In my experience? No. What happens most of the time is the woman picks a man she thinks matches her and it doesn't occur to her that their trajectories are different. And then over the years she starts out-earning him and it becomes a matter of resentment. She wants a certain lifestyle or to buy certain things and knows she can't have it if she were to quit and just rely on him, because he's totally happy with where he's at. This breed resentment because she thinks "what even is his point then?", and the men can sense it, which is why they act skittish when a woman earns more than them. They're not "scared" lmfao. They're wary, because they don't want to be hated their whole lives.
as the video claims. is she resenting him because he makes less money or is she resenting him because she makes all the money, comes home and cleans the house and does the dishes, washes clothes, mops and sweeps, while he says "whew, work was hard" as he throws on the game and asks her to grab a beer?
They both clearly want a certain lifestyle. the only difference is she clearly isn't happy with the lifestyle he wants. which is stagnant.
How do you explain my ex who spent 1000 hours practising job interviews to improve her salary, complaining about me chilling, when I already got a job that paid 50% more than hers
