Why relationship sours when woman earns more than man?

Ans: How one partner views the financial status of the other and how the couple handles it is very personal. If financial status is a cause of concern in the relationship, then both partners need to take a hard look at the equation to determine if they are happy in the relationship, is the relationship meeting their expectations as individuals or partners.

Hi Ravi. My husband is 37 yo. He had a career downfall a couple of years earlier, and now is just able to stay afloat. Compared to others his age, he is earning a meagre 50k a month. My in-laws are very well to do. My brother in law as well is exceptional in his career. This makes me very insecure. When I bring it up to my husband that he should be earning much more, etc, he gets angry and retaliates saying money isn't everything and he has utmost respect at work. All these are hollow words to me being said by someone who is not excelling at work. I would also like to add that I am 31 and also earning 50k. I can understand he had a career downfall, due to which today hes a compromised position. But what pains me is that he doesn't realise how slow and behind he is as compared to others. How can I get over my bitter feelings?
Ans: Dear Anonymous,
I understand your perspective and your feelings are valid. Having said that, I would like to remind you that it is unkind to draw comparisons between people- repeatedly reminding your husband about his career downfall, or his brother's and parent's success will do no good, rather it will hurt him irreparably. And I am sure he didn't bring about this downfall intentionally. As long as both of you are leading a happy and comfortable life, comparing your life to others or comparing your financial status to others will do you or your husband no good. It's not easy to pull yourself up; support him, and motivate him, but do not remind him that he's earning way less than others- rest assured, he knows that and possibly beats himself up for it without your knowledge. I am sure he will prosper soon.

Best Wishes.

Hi My daughter get 72 percentile in jee mains 1 i dont know what happened to her otherwise she is a good student scored 94% in her 10th boards ..if i will look for some private engineering college in india pls suggest i will go with pune or will look for management quota seat for csc from banglore. Pls suggest preference order of btech college in banglore
Ans: Hello Vandana.
Requesting you not to panic at this early stage. Let her appear for JEE session 2 and the state-level engineering entrance test. Let all the results out. You have ample time to think about the available options for engineering admission. At this stage, no need to think about management quota unless and until you want a particular branch in a particular college. Depending on her score in upcoming exams, she may get admission to reputed engineering either in Pune or Bengaluru
Here are some colleges in Bengaluru: (1) R.V. College of Engineering (RVCE) (2) B.M.S. College of Engineering (BMSCE) (3) M.S. Ramaiah Institute of Technology (MSRIT) (4) PES University (5) Bangalore Institute of Technology (BIT) (6) Dayananda Sagar College of Engineering (DSCE) (7) Sir M. Visvesvaraya Institute of Technology (SMVIT) (8) BMS Institute of Technology and Management (BMSIT&M) (9) Nitte Meenakshi Institute of Technology (NMIT) (10) RNS Institute of Technology (RNSIT)
Suggestion - Don't panic. Keep cool yourself. Ask your daughter to focus more on JEE 2nd attempt and state-level engineering entrance test.

If you are satisfied with the reply, pl follow me or else ask again without hesitation.
Thanks
Radheshyam
