It's important to avoid making sweeping generalizations, as relationship issues can affect individuals regardless of their career status. However, some theories suggest that the demands of high-status careers can sometimes lead to challenges in maintaining work-life balance, communication, and shared responsibilities in a marriage. Every relationship is unique, so it's essential to consider various factors before drawing conclusions.

One thing you should know is that.... you can't control a woman that is richer than you.


And the worst mistake any man can do is to marry a woman that controls you.... your own is finish

Once someone is successful whether man or woman the behaviour is the same. What a dependent broke woman will tolerate. A woman with mean will not.

The potential threat the career of a woman can cause to her marriage especially if her husband isn’t as successful as she is has always been a point of discussion. Moreover, some single men are even afraid to marry a woman who is successful in their chosen career than them. Some believe that the norm is husbands “should” hold higher job status relative to their wives. When this norm is violated, and wives hold the higher status job, negative consequences can follow: Women are more likely to be targets of husbands’ aggression, and the risk for divorce increases.

Question
is it a crime for a woman to succeed in her chosen field or earn more?

It is not a bad thing for a woman to be successful in her career than her husband, but will the woman be submissive and humble to the man? Will the woman respect, love and be loyal to rhe man? That is the important aspect that men consider!

If a woman truly loves you her money will be yours in the marriage, just make her happy and comfortable with you.
Stop that foolishness! If you wish for your partner to share in financial aspects of relationship, make that known upfront. How can her hard-earned money be yours when she is not your slave? undecided

I do not have issue with my wife richer than me. We are not in a competition. What I have problem with is when she's trying to be the man in the marriage.
It not about you but about women but there are exception though. When a woman has money, she would attempt to assume the head of the house. If she has more money, she will think she needs no man.

How many rich and famous women are married?

1. Isn't the reason the man attempts the same title the fact that he too has money and his woman supposedly doesn't. What is wrong with the woman attempting the very same when she too has money?. undecided

2. You mean in the world you live in, women who have money don't get married? undecided

When it comes to romantic relationships, always go with biological reality, instead of social reality.

Biological reality would be a man marrying a woman he can take care of, is taller than and younger than her, a woman that will appreciate the experience he can give her, etc.

If you are a vulcanizer man shooting for a wealthy female banker, then you're conforming to social reality, and it hardly works.

For example, if you have 5k naira and want to feed for the whole day, it's foolish to go and eat in KFC. Buying something to cook or a roadside buka will give you more value for your money.

Let the richer women be with men that are richer than them, and you should be with a woman that in her reality, you're a catch. It's the law of relativity.

No de do pass yourself.

very true....women marry only class and not the man

I remember when one agba one Twitter asked if women wanted to be richer than their husbands, majority said no. They prefer to their husband to be richer.

Why should it be a crime for a woman to succeed in her chosen field or earn more than her husband. ? I don't understand.

If my wife earns more then it's fine. Or would anyone prefer their wife to be paid less than what she's worth? I don't get it.

For me it's not a problem.

You are right about some ... but this CEO of yours maybe don see shege for men hand for past, and she dey look for husband desperately and had also been advised to be humble. And then this man she married also shows that he is a good man coz if na some, dem go don manipulate how to take all her properties and render her useless pretending to love her. Life sometimes no suppose hard.
