Ask a Man: To buy or not to buy?

I’ve been with my guy for a year now and we want to move in together. He thinks we should pool our money and buy a condo together. I’m not sure that’s a good idea right now. Will I risk the relationship if I say no?

Ask a man: How do you feel about a prenup?

My boyrfriend and I are thinking of getting hitched. I run my own business and have managed to build up quite a substantial amount of money. I’ve also inherited a decent sum. My significant other has been very supportive of my work and I imagine that will continue. The problem is his own career prospects are flagging. My family thinks I should ask him to sign a pre-nup. I don’t want to upset him and am worried he’ll interpret it as a bad sign. What do you think I should do?

Both my husband and I work. He does help out around the house but I seem to be the one in charge of all our meals and our fridge is almost always empty. The problem is, when I ask him to run to the store to buy milk, he comes home with *just* milk. What gives?

Ask a man: A mate or a maid?

My boyfriend and I just moved in together and will be married this fall. I want to make sure that we start off our marriage on an equal footing. I already seem to be doing more of the housework than he does. My married friends say that most men “don’t want a mate, they want a maid.” Is that true?

Why don’t men want to get married?

The myth, of course, is that men avoid marriage because of commitment issues. Let me state this clearly for the record: bollocks. Men easily commit – just look at the long suffering male fans of famously bad sports teams like the Chicago Cubs or the LA Clippers.

Do men judge other men’s appearance?

Women take it for granted that they will be judged on their appearance by other women and men. But I look around me and most women I know put themselves together really well. It’s the men that dress and look like shlubs. Do men judge other men on their looks?

Why can’t men make plans?

My husband and I both have demanding workloads. Yet, when it comes to our social life, I’m forced to arrange all our plans. No one even expects him to be able to plan anything. My in-laws even call me at work to see when we can all get together. What gives?
