I knew women who stayed in unhappy marriages (often abusive marriages) because they couldn’t afford to leave. They quit their job to be homemakers and became fully dependent on their husbands. And they couldn’t leave because they’re unable to support themselves. How will they support themselves and their kids with no job? And it’s not easy to get a job when you went MIA from the workforce for years. Employers hate gaps on resumes. This is why I will never depend on a partner 100% financially
