Why is that? I have no problem sharing breadwinner status with my wife. There are times I wish she did make more than I did. 8>)

The marriage allegedly fell apart after Proctor cheated on his wife with one of her close friends

There's struggling and then there is out right cruelty.

Too bad they cheat first, then divorce. Though we don’t know the story behind it.

The fantasy of every woman to explain it away.

This is her second marriage and she's eight years older than this soon to be ex-husband.

I wonder what he does for work.

I do well and my wife does better than I. Its not a contest; we just kill it staying out of debt and living happy.
I think with these two in this day in age the age difference was too much.

Wouldn’t be a struggle for me

I’m not taking a woman’s money

I had an heiress paramour once

I still paid most

And when we split I left here everything I’d acquired cohabiting with her and moved on

I was in Rio within 36 hours

Her blonde mane and blue eyes a faint memory

Women already hold the power of sex and custody threat and financial threat if it crumbles

And women manipulate cause they can’t really fight

Strategerize so to speak

If they have the money too

You’re clipped or she better be a helluva girl who loves boys

A tom boy who’s hot with money

I just don’t like it

My time with my heiress we availed ourself to her family vakay pads in London and Paris ans the Blue Mountain villa in Newcastle above Kingston town and their Great House and allspice plantation in St Anne’s parish

And their escape pods in Grand Cayman and Coral Gables

But she and I lived in Manhattan and I paid most bills and she taught at Barnard and most of her mailbox money stayed in the bank

Plus Ansley is older....two strikes of difficulty maybe....he could make more than here actually

A woman should never marry a man prettier than her....that’s an edict....a canon.

I think wives struggle when the wife is the breadwinner.

Of course, he worked for an investment bank, so he probably rakes.

It's possible she was so busy with everything else she didn't have time to be a wife.

Not this guy. My late wife always made good money and I was proud of her. DM

While this is true, I don’t think its the case here. She married him 6 years ago . He’s 34 she’s 42. She got “played” by a gold digger is more likely. IMHO. He made his money off her and just got tired of her bullshit is my guess.
