Trust is earned: easy to break, far more difficult to build. If I don't trust my future husband, I wouldn't marry him. If I chose to marry him, then why not trust him? That said, I hope he would trust me, too. Hence, there's a difference between boyfriend/girlfriend versus husband/wife/common law partners.
And the question $8K vs $80K was a no brainer equation to me. I consider a husband and a wife a “family unit”. Why make less as a team when you can make more? Just so the husband has less extra cash to spend? Then it all goes back to the trust issue, not money issue…
And if it was not a trust issue… but rather a justification on how much your husband loves you based on the ratio of his salary to you as 家用, then it’s even more immature to choose the first option in my opinion. |
