    Contractor's / Permie's Wives leave them after they lose their job ?

    How often do you find this ?

    Do you think in part Britian has one of the highest divorce rates because of the lack of job security these days ?


    What do you think it says about the wife when she will not ride out a bad patch in the relationship ...? apparently this happens alot.

    My wife would leave me if my earnings dropped to below £100K/yr.

    Luckily, with .NET, that could never happen.

        Yes

        Which is why so many go for a mail order: cheaper and tend to stay around. Odd really when you think about it.
        Insanity: repeating the same actions, but expecting different results.

          I think you're generalising your case to everyone. Some of us can rely on our personal qualities to attract women.

            Woman

            Generally if things get tough, the relationship gets harder and if the woman is not tied down or has options she may exercise them while you are down in the dumps.

            Men will marry someone they love regardless of station but you will find most woman marry up. If it dawns on them that they made a mistake they will do soemthign about it.

            Something for all menfolk to take on board. Woman are smarter,perceptive and more ruthless than we will ever be. Just deal with it.
