Disclaimer: if you're an adult man, you should have your shit together before getting into serious relationships.
A family friend of ours married a French revert bum in the late 90s, but she encouraged him to get back into education.
He literally started from scratch, did his A levels and then studied chemical engineering while working as a pizza delivery man at night to support his family.
He'd tutor me and his kids after work. He went to a gulf country to make tax-free shekels and brought multiple houses in 08-09. It was all thanks to his wife's support and encouragement.
Same thing happened with a mate who met his fiance working at a warehouse. She was studious herself and made him sit and study with her for hours. He graduated with a 1st in Mech eng.
Also a similar story with a maternal aunt of mine.
I always assumed "behind every great man, there's a great woman" was a feel-good bullshit women said to make themselves seem important, but it's actually real wallahi. Anyone else seen this first hand?
