Dear Sweet and Sour,
My Mrs doesn’t like being a bigger wage earner than me so it turns out!! She’s a professional lady and I was a business owner when we met and married but I lost the business and a lot of my capital when the GFC hit us, because, unfortunately I’m not in the mining or a related industry.
Anyway, for the past two years I’ve been working wages and a pretty decent sort of wage. It’s just that she earns more. It all blew up in a heated argument last week when she accused me of being a wimp because her wage was significantly larger than mine. She also accused me of becoming a small ‘appendage’ man because I’ve lost my ability to demonstrate my manliness in the relationship!
What a first class bitch I figure I’m married to!!! How come in this age where women and men are supposedly equal, men are still expected to carry the burden of the entire household. What do I do here??? Maybe she wants me to walk away to find a bigger pocket?
Antony, Fitzroy, Vic
