Relationships take a lot of things to start and maintain. In making decisions that affect the relationship, partners need to involve one another to strengthen their relationship. However, there comes a time when a woman has to make personal decisions without involving her man.
Here are five areas a woman should make decisions without involving her man:
Career choicesPeople choose their careers depending on their strengths and weaknesses. More so, your career choice should be influenced by your interests but not your man’s opinions. Your man should involve himself in your career by supporting and guiding you.
Spending your moneyThere is no good thing like spending your hard earned money. As a family, there is a portion you contribute to the family survival. Once you have contributed your portion, you have the freedom to spend the rest of the money the way you want. However, don’t spend it recklessly as it will haunt you later when you are broke.
PrivacyA relationship is built on honesty and trust. However, this doesn’t mean you share each and everything with your man. There are many things you will want to keep private. No one should force you to tell them not even your man. It should be your personal choice to tell you, man, when you feel it’s okay or the right time.
Using birth control pillsThere are many ways to avoid unplanned pregnancy. The number one way is through using condoms. However, some men don’t want to use condoms but force their women to use pills to avoid a pregnancy. Women have a personal choice to make whether to use pills or not, and this doesn’t have to come from their husbands.
Who your friends areFriends are very good in our lives. Your man cannot decide for you which friends you should keep or break up with. Having friends is a personal choice and should entirely remain with you concerning who should be your friends. However, if you have the bad company of friends, it will be appropriate for your husband to step in and save you from them.
