Question

What is a starter wife other then a tv show ?

Answer 1

usually the first wife...the one a man 'learns' with...then he goes on to others...as in #'s 2,3,4,5...etc...

Answer 2

Just like a starter home, starter job, starter car - just something to get you going in life.  Except, the home, job, car are all positive things.  Nothing good can come from marrying someone because you don't think you can do any better at the time and you want to get going with your life.

You can upgrade to a nicer home, car, job.  You know when you originally got them that their time in your life was limited.  That's an unacceptable notion when it comes to a spouse.

Guys, don't marry until you can actually mean it when you say, "...as long as we both shall live..."

Answer 3

The one the man learns from.  Just like a starter house.  People know they just have a starter house for a couple years not forever.

Answer 4

The idea of the "starter wife" is based on the ever-growing trend of men marrying young and becoming unbelievably successful.  The pressure of the society of the rich and successful can lead some men to feel dissatisfied by their first wife.  The fact that the woman supported him and dreamed with him until his aspirations were claimed becomes insignificant and he leaves her and quickly remarries. (Often to a more successful, beautiful, social woman.)

The starter wife is the girl who gave him all the support he could ever need and usually sacrificed herself to allow him to follow his dreams, and as soon as he did, became too confident and left her.
