Another question for the homemakers...

those of you out there that do not have children or were already homemakers before you had children...
did you know you wanted to be a homemaker before you met your husband? I know that is what I want, but I am unsure of how to find a man who wants the same... I know it is extremely rare these days. Is it just some chance meeting or is there an online website that is mostly men and women looking for such an arrangement?

It saddens me when I see posts like the one by electragold, that consider the desire to be a homemaker to equate to giving up on life. Fact of the matter is, someone HAS to do it, or you'll end up living in trash, so if you actually WANT to do it, it'll probably make life a lot easier for you.

The recommendations for Eharmony or looking for love in a church setting are probably the best options. My experience with dating sites is you're probably better off going onto a general dating site rather than a highly selective one, but that's just me, and other people might have other experiences. I don't know of any "mail order bride" sites, but that would be my best guess at a specialised site for what you're looking for. But as I said, a general dating site may be better for you.

I knew I wanted to be a homemaker when I had my son at 20. You can date men and figure out (as you get to know them) what they prefer in a wife. I am sure on the dating site EHarmony.com there are questions that refer to whether or not you want a homemaker in a mate etc.

As a male I have found one of the best places to find a potential mate, especially what you're looking for, is in church. It's amazing how many "church-going" men want a "stay-at-home" wife. Good Luck.

So why do you want a man who basically wants a chattel instead of a partner?

I mean, do you not think you can support yourself in the world like a normal human being or what?

I am really not trying to be mean--I was just struck by your statement and by the fact that someone as young as you are seems to be giving up on life like this. :/
