A netizen recently posted online about how her lady friends were force to quite their high income jobs to satisfy their husband’s ego.
Here is the post:
I think guys need to be a lot less sensitive on some things. I had a long talk with my lady friends and apparently, some of them gave up good-paying jobs because their husbands couldn’t stand them earning more. Or if the lady is in the same field and has a higher rank.
Or higher degree of education. Be more confident in yourself and stop comparing yourself and feeling less manly. Your lady loves you for who you are.
What netizens think:
- I think some people may blame their partner as “too sensitive/egoistic” when it’s them who want to leave for someone better.
- That kind of mentality is pre-boomer. Couples should earn as much as they can, but they should not compare with others.
- If the woman taller than me i turn off. Its a natural reaction.
- If my wife earn more than me I will be very happy, If I lose my job the family won’t die. So I don’t really care if she earns more than me. As long she is working I am happy.
- All these Egoistic people sounds like two of my midget friends.
