Its the analogy of the situation.

Don't front out here like you don't know women with more money/power/resources than their male counterparts who aren't low-key disrespecting them or trying to hold their status over their men in subtle and nuanced ways that end up in visible power struggles.

My fukcin marriage fell victim to this. I was paying the mortgage but after that I was almost tapped out. She made more than me and was always wanting to travel. She took me on a couple of nice azz trips but ultimately she wanted someone who could take her on a nice azz trip. My everyday grinding wasn't enough to keep her attention.

Her music is already declining since dumping the breh..same predicament as Alicia Keys. Never drop the original man ladies.

I think she was just very short sighted. The love affair and the dream wedding was all she could see early on. Life just happened to us after a few years of day by day living. I am sure she imagined she could love me making $30K and her making $80K but eventually I just didn't fit in with the jet set.

5 years or so on I got me a much better JO and could afford some of the extras I couldn't back then.. I guess she couldn't see that far ahead.

Mind you: I am just extrapolating. She told me that she wasn't excited about us anymore. I told her that that's the natural result of knowing someone so well. They can't surprise you. I don't think she'll ever be happy just finding somewhere to sit still, but she don't understand that "it" isn't "out there" so she keeps searching.

Besides sucking his teeth he handled himself well.

He wasn't on some female shyt and aired all her dirty laundry. He seems to be holding her down somewhat.

Sounds like Nikki started feeling herself and stopped respecting him as a man.

I applaud dude for not sacrificing his morals & manhood for the fortune and fame.

tough to read man... You'll bounce back no doubt and :salute: to you for taking the marriage step.

But was she jetsetting before the marriage?

I just ask this because I'm always leery of jetsetting women... like overly jetsetting. Used to deal with this one chick like that and I just straight up asked her, "do you feel comfortable being at home at all?" And she said, "No. I just get restless and anxious. Can't do it."

:camby: 'd her a$$ right afterward. She still ain't married. Now if I made more dough than her and worked on her psyche, it might have settled her down a tad. But generally I'm :patrice: toward consistent jetsetters. And usually :camby: them.

Dudes need to always have something that they are moving to....that's not connected to their woman.

In fact, dudes should have a purpose that is more important than their woman. Women invest in men who have something for them to invest in. If a dude is only worried about her, then she'll just keep investing in herself.

But if dude has the goal of A and he believes in A. He works to achieve A. He sells the dream of one day having A. He lets her know how her life will be better by having A. Then, she will become just as committed to A and she will invest in A because she wants to see her man happy and she believes that A will mean a better life for the both of them.

All this is assuming that dude isn't a lame or a nerd or cupcake.

Sell her the dream to keep her on the team.

Peace

Yall better peep game. :sas2:

Yeah... she was always on the go before us. She turned me on to traveling. It didn't occur to me that it would be any sort of issue. In retrospect it is indicative of her restless mind.

:whoa: I travel frequently.... And when I am not traveling, I am a homebody... Appreciating new cultural experiences Doesn't mean ones mind is restless....

What's your sign? (No-seventies-pick-up-line) She was a water sign and she certainly flowed in each direction.
