I don’t know such women who would walk out simply because they don’t get what they want, or because they are poor.
Most couples I know are not wealthy. They live in rented apartments. Need tuition scholarships. Who have to choose between rent, tuition, clothing, and food bills.
Some of them (not all) are in relationships with either very controlling or irresponsible men. Men who work for years on end in dead end jobs that don’t bring home sufficient income to cover basic needs despite the wife working also. Men who independently choose to stay in their beloved carreer because they’re convinced that despite a decade or more of struggle and tears that their next dollar is just around the corner. Men who withhold money to get what they want.
No, idon’t mean a woman should walk out if they’re poor. What I do mean is that I know couples who don’t even have the chance to improve their lot because the husband remains in his reckless irresponsible lifestyle.
The “death” of the relationship is then, not, because they are poor, but because of serious communication issues and a lack of team effort, deciding as a couple how to proceed. It’s like being married to a gambler who refuses to change his ways.
