this is a fictional question. i just want your opinion on this matter.
here goes:
A person have been married for 1 1/2 years and have one kid. both she and her husband work, but she make considerably more money than her husband does. his income can only cover his personal needs so she shoulders all family expenses. she even actually told her husband not to share his income with them anymore. he has only to pay his own bills.even if they both agreed to this arrangement, however, he sometimes tells her that he get pangs of self-pity, feeling like he isnt her partner anymore. is she stepping on his ego? is she spoon-feeding him? what should she do?

Most men are insecure and they feel that providing money, even in the smallest possible way would boost their ego and make them feel that they are needed. I think the wife is overdoing it. She should not have told the husband not to share at all.
There was a time in my life when I get paid higher than my partner's income but I did not nag him though sometimes, you get to a point that you need to talk back in an argument. They say I am just patient that I don;t make this things a big issue between us but then, money should never be a problem because it is something that we can find. A good prtner is hard to find, but money is just everywhere.
