he is living very okay as the lady is taking good care of him at home and he has a very settled mind knowing that his woman doesn't go anywhere or mingle like that let alone meeting any guy that will make her cheat. But his problem is, he can't be the only one bringing money all the time because sometimes things are not so good when expenses are much so he wants her to at least start a business even if its close to their home so it won't stress her but at least she can also be making some money to support the home.

On her own side she says she doesn't want to run any business because of the baby that is 6months old now so we are trying to encourage her to do something that won't be so stressful for her and also close to the home so she can still find herself close to home and don't feel stressed trying to always go somewhere far from home because of business.

I believe there are matured people here that can help with some advice on how we can encourage her to do something and also support her to make it successful.

3. Realizing that sitting on her behind waiting for her man's money is a slap in the face to Joslyn Gage, Lucy Stone, Susan B. Anthony and the several game-changers who fought for her right to vote, to work, to own property, to be educated, and the plenty of things she can do;

4. Realizing that should the man be removed from the picture she would ultimately have to fend for herself.

Everybody is not programmed to be leaving the house in the morning and returning in the evening in the name of work. Some are meant to work from home. There are ppl who ar not comfortable with the demands of a regular job because of the time, stress, etc.
Personally, I'm not the regular job person cos I love doing things dat allow me flexibility of tym, so I chose to run a poultry farm.
let her learn a skill dat will giv her the chance to work from home. Such as cake making, bead making, snacks, makeup/makeover,even tailoring can be done from home if she sabi Ppl,even online biz is not ruled out, distribution of essential commodities.... In fact the list is endless.
All the best

Find her a job of course, or let her go to school and get educated, or establish a business for her.

Oops. I read the topic wrong...
Re: How Can A Woman Be Encouraged Not To Be A House Wife by Magnoliaa(f): 5:00am On Jul 25, 2019
Well, isn't she the 'ideal' woman... And she's what some men desire.


I think it's a mindset/personality thing first—for those suggesting that she should get a job, learn a skill, go to school and all that. It's not as if she *can't*. Nothing is holding her back. The OP says they've told her all that and is asking about how to encourage her (to work, go out and do things).

It's her thinking, and theButterfly's comment list some great ways to change that.

That man is not lazy if he has been taking care of her, their child and paying all their bills in the home. He can't afford to continue fending for all their expenses by himself, esp. when they rise, which is understandable and which is why he's urging her to start a business [that he would fund]. He's considerate enough to tell her it could be close to their home to avoid stressing her. He seems like a good guy and she should lighten the load off him and help him out with their expenses.

I wonder. That's when she would be running around helter-skelter looking for who to borrow money from. Or more likely, be waiting for people to come drop money at her feet b|c that's how she is now. Even if she doesn't want to work for her own goals as a woman, or to help out the man, she should think of her child and his future should anything unanticipated happen. Anyway, make I sip my glass of MYOB. embarassed
