How much you are dependent with your wife or husband?

Both of us can stand by its own without the help of the other. I can cooked, knew how to prepare snacks for my kids, attend their school activities and provide source of income for my family. My wife too knew majority of things in running the family. If there will be only one left in the house, one can survive and carry out the parents job with no help by the partner.

My father passed way when I was 6, so I learned from a very young age life can change very fast and you must be able to take care of yourself. My mother worked three jobs, took care of the house, bills and us kids by herself so I don't depend on my husband to do things for me. If I need a ligh bulb changed, I do it. If I need to move something, it gets moved. I don't sit and wait around for him to do it because I know I am very capable of doing this myself. If something tears up like an electrical applicance that I know nothing about, I will wait for him to get home to fix it. The only thing I won't do is set a mouse trap, or empty it. I just can't bring myself to do that.

i don't think my sig. other can live without me. no joke. i am both man and women in this relationship. i am the bread winner. i am the house cleaner, the laundry doing, the errand runner...everything. he is the game player and the sleeper. why is that. he NEVER EVER had an ID. he NEVER EVER had a job in his life and he is almost 25 years of age. High school drop out in 10th grade. the whole nine yards. yes, i love him first and then started to feel bad for him. or maybe i can't tell where one begins and one ends. i still feel both, but it is very frustrating sometimes and i feel like i am being drained. if i don't do it, IT WON'T GET DONE. it can't. so, i am stuck almost 99.9999 percent of the time. i know , put him out. i know. seriously i don't believe people are that cold though. i can be, but not that cold. he is actually a great guy and easy to fall in love with (spirit wise). and i am a person who is capable of love, compassion, understanding. he's not just anyone, he is the father of my kid. we were homeless and came up out of it with each other. we have history i can't even get into. anyway, cold logic says put him out cause i can live without him. warm heart says that i can't just do it like that cause i do love him. yes, i can do live without him for basic life things, cause all our basic life things come from me. i even fixed our messed up plumbing. no training or knowledge but i did it!

Hmmm...he actually does what I do as well. We help each other out with the housework. So for him, its not gonna be a problem if I'm not around. As for me, as per fixing appliances, that I'm not really good at. So I guess I'm depended on him in a sense.

Just because i am single now, i must make everything in house, but what is to much for me as power, i ll call a worker to help me when i need something to hard for me, to fix something or want to moove furniture, or when i must repair something in house. so, i can manage .i am not dependent as well.

I am dependent on my husband to take care of maintaining the house and the appliances; however, I have been in a position where I had to figure it out for myself and I think I could do it again.

My husband and I are not together because we depend on eachother, we are together because we love eachother. Sure there are some things that are better because we're together (I'm better with the money, he's better at cooking) but if we had to be on our own, we would still survive. We wanted to find someone we loved, not just get married because we needed someone to depend on.

I think I'd be fine by myself and I'd love to just get a little apartment, come and go as I please and be ME for ME. So, why dont I? Mainly financial and sense of obligation.

Well in some or other sides, however, if we can do all things without our mates, we do still need husband or wife to company us except that you are committed didn't want to be married

hi marianna, if my wife is not in home,if some body guide me i can do all things with a little bit difficulty,but those things done with me may or may not be perfect as my wife done,if she have to done some thing in my absense,she leave the thing and keep quite regarding dvd player playing,computer operating,etc etc,have a nice day

Hey I should say I did the most jobs at home by myself, my wife is a little bit enjoy of herlife hehe, but she cooks better than me. If without her, I would try to make something to eat, simple and quick lol

I will do it by myself

Well, in this case I suppose I'd be just fine without my love.. Though.. I wouldn't last long without her for a great deal many reasons.

I have not get married,but i think , if i need is the spouse,i must pay for her,no matter how much money
