Do women expect too much from their men?

Question

A job (making six figures), his own home, big loads, a fancy car, and have a family? These days, are women trying to domesticate their men or what?

PS: I'm a guy and can meet those achievements, but no family, maybe a wife, but that's it. But I also don't want a gold digger.

Answer 1

i dont care about what car my husband drives. he uses it for work and we live in England and verything is close to my house. I walk cause it is better exercise and better for the environment most of the time. I only go in the car a couple of times a week, it is used to transport my husbad to work thats it.

Not bothered about his job as long s he has one. Me and my husband make the same amount of money at the moment but i wok 21 hours, he works 40 (we have a daughter).

When we met I had a mortgage on a 1 bed flat and when we got married. My husband  came on the mortgage and has paid have since we started dating. (I only bought it a couple of months before we met). I put a £6000 deposit down myself and I signed my husband on to teh mortgage when we got married. We have now sold it and bought a 2 bed place but it is as much his as mine even though I contributed more.

Have a family and be a good husband is the only important things to me which he is. Money doesnt matter as long as you get by, family is the most important thing I have.

Answer 2

I expect the man I have a relationship to have a job that supports HIM in the lifestyle he's used to.  I expect him to have his own home, whether he owns or rents, whether he lives alone or has roommates (in other words, be responsible enough to contribute toward living expenses rather than mooching off his parents).  I expect him to have his own transportation, whether it be owning a vehicle in working condition, or being able to afford a cab or the bus.  I expect him to be open to family, meaning being close to his own family or accepting that I'm close to my family, not necessarily wanting a family of his own.

The most important things I expect from the man I have a relationship with is complete honesty and communication.

Do you think that's too much?

Answer 3

Dude, if you aren't up to the challenge of being married, then don't do it.  And, before you judge women for expecting certain things of their husbands (you know, jobs, faithfulness, etc.), ask yourself when was the last time you dated a woman for her personality and not her looks?  Your obsession with your items and your money leads me to believe you are looking for an other trophy, not a companion and wife.  

Answer 4

I don't think the majority of women expect all that. We do, however, expect the following:

-a job that pays enough for him to support himself

-a residence outside of his parents' home, even if he doesn't own it

-some mode of transportation

-for most women, the desire for a family

I imagine men expect the above from women, too.

Answer 5

no way
