This is a great article. Another consideration: what are the unique demands and challenges for one’s calling as a man, and is she built to handle those? A wife of a pastor needs to be community-oriented, ideally not majorly introverted. A wife of a missionary needs to travel well and adapt well. A wife of a successful businessman needs to sometimes handle long hours on her own. The best couples I see have the woman matched to the right role. The wrong woman for the wrong role? Painful and even disastrous.
