Women and powerful men

[DaveB]

Oh, that would be bliss, being involved with a woman who earns more than me. Come to think of it, a woman who earns anything would be nice.
Jake's Mummy is milking me dry (and unfortunately, not in that way )

Not all it's cracked up to be, ex-wife earned more than me for most of the marriage and it caused no end of problems. She still expected me to pay for most of the important stuff like mortgage etc which left me struggling and her spending money on stuff for herself.

... where's all the getting the bloke drunk and taking advantage of him???

I would volunteer, but the wife might object.

Yes, women tend to get their husbands to buy the expensive stuff, using the logic that they earn a lot more than they do. Of course, they forget we have to pay all the big bills, leaving us with nothing whereas their money is sacred and is all spent on make-up, clothes and nights out with the girls!

Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr

I must admit that going out with someone else's wife is quite fun...

Must be the sense of the forbidden or something.

It's not the someone else's wife I am worried about, not even the someone else. It's er indoors that worries me. Even if I was inclined to stray I wouldn't.

Or in her case, Horses. The riding kind, not the betting kind. Betting would probably have been cheaper.

[Jakes Daddy]

actually I lie... I did (very) briefly see a guy who was earning sh*t loads... unfortunately he was a tee-totaller, allergic to pretty much every food on the planet and a tight wad.

Oh bugger - have I been out with you ? Dont recall a Janey on my long list of conquests, but you lose count after a while

Funny how this demarcation seems to stop when it comes to divorce proceedings isnt it! Not that I would know, only what I heard.

[Jakes Daddy]

Agreed.
BTW. Mine is milking me dry in all ways.........

At least you are getting something out of the deal. 'Tis more that I'm getting at the moment

JD in "let it all out" mode

so cynical

don't think I've ever involved with a bloke who earns more than me... jeez where am I going wrong?!

Then you have something in common with Nicola Horlick then.

You won't have any problem if you give up your high flying executive job with telephone no. salary, company car and bonus and take a job stacking shelves in Tesco.
