Provider marriage

Provider marriage questionnaire

“The man provides and the woman creates a home” is not specific enough. A sustainable voluntary model requires shared understanding of lifestyle, both contributions, access to money, and what happens during a crisis.

1

What exactly does provision include?

Housing, medical care, transportation, travel, personal spending, and family support.

2

How is a reasonable lifestyle defined?

Discuss the budget, review schedule, and boundaries around optional spending.

3

What contribution is expected from the woman?

Home, children, emotional support, social life, or a different division.

4

May the woman choose to work?

Voluntarily, under certain conditions, or with an expected financial contribution.

5

How is her financial security protected?

A personal reserve, separate property, insurance, and independent professional advice.

6

What happens if income falls?

Reduced spending, use of savings, and a temporary change in roles.

7

How are major decisions made?

Financial dependence should not automatically mean losing a voice.

8

When is the model reviewed?

After a child, relocation, illness, job loss, or on a regular schedule.

How to use these questions

  • Define responsibilities before amounts.
  • Do not confuse support with control.
  • Discuss legal documents with independent attorneys.

Answer separately, then compare.

No account is required. Neither person sees the other’s answers before finishing.
