Please be honest with me, thanks :)?

If your man wants you to stop working, will that be ok? Kindly give me the advantages and disadvantages. I am sort of, a little bit confused coz I love my present job. Will he allow me to continue with my work even though I told him my reason... so that there's no need for me to ask money from him?

Thank you.

Update:

That is what he wanted after we got married.

Update 2:

But when I told him about my reason, he just smiled at me. Do you think he liked my reason?

Update 3:

Thank you, Lady I, Lady MC and Sir C for your answers. I do love my job. Although he has the right to demand as a bread winner, I know I can manage to just stay at home but to give up my profession, I am sure, it will take some time to adjust as a married one.

Update 4:

I get your point, Lady J :) Thank you.

Update 5:

Ah, Mr. Panthom, your answer is considered as the best! Thank you. Because if I will stop working, I won't have enough money to help the needy, especially the street children and the indigent deserving ones to go on with their schooling.

Again, thank you so much :) Have a nice day to everybody. GOD BLESS ALL OF US.

    It depends on his reasons for wanting you to stop work. If he genuinely wants you to live the easy life because he thinks it will make you happier then its ok for you to decide to stop work - in this case the decision is made by both of you.

    If we wants you to stop work because he wants you to be solely dependent on him with no legs of your own to stand on then that's bad. Don't give up your financial independence if you're not comfortable with it :)

    What was his reason for you to stop? Pansy-boy too scared to have another bread-winner in the house? A little afraid of a woman succeeding in a job she loves and making money to contribute to the welfare of the family unit?

    A lot of people HATE their jobs and wish they could quit. Don't let anything take you from your job, especially not your husband.

    Yikes. Good luck with him.

    No if I have the dream job I really wanted, I would want to keep it since i've worked hard to get it eg: uni, classes. But if it's just a job at a coffee shop or something, I don't think it really would matter..

    hONESTLY?! y do woMEN always change for the guy?

    i mean every girl starts out to be herself but after she is in a relationship for long its like she turned out to be another girl.

    HE chose you for marriage, and to be with him, i mean you had the job whEN HE CHOSE you so i think deeply inside of him he liked that about you.

    i want to give you an example to prove my point:

    look its usual starts out like this: a guy sees a girl, and falls in love with her, gets to know her and ect...

    (some guys not all) start to want to change things in her after being in a relationship for a while, its usually the way she dresses up or wears make up.... " baby, u use a lot of make up, baby, ur jeans are too tight" ect...

    and the girl starts to change,

    after she does,,,, give it more time in the relationship and he starts to see a girl that he kind of made the changes on and that is just a borring thing, honestly mystery is always fun.

    then if a girl so dressed up wearing the tight or mini skirt passes by those couple, that guy starts to stare and wonder what if he was with her!!!!!

    so DONT CHANGE FOR HIM, I MEAN IT, even if he says he doesnt like it, trust me if he didnt like somehing in you he would've mentioned it before marriage. but now its just the controlling thing, stay interesting and a mystery to him if you wana keep him!

    This kinda stuff should be discussed before getting married.

    if you only reason is so that you don't have to take his money, then husbands are really nice he'd proble tell you to quit. but if you just like it tell him he'd let you keep it he loves you!!
