I'm a man. I would have no problems with my wife being more successful, more intelligent, and making more money than I. However, the sad fact is, many women who end up in those situations seem to think something is wrong, and end up leaving the guy. It's all about appearances and women, even smart ones, fall for the hype.
On the other hand, women should be more than willing to attract the attention of the guy, talk to them, let them know what they feel -- instead of playing "hard to get." Men won't understand the mixed signals and go elsewhere.
Quoting: Anonymous Coward 1101259 I think you are probably a minority when it comes to men...LOL
I've never felt like my life was better, or that I didn't deserve what I earned, and I've never held it over anyone's head either.
Because the money isn't important to me, it's a side effect of doing something I LOVE.
I've never played 'hard to get'....but I have been told numerous times that I am very 'intimidating' , because of my skills, and the fact that I am an attractive, intelligent woman.
I've never understood it...
My problems usually occur later in the relationship....when they start trying to fill my life up, solving their problems, so I'm too busy to create.
They feel like their lives/problems should over ride my need to Create.
I truly had the love of my life leave me, because he was intimidated by my skills, ability to make $.....it broke my heart that he would let that come between us....because I was shining for him.
