Was the woman wrong for leaving her man in this situation?

Depends on if she was purposely being wasteful. If you’re busting your ass to make twice what the partner makes and they’re wasting resources it’s natural to tell them to pick up the slack.
I dealt with this with my ex. We were living together and I was handling all of the bills. She was doing all the cleaning and cooking (and doing a great job of it) so I had no problem with the setup. And I'd give her a couple hundred a week of spending money. She got mad when I told her stop spending $10 a day just on Starbucks. So she decided she wanted to get a job so she has her own money to spend. So since she was now working she wanted me to split cooking and cleaning duties with her. At which point I told her she needs to start kicking in on a couple of bills. Not even half but just handle the cable bill. She got mad that I even asked. I broke down to her that her getting a job makes my life harder while not benefiting me at all. And how all this stemmed from her not being willing to sacrifice one way or the other.

She also got mad that and called me cheap because I was wanting to build my savings up. Some women don't want to be treated like or act like adults at all.

She was right, especially since men expect you to do all the cooking, cleaning, and most of the child care and then you also have to pay for half of everything even though you make a lot less. Might as well not deal with the headache of having a man and do it on your own. :yeshrug:
I never met a female within 10 years of me in EITHER direction that could cook/clean better than me so...

"Sis said she would just rather pay all her bills and not be bothered"

dumb ass female logic. Some people are too stubborn and stupid to build anything special with.

Fam, shyt makes no sense. So hypothetically she gets mad for having to pay $75 with a husband, and now will pay $150 by herself :russ:.

Shorty using that as an excuse. She leaving for another reason.

She was right. This is unfair in any situation tbh. He makes double what she makes, he should be paying more.
So that means youre cool with female breadwinners paying child support/alimony after a divorce correct?

There's a lot of info being omitted in this case. People look at things on the surface and have knee-jerk reactions

Now, imagine a woman makes twice your income but wants you to pay the same amount of bills she pays, wants you to cook and clean, and you have to deal with all her other bs you’re gonna be like “I might as well just be single :heh:
