[supreme oppressor]

During a money "discussion" when she is unwilling to negotiate she pulls the "I gotta give up xxxx" knowing that she won't really have to. Its emotional blackmail.
Say that she might have to, and leave it there. Its surprising what options will open up when its them not getting what they want. Usually works out fairly quickly, then on to the make up sex.....

Hmmm..well I normally don't like to give "relationship" advice..lol..I'm not Oprah thank God! That said, I have to say this.."if" your going to get married "in this day and age" and you have any net worth, income or the potential for "serious" income/net worth including through something such as an inheritance then I "strongly" suggest you aquire a pre nup..yes I know it sound so "new age" lol but it can save your backside and your life. Next, if you choose to marry then for gosh sake..marry a good one! Personally I wouldn't touch a woman with kids or seperated, going through a divorce or divorced under any circumstances..I know I am going to get a beating for that one and there are of course always exceptions to the "rule" but its true! Next, what kind of man has to "treat a woman like a princess" lol, if you have to "buy" her then expect the worse and don't cry about it when it happens guys. As for letting "the little woman" handle your money lololol..hahaha..you have got to be kidding..would you hand your paycheck over to Obama or Pelosi..lol..c'mon..use your common sense people.
I know finding, let alone keeping, a good woman is never easy..especially in this day and age but its better to be single and financially sound than married, arguing and/or broke or on that downward spiraling path. There are plenty of successful wonderful women "out there" that would never dream of using and/or abusing "their man" I know..I've been married to one for a very long time.
