as a man that should never be the case. the art of being a father, the man of the house, is being a provider, and a leader. you're essentially the protagonist and she's your love and support. it's a very easy dynamic to maintain because women are naturally submissive and they enjoy their position. the only reason a woman undermines a relationship is when she's catered to and simped for. what many men fail to realize is that she's the one who should be simping for you, and not the other way around. you have to be invincible and dependable, and always sure of yourself and your actions. i think that idea's been lost to time because men are a lot more selfish nowadays, they haven't been taught self-sufficiency and self reliance.
