Women does your man..?

Question

Women do you expect or is it normal to expect your hubby or partner to bring home his paycheck to you to sort the kids and other house stuff even if you are working

Mine doesn't and I don't ask but lately while speaking to female co workers I was told he should be giving me money

Answer 1

If you want spending money, get a job. He's working for his money, if he helps with the bills and expenses around the house, why should he give you any cash?

Answer 2

I would love to be in a relationship where i didnt have to work, where i stayed home with the children and the man brought home the money, yes, in that situation the house is the womans role and the paycheck is the mans, but alas, in our times where we want for so many things, both partners have to work, therefore it should be up to both people to tend to the house, it is unfair to expect the female to do it all, its a sure way to make a relationship come to an end,

Answer 3

I am very strongly of the opinion that married couples should share everything. Marriage is 2 becoming 1, too many people try to live as though they weren't married at all by having separate this that and the other, all interests should be shared, money is certainly a shared asset. One of a woman's greatest needs is for financial security from her husband.

Answer 4

When I was with my first husband and bringing up our children, we both worked and we each put our earnings straight into a joint account. From this, all the bills, household expenses, etc., were paid. We each allowed ourselves spending money from the account and ensured that something was saved each month towards a holiday and Christmas. Every couple have their own arrangement regarding how their joint income is handled, but the bottom line is that of couse your husband should be contributing, either by giving you money, or paying the bills himself.

Answer 5

The household expenses and childcare should be 50/50, but that doesn't mean he needs to hand you his paycheck. Many households keep seperate accounts and split the expenses. It's kind of old fashioned for a man to come home and "hand over his paycheck"

Answer 6

If you are happy and it is working then it is the RIGHT way for you. He doesn't have to give you money, but if you feel you should have it then you should have it. Some of them (your girls at work) are just all TALK anyway. If you feel comfortable, then let things be as they are. If you think you need or want an allowance, then tell him.

My husband and I put our payroll checks automatically into one account and use it to pay most things. I used to get an "allowance" but he didn't take one for himself. We bought a car, so that's my allowance until our incomes increase, which they will. Do what works for you and screw the outside opinions!!

Answer 7

Do you give him your paycheck when you get paid? He should help out when your there or not but when did it become his role to just give you his whole check? You gotta let a man be a man and if you take his manhood and pride away then your f u c k e d.

Answer 8

it really depends on the way ur couple works..dont think there 's a rule for that.. If u both work and bring money there s no need that he directly gives u his money as long as he particiaptes in the spendings....
guys who give theri wifes money are those who dont want to assume the family responsibilty & think everythin s solved by money!!

Answer 9

My hubby pays for everything, bills school meals the lot, and my pay i get from work, he lets me spend it how i like. I suppose im very lucky, i do pay for things i dont just blow it, but he likes to do that. Your partner should really be doing more, get him told, its not fair on you.

Answer 10

if you are working and you both have a reasonable wage i think that you should pay for things and bills equally, providing that he does his fair share of jobs in the house and looking after the kids??? if he doesn't then i do not think it is unreasonable to expect him to contribute a bit more
