How come breadwinners don't exist anymore for men in the household? It seems that men can't be considered head of the household anymore. Marriages seem to just be co existant. The husband does what he wants and the wife does what she wants. If that is the case marriage should be overrated. It doesn't seem companionship. If someone wants that and with co existant, the person should just continue dating for extended time and not make it legal the relationship. Or again companionship , basically just get a dog then.

My dog loves having long talks. His favorite subject is how cats just don't get dogs, I enjoy our talks very much. The only annoying thing is my wife is always interrupting us to be let outside to do her business

I don't know what you mean by, "the husband does what he wants, the wife does what she wants". People get married for the companionship, usually. So they share activities together. They also each have alone time, usually, which is a healthy thing.
So, what is it exactly that concerns you? Clarification needed.

I don't know what you're talking about. I'm Head of Household, Master of my Domain, and Lord of My Manor.
This is one reason why I would need to be with someone who has some similar common interests. I tried dating someone who was different, and that ended in disaster. He and I could never do anything together because we did not enjoy anything together. In over a year and a half, we only went on one small trip together...everything else I did alone. I might as well have been single the whole time.

Situations like yours are when the "compromise" part of sharing your life with someone is involved on both sides.
Mr. CSD and I do not like all of the same things but we do enjoy being with each other so when it comes to something he does not care for much or I do not care for much we go together anyway just to spend time together and share things with each other.
Mr. CSD loves watching the television and I haven't watched the television in more than 15 years I will however take a book, cross stitch, sewing, quilting or my laptop in the living room and sit with him just so we can be in the same room and spend our time together.

If that is your view of a marriage that you can't dominate, control and abuse (at least emotionally) a woman.....you are better off with a dog. At least the ASPA will step in if it gets too bad.

"I tried dating someone who was different,
True, for me it doesn't take nearly that long to find out if we are compatible. Maybe a month. I am usually amazed at what people I have dated are willing to put up with. Last one was not compatible for multiple stand points and she wondered why I was leaving her
Are we talking tax codes here? Because Head of Household is actually an unmarried taxpayer who is supporting a household.
