Honestly, that is also a consideration for me. I'm not sure I would be happy being a second class citizen. Iba pa rin yung nasa sariling bansa.
It's true. I'm not the competitive type. Of course I will be happy if I get promoted but I'm not really a career oriented person. What's important is I am happy with my job, boss and friends.
My dream is to be with a man like you described - parang si crush hahaha! I know I promised not to talk about him anymore. But I have not met anyone better than him kasi, He is "goals" and being with him makes me a winner in lifeMy happiness would be to make him happy. Make sure that I am everything he wants me to be.
Baka maniwala sayo![]()

Para mo naman sinabi na I'm a complete failure. LOL! Just because I am not career oriented, does not mean that I am a "dreamer"
It just so happened that my happiness is to be a housewifeAlso, I'd like to think that I have some achievements din naman that my man could be proud of.
Be careful what you for. Housewives end up being totally dependent on their husbands. Am sure there are many successful examples of this arrangement, but there are many cautionary tales as well.

kasi in traditional patriarchal societies, the pressure to succeed is on the men
there's almost no pressure on women to "succeed"
their women just have to be well bred well trained to be good wives be very supportive of their husbands
Cathy's upbringing is like that

Yes, I definitely don't want to be 100% financially dependent on my husband.
I'll make sure I still have money of my own. I want to be able to buy gifts for my husband that did not come from his own pocket. LOL! There's also a side of me that wants to keep my career. I just can't imagine being pregnant and going to the office.
And I really want to be hands on in taking care of my family. I could just imagine crush, my brother told me, when I have my SO na, I should make sure that I have the toothpaste in his toothbrush ready when he brushes his teeth, that type of alaga daw. I love doing those things
My family is extremely patriarchal. We look up to the men in our family. But the extreme side is if a man is weak, they get absolutely no respect.
My Lola (Dad's side) and my Mom stresses the importance of being a good wife. They have good marriages naman, so I guess it's true. Number 1 rule - don't be dominant!
Yeah I agree with you
Kawawa naman yung mga boss ko, sa sobrang dami ng ginagawa, nalilito naThey don't even know what output they want anymore. Ako naman nangangapa, I don't want to add to their stress.
People are leaving the company and they are not replacing, so more work for those that are left. They cut our team by half already since 2017. And apparently they are expecting more cuts. But as long as my boss is here, as they say "kapit lang" LOL!
40 ka na cath, [emoji111]🏼️ can you really see yourself doing the same thing until sa retirement mo? Assuming you'll be working until retirement age.
This will be the second half of your career, if not now you'll be stuck diyan na lang.

Kurutin kita e!Pinapatanda mo ko parati.
Happy naman ako sa work. Hindi ako happy sa sweldo but there are a lot of non-monetary benefits that I won't be able to get from other companies. That's the reason why I don't want to leave because I doubt na makakahanap pa ko ng boss na kasing bait ng boss ko who lets me get away with murder
I tried to switch industries in my mid 20s, unfortunately, same industry pa din ako bumagsak. If I wasn't able to switch in my 20s, I doubt that I will be able to do it in my 30s. Also, I'm in a "specialist" role so my expertise is not in demand with other companies, it is specific to where I work.
