I’ll try and keep this short

My girlfriend and I recently discussed dynamics and responsibilities in a relationship

She stated she believes a woman should be taken care of. That it is a man’s responsibility to do so. She follows older dynamics however she still believes modern woman are equal to men and can do everything we can.

I told her that I see no problem in her opinion and that’s is justifiably right as long as needs and wants are expressed and met by both sides. I told her that I personally believe if both parties are working equally and if household representatives are equal than it should be a joint effort. I explained that if a mom decides to stay at home and the relationship allows it than of course the other should pick up financial responsibility while the stay at home picks up home care. I also got into sharing money dynamics and that in cases where mom does not work we both establish the cost of our needs and after bills allow an allowance for both of us. Either spend it or put it away for a rainy day. This is my ideal method. Communicate and share accordingly to needs.

She says our views are very different and agrees to disagree. This is no problem as I honestly just saw it has our ideal we’re not incompatible.

So far the dynamic has been good. There is some communication skill that could use work as expressing feeling, wants, and needs are very vague. Other than that no complaints.

Recently we had a discussion and she brought up that our differences in the above may be a reason to break up in the future.

I don’t know how I feel about this. Mostly that our dynamic has been good and when I asked she said it was good as well.

I don’t know if this is a red flag for an escape routines in the future, a lack of immaturity, or maybe it’s me. Maybe I’m overthinking or making something out of nothing and it’s maturity on my end. Based on this last part what would be your opinion?
