Do non-feminist guys actually exist? Does an educated woman who wants to be a stay-at-home wife/mother have to settle for a country boy or a man 20 years older to make her dream come true?

you can be a stay-at-home mom if you are just looking for normal life. many guys work in industry can earn 70-80K a year. those are usually very educated people with a graduate degree. it is unusual for educated women to stay home, they'd like to earn extra money for personal stuff.

I think you're upset because 9 months is a long time to spend with a person. Even if you didn't love him, you probably liked him and got used to having him around. You probably just miss the way things were, not actually him. My suggestion is to move on. If you didn't love him by 9 months, you probably never will. You should find a good guy with a bad side, I think that would be a good combination for you lol. Forget about Mark and the other guy. I hope everything works out! :)

Look for a man who wants to be married. If he doesn't want to be married, he's not going to want the things you want. A lot of women find good husbands in college. These people grow together and build firm foundations, which make for lasting relationships. It's wonderful to be a stay-at-home wife and mother, but you have to be willing to work towards that goal. It might not happen right away. You may have to wait until your husband is financially secure. There's nothing wrong with what you want and I wish you every success. Don't forget to add a huge amount of love to the recipe. Best wishes!

A woman should look for a family oriented person who is willing to do the hard work involved in raising a family and supporting them both emotionally and financially. Said woman should also realize that things can change at any time and if for some reason she needs to produce income to help the family stay solvent, her first commitment is as a parnter to her husband. If you are looking for someone who will father your children more than you are looking for a life partner, you are both bound to be disappointed.

What kind of guy? None, until you change your freeloader attitude. Oh yeah, why bother to spend money to get educated if you are going to sit around the house all day and not earn any money? You'd better keep the house immaculate, the clothes perfect and have a great banquet on the table every night. Oh yeah another thing, you'd better be smokin' hot good looking and be willing to service your husband's sexual needs anytime he wants (and in any way) because a guy willing to keep you at home has the right to expect a LOT in return besides "being a loving stay at home Mom".... you kind of women make me want to puke....

I know that kind of guy exists, as I am one and know several others. I think one of the key things to look for is someone who is either pretty traditionalistic or not materialistic. You have to accept that you won't have as much disposable income as a lot of other families, and so won't necessarily be able to have the two cars, multiple tvs and cell phones, etc. Guys will do that if they aren't concerned about having that stuff or believe that their kids are more important than having that stuff.

You find a guy that wants the same thing that you do. He also needs to have a pretty good paying job if you are to live on one income. He doesn't have to be 20 years older or rich, just the right guy with a decent job!

You will need to get someone who will be able to support you and your family, or someone who is ambitious enough to acheive that. But the best option is to find someone who actually WANTS his wife to stay home and take care of the kids, then you will have to make do on whatever he earns...plus he has to be cute, have good genes, love his mother, pay his bills and , oh, have a soft spot for you as well. Happy hunting!

Nope, marry a goal oriented, ambitious guy that is in college and wants a housewife.
