Didn't want to comment on this but I guess it triggered me. When I met my husband, I was 25, he was 27. We got married 6 months later. I was already consulting in IT, he was in his final year of college. It'll be 8 years this Saturday. We file our taxes jointly. The first couple of years, I had more income than he did. The following years, our joint income doubled with him making more than me. We've been "doubling our incomes " yearly in a friendly competition to push each other. When he makes more than me in investments, I set up couple of businesses to boost myself. It's all still a joint income and the plan is to keep setting goals together and smashing them. We don't use "I grew", "myself" when it comes to our growth. I don't know why this person felt this way in her marriage but this is not the standard.
