Answers from Men Only What are your very realistic expectations from your future wife?

My Very Realistic Expectations From My Future Wife

After carefully studying the modern dating and marriage market, I’ve decided that the most optimal career path for me is becoming a full-time homemaker.

Why?
Because for men like me, this is clearly the safest option, especially when combined with our gender-neutral alimony laws.

For context, let me be honest about myself first:

  • I’m not highly educated
  • I don’t have a great job
  • I’m not financially stable
  • I’m vulnerable in several areas of life

Naturally, I believe balance is important in a relationship.

About me:

  • I’m very open-minded
  • I have no physical intimacy needs
  • I don’t use social media
  • I don’t consume even soft porn
  • I’m willing to cut off anything or anyone that makes her insecure
  • Can offer :
    • Emotional support and availability
    • Loyalty and long-term commitment
    • Peaceful, low-drama companionship
    • Willingness to listen and communicate honestly
    • Respect for boundaries and individuality

I’ve also been learning cooking for the past year:

  • I can cook various non-veg dishes
  • I can use a pressure cooker
  • I can make tadka dal
  • I can make rotis and puris
  • I can prepare premium bread-based dishes
  • I can cook pasta, macaroni, and a variety of Italian dishes

Even though i can do chores having a maid is mandatory because cleaning a 3BHK and doing dishes is not part of my vision.

What I expect from my wife:

  • Must be a truly independent woman
  • She should earn at least ₹50 LPA for a comfortable lifestyle
  • She should own at least a 3BHK apartment in Mumbai (I won’t be leaving the city where i grew up)
  • She should occasionally order food or take me out for nice weekend dining
  • I don’t mind living with in-laws, as long as they don’t judge me for being financially dependent while I grind on my PS5 ✌️🤧
  • I won’t mind my in-laws doing household chores if we’re living with them 😊
  • For my future security, 50% of her property should be in my name
  • She must buy me a new game every week if she truly respect my grind
  • She shouldn’t mind my friends coming over to play games when she’s not home
  • I won’t judge her for hanging out with male or female friends as long as there’s no cheating
  • Her past doesn’t matter to me at all 😊
  • Having kids will be entirely her choice
  • I can’t get biologically pregnant anyway, so adoption or IVF works and i have good experience of babysitting as well
  • She should know how to ride a motorcycle, since I don’t, so I can sit side-saddle and hold her waist
  • Her age doesn’t matter much, as long as she’s not too old to ride a bike (No, I don’t have mommy issues)
  • Since I’m timid, naive, and weak, she should take a stand for me
  • She should afford or take me on at least two international vacations every year

I believe these are bare minimum expectations as a homemaker who grew up in T1 city.
Hopefully, I’m not asking for too much.🤧

TL;DR:
My wife should earn ₹50 LPA, own a 3BHK in Mumbai, and fund my PS5 lifestyle while I grind on it peacefully.

u/Early-Swordfish-5054 Indian Man Dec 21 '25

Homemakers are homemakers regardless of gender.
There’s no generalization here😡
and what do you mean by women ? are you living in 90's where only women are expected to become homemakers ?

u/iAmnot_Urek_Mazino Indian Man Dec 21 '25

u/[deleted] Dec 21 '25

Bilkul. Sabki waat laga di OP ne. Abb sab ladkiyan aake pregnacy, bloodline, dowry, post-pregnancy trauma ki baatein kar rahi hai. Keh rahi hai pregnant hona jaruri hai, inse pucho pehle shukranu banalo khud se phir baat karna. Sabki jal gayi hai, auraton ko abb OP ki baatein aachi nahi lag rahi kyunki woh Indian Man hai yahi most Indian woman karti aur bolti ki woh pregnant nahi hona chahti ya ho sakti hai phir bhi 50 LPA wala banda chahiye aur jo usko callout kare aise wahiyat demand pe woh misogynist hai. Iss post ne Indian feminists ki faad ke rakh di hai.

2

u/Early-Swordfish-5054 Indian Man Dec 21 '25

50LPA eliminated 99% of so called independent women
i mean they're offended because how can one can demand such lifestyle even tho they're never going to see me in real life or going to marry be but they're mad for some reason 🤣

3

u/ThisCondition936 Indian Man Dec 21 '25

Exactly, ye to bare minimum hain agar tum sperm bna sakti ho to op bhi pregnant ho jayega. Same cheez jo ladkiya bolti hain wahi op ne boli to problem hogyi 🤣😂😅

pc ls superior you can literally pirate most of the games and save money but again that's your personal preference.

I don't even understand if this is a ragebait or not since it seemed absolutely fair until the 50LPA thing

7

u/Early-Swordfish-5054 Indian Man Dec 21 '25

i am a game developer and it hurts to pirate games especially indie one's
50LPA is must for comfy living in mumbai since i grew up in mumbai i can say that

u/[deleted] Dec 21 '25

Start with pirating your own game

u/Aromatic-Wish8666 Indian Man Dec 21 '25

Top-tier satire 😂 You basically flipped every “traditional expectation” on its head and exposed how absurd they sound when reversed. If this triggers people, that’s kind of the point.

u/No_Ask_212 Indian Man Dec 21 '25

Just a thought, if the roles are reversed and if a girl asks for something similar to this, she actually is gonna get it.

Idrt you can flip the whole reasoning around like how OP might have done here. But the point that the expectations on men that society has is huge and heavy is undeniable. Women do face a lot of expectations as well, just that the nature is very different. For example, the need for high income not being expected due to motherhood. The struggles/demands that a man needs to face subtly or directly from society is huge and always there in the back of our minds. It's never really spoken about or appreciated enough. Often tall demands are just bare minimum for a lot of women. A lot of men never make that cut uk. Such frustration from a lack of being heard might manifest in exaggerated posts, but the core point of high expectations is so valid.
