I have raised this before about a relative of mine who is marrying both for the first time and hoping to have kids. The guy is someone who earns very well, but in the past has not been generous with groceries, or meals. she would be more generous on her average wage than he is. I thought it had been resolved for a while but the engagement and wedding expenses seem to bring it all to a fore again.
they are marrying overseas and there is alot of pressure on her to save for her part of the expenses, when her income is an average one and his is a large one and they had their engagement a month ago, which the cost of that being split between them was alot of pressure on her too. Is this normal .it doesnt look good to me.
I've seen dr phil shows where dr phil shows guys a picture of how sad their wife is and says how horrible they treat their wife and asks if thats how sad they want their wife to feel about them and about their marriage. I've seen stories of wives having to beg for every item they need. I would hate to see waht would happen if she is overloaded with children from him and having financial stress, while he doesnt think twice of travelling or doing anything costly for himself.
what experience do others have?
