Turning 32 in June. Born, raised and lived in Iran until 2017 when husband relocated our family to Ireland. New to this platform so I thought a personal-cultural post would be a nice starter.

    I agree with most of this but I don’t think looking for a mate that is more financially secure is fucked up. I think a LOT of women still do this. My wife’s wants to feel safe and secure and her kids the same more than almost anything. I seem to provide that for her (god knows why, lol).

      You have a great point, a mate should be an adult, and an adult should be financially responsible (and hygenic, responsible, have basic cooking skills, etc). It’s not enough for a partner to merely be an adult to me personally, but that’s just me. You’re both adults, marriage should be whatever you and your partner agree you dudes want it to be.

      Edit: changed “financially secure” to “financially responsible”, because shit happens and that doesn’t make you not an adult.
