Even having an S.O. who is my husband supporting me 100% would make me uncomfortable - for a different reason - I would want to be self-sufficient with my own income should the need arise (e.g. his death or our divorce).

My husband has been the sole financial provider for me for the past 10 years... he even paid my student loans. We have a hefty life insurance policy in case of his death or disability.
In the unlikely case of divorce, alimony and child support would be enough to cover expenses until I found employment. Actually... we've agreed that I won't be employed while our children are still minors... even if it means that he pays more alimony that he would have to. It's just that important to us that I stay home with the children.
Happily, divorce is pretty much unthinkable to us. And we keep upping that life insurance policy.
