who just wants a dude that can hold the fort, cooks and cleans while you go home to a nice meal , hand over your paycheck and let him do all the budgeting? what a blissful dream. he can pursue any hobby, art, semi-career he wants so long as the dishwashing soap and toilet paper are well-stocked. you don't even have to think about anything except for work.

what placements would thrive together in this arrangement?

Many Water sign man are willing to do that, but most of them are more comfortoble doing it for desperate Fire sign women who have staps-on collection on their closet.

These bums might actually be happy that their hard-working Fire sign woman staying away from home as long as possible, like maybe taking a work-trip to Somalia.

But, i don't know if a Starving-Artist type can bear the heartache of being apart with a Virgo/Piscean combos. I mean, the only reason they're with you in the first place is prob because they see you as their muse 🙂

Just my 2cent


Who says anything about going far away? You can always come home to this peace. I only live the work-gym-home life style anyway.

I've managed to convince the Capricorn that I can take care of him so he doesn't need to work which was a blissful dream for months. But he likes to make things difficult and is now working 3 cities away. Now I'm trying to get him back home 🏡 when he's barely been there a month lol. Stubborn.

Why can't this guy just play mobile games all day like always? Twas perfect the way it was. 😢

Let's construct your dream man.

Sun: Virgo

Moon; most likely capricorn

Venus; virgo

Mercury; capricorn/ virgo.

Sun&moon can be switched.

Or just all personal planets in virgo, should do the trick.

Not sure if this kinda man exists.

Maybe throw in some lowkey pieces placements here n there.

This man 100% does not exist - however we're building a dream man, so whatever

he's cap sun/pisces moon/aqua Venus/sag mars.

He's perfect if only he doesn't get so restless from idleness.

but I've seen potential in him for lying in bed while playing mobile games all day and also he's got a farm and family plantation (very attached to his family) so I can kinda glimpse a future where we're always staying home (this is extremely important to me).

so weird that I feel like we have a better relationship when he's being lazy. No fights, just peace.

May I ask why the idea of him ranging from the home for work causes you discomfort?

he gets paranoid (even tho I have more reason to be given previous events we pretend never happened) and we always end up fighting even more when we're not together. I even left my phone to him for months whenever I'm at work so he can see all my Skype workplace interactions. He's just home chilling and running surveillance on me while I have access to his messenger so it's fair. I know this must be a phase in our relationship but this is disrupting the peace coz I'm getting paranoid texts from him and he's been there barely a month. Twas fine the way it was 😭😭

I feel like a Virgo Venus or Virgo mars would be a good placement for this because we like to express our love through our deeds and actions. A cancer moon would also help because cancer moon is naturally nurturing and likes to take care of others.

🤔 I think you’re on to something…and definitely with a ♋️ 🌙 . My mom has that placement and she makes me feel like a child, always trying to do everything for me 😩.

My Virgo and I tried out a few scenarios at the beginning. This was one of them. But, the babies cried for me. And, he did the budget on Waffle House napkins. He didn't understand the Time Value of Money; it's not just about the amount.

While some women claim to desire this, the fact is nearly all of them have been conditioned to believe that men should be the sole or joint breadwinner. As a result, it's only a matter of time before these same very women view their partners as anything but 'real men'. Cue inevitable resentment and a diminishing degree of respect.


But when you think about it, this guy does more than I do plus cooks better than me. It just all boils down to who keeps better house. Also, my feelings of resentment comes from his lack of time outside of work moreso than other things. We've lived like this for months and it was bliss.

He doesn't even really like his job. And he's been so much more relaxed just staying at home. So I don't really see this as him being an errands boy. Wouldn't he have so much more free time this way too?

I definitely think it’s all about perspective. The time for gender roles is gone really. Now, you pull your own weight as a human. Shouldn’t that be the very basic understanding?

Partnerships are rarely 50/50—usually it fluctuates so you have to be willing to be flexible and understanding.

I only lose respect when a capable person doesn’t take care of themself. I can take care of myself, so if you can at the very least take care of yourself, we will be fine. Maybe that’s crazy idk….

There were months that I felt were far too long that we didn't get to see each other. And his type of work tends to take him to different locations while mine is much more set in one place. I feel like I just wanna spend as much time with him as I can. Maybe he can work for a while when I'm pregnant but I'd rather this arrangement.

Would you like to come home and there is a warm bath waiting for you with rose petals scattered around and the sweet subtle smell of lavender oil? Then you dry yourself and put on the soft robe your man has kindly left for you before you walk through to the dining room where dinner is laid out on the table?


Well, now if it were he that was laid out across the table 😍

And I want him to get used to the idea that it's best that he spends time with me and (in the future) our children. Plus he handles kids better coz I'm terrible since I tend to spoil them and not discipline them. Also, maybe I'm clingy.

I think it’s extremely important to develop a healthy balance between work and family life. You neglect either and you pay for it. Most importantly with families, you don’t get that time back. So it’s important to make the very best of it while it lasts. Childhood is very fleeting and massively important to the develop of healthy adults. You definitely need to have these types of talks to make sure you’re on the same page.

There is such thing - as a general model - for what's deemed as a "normal relationship". A model that's accepted by most people - in modern societies, and thus... different type of relationship (or why not "unusual" - the type that differ from the norm) - seem to get all kinds of reactions from most of this people (somehow triggering - simply because it differs from what they deem as normal... as can be seen among some of this comments - where OP's idea of an ideal relationship - seems to be take more as a joke, as if she's not serious and such). And yes, the norm in every modern society is define by the majority (while old school type of societies - that are based on the monarchy - still have their monarchs to say what goes and doesn't). BUT, even if not most... there's still enough people that are different - in ways that imply a different way of doing things - for them to feel at home (like the rest - if you will). If it's a private thing - something that affects only this specific people in particular - should be a win win situation (live and let live - cause they're not bothering anyone).

It's not like - this surprise transgender thingy - where a male bodybuilder - decides to identify as a female - after 30 years as a male... and still... gets accepted in the Olympics as a female.... Thus, people like him - end-up affecting the society as a whole - ruining sport for whom. Same goes with - the gender BS - where now we have a British - who identifies as a nonbinary Korean... Welcome to 2021.

Personally, i find OP's idea (even id not entirely serious - maybe she just wants more time be his side) - quite reasonable. Normally (so called) - taking care of the bills, cleaning the house and cooking - is managed by both parties (depending on what they decide - what's each party's forte). Yet, it does sound reasonable - for a man to take role of an old school housewife (househusband - if you will) - if that's what work best for those given parties. You know... modern times - gender equality and all of that. This is actually a legitimate idea - in the true feminist sense (as was originally intended). Far from the modem feminist BS - where a lost of the women who adopt this title - have their own personal agenda - that's usually aimed at gaining more privileges.

PS. Lucky guy. 😏

Believe it or not women don't find men doing the housework attractive, tho they state that they'd appreciate it if their partners did the house chores often.

Women are more attracted to successful men, OP might want a man in an apron but that def won't make her wet at night.

There were times when we were apart for like half a year and lately we've been living together for a few months. It's barely a month now since we've been apart again. And in those months, we've had this arrangement and it was ideal imo.

Now I feel like I'm negotiating for him to be home by the first week of August. I am so close to winning this negotiation but this dude is emotionally-manipulative and isn't above punishing me in petty forms like this.

It sounds toxic with the punishment and the manipulation, and if you feel like you're negotiating maybe it's time for you to re-acess everything? You won't keep a man if you turn him into a housewife, maybe you're too focused on him you gotta let him do his thing? he's a cap after all, change your energy about the whole thing, and focus on yourself instead.

I don't really know about the dynamics between earth signs.

nah, it's fine. i won anyway so he's coming home in 2 weeks.

from what I've noticed, we tend to power struggle and I'm okay with that but he does it over the smallest things that i feel any other couple would automatically agree on,

And I want him to get used to the idea that it's best that he spends time with me and (in the future) our children. Plus he handles kids better coz I'm terrible since I tend to spoil them and not discipline them. Also, maybe I'm clingy.

Is your father willing to pay him an allowance as well?

While some women claim to desire this, the fact is nearly all of them have been conditioned to believe that men should be the sole or joint breadwinner. As a result, it's only a matter of time before these same very women view their partners as anything but 'real men'. Cue inevitable resentment and a diminishing degree of respect.

But when you think about it, this guy does more than I do plus cooks better than me. It just all boils down to who keeps better house. Also, my feelings of resentment comes from his lack of time outside of work moreso than other things. We've lived like this for months and it was bliss.
