Your wife almost never asks you for anything.
No flowers. No expensive dates. No surprise trips. When you forget something important, she says, "It's fine."
When money is tight, she adjusts without complaining.
You proudly tell your friends you married a low maintenance woman.
Well... maybe.
But there is another possibility worth checking... she learned a long time ago that asking you for things usually ends in disappointment, so she stopped asking.
A content woman and a resigned woman can look surprisingly similar from the outside.
This does not mean every quiet wife is secretly unhappy.
It means "she never asks me for anything" is not automatically proof that you are meeting her needs.
Sometimes people stop requesting what they no longer expect to receive.
I worked in geriatrics for a very long time and whenever I would do intake this was a very common occurrence. Men of every ethnicity were the most useless power of attorneys of all time. The only demographic of men who knew everything about their wife’s medical history was Mexican men. They always knew every symptom, provider name, and important dates. Love them.
for those who don't understand igbo, they went to visit their club member whose wife gave birth. they went with groceries, cooked to entertain themselves and still gave a cash gift to the couple. they did not go there and balanced for the new mom to cook for them.
Barack: You told me all those years ago that you couldn’t promise me the world, but you could promise me an interesting life. Of course, you outdid yourself and managed to give me both.
Eight years in the crucible, and not once did you melt from the heat. Not once did you let it harden you. Instead, you used it to reveal your truest essence: your stubborn optimism and unflinching courage, your dazzling brilliance and unpretentious decency, your ferocious work ethic and absolutely unshakable moral fiber.
A man's money is never your money.
i can't buy into this idea of marry rich or only date high value men cause there is zero security in any of that.
As a woman the only financial security you have is to make your own money and ensure you always have a way to make more!
You cannot:
Work full time, raise children, keep a spotless home, show up fully in your marriage, maintain friendships, stay fit, build wealth, read books, pursue hobbies, serve only home cooked meals, answer every email, and still make the 3:30 school pickup.
That standard was created to keep you exhausted and blaming yourself. Let it go.
ladies leave your man at home…
not me though, he’s going everywhere with me.😉

I was telling someone the other day, “Sometimes I get so excited while reading that my eyes jump ahead and skip whole paragraphs, and I have to make myself go back and reread what I missed.”
They looked at me and said, “No one does that.”
Please tell me I’m not the only one 😭😩
