My mother is 73.
She still asks me what I had for lunch every single day.
For 46 years.
16,790 lunches.
I used to find it annoying when I was 25.
I used to laugh about it when I was 35.
At 46 I now realize that question is the only thing that has not changed in my entire life.
Everything else has been negotiated.
That sentence has not.
I hope she keeps asking :))
This breaks my heart.
A mother details how she just wants to be a stay-at-home mother and take care of her family—rather than working in the corporate world.
Young women, listen up!!
A man has every right to control a woman he is married to. As long as you are living under a man and he is feeding you and taking care of you mentally, physically, financially, sexually, and emotionally.
1. He has the right to tell you not to go anywhere and you must obey
2. He has every right to check your phone.
3. He has every right to tell you to stop being friends with a particular friend of yours and you must obey
4. He has every right to tell you to dress appropriately as a married woman
5. He has every right to know your whereabouts.
6. He has every right to hold you accountable when you are wrong.
For a home to function well and be orderly, a man has to take leadership and there is no leadership without control.
As a woman, a man must control you.
If you don't want to be told what to do, stay single.

The woman who wants to be a wife
and the woman chasing a husband
are not even in the same category.
One prepares, sacrifices, and adds value.
The other markets herself and negotiates benefits.
One thinks duty.
The other thinks entitlement.
One asks what she can build.
The other asks what she can extract.
Wanting marriage is common.
Being wife-material is rare.
