Making more money than your S/O! - AfroChat - African American

Does it matter who makes the most? Pros & Cons?

As a woman, I would say no. I feel my income is "our" income and vice versa. The money regardless who makes more or not will be utilized in the same manner. However, I were a traditional man that believes he should be the main breadwinner, head of household and be able to support the family--maybe.

Somebody got to bring home the bacon and I know one man who ain't filling the bill so no, in mines and his cases, it don't matter who make more because more than nothing is better than two nothings. First time he complain he out.

It all depends on the attitudes of the individuals in question. If the woman makes the most money and begans to look down on the man, or the man has self-esteem issues and began to show it, then there is a problem.

...unfortunately sometimes it does matter. I was in a situation before with a woman who made more money than I and it wasn't cool with her so we had problems with that. If it's the man making more than the woman there never seems to be a problem but if it's the other way around, in most cases there is. As long as your man is good to you, is a good father and throws that dyck like he should it shouldn't matter if you make more $ than him.

Where most of us men mess up in that situation is we give our woman a reason to throw that shyt up in our faces...like getting caught up messing around and not handling our business.

I agree with Blusky. It doesn't matter who makes more because the money is still going to the same bills.
