I’m an unashamed stay-at-home girlfriend: Here are my rules

Must be nice.

A Michigan woman is laying down the law with a stern set of rules that her man abides by: She never pays for meals, pulls her own chair or pours her own wine.

And, of course, she doesn’t have a job and sure as heck doesn’t want one, either.

Leaha Ureel, a 22-year-old from Sterling Heights wears the stay-at-home girlfriend-turned-wife crown with excessive pride.

Ureel told SWNS that she used to duck any fellas who didn’t dress sharp enough in her single days and broke up with her boyfriend, Alan, upon the epiphany to live being waited on hand and foot.

“I wanted time for myself and to have someone to provide for me,” Ureel said. “Alan wasn’t able to provide for me at that point so we broke up.”

After a few months, her boo Alan, a 23-year-old contractor, got the message and proposed to Leaha — once he “stepped up to her standards.”

Alan met the criteria after setting up a home renovation business in the interest of supporting his princess. He even carves out time from work to get coffee with Leaha now that he cuffed her and she collared him.

“He stepped up — now he arranges and takes me for dates at least twice a week. I like him to take initiative and book a restaurant for a meal or choose what we are doing,” she said.

Meanwhile Leaha, who completed college and used to wait tables, gets to spend her days like it’s the 1950s all over again.

“Now I go for walks with the dogs and spends lots of my time cooking,” she said. “I love being a housewife and I want others to know that it is OK to aspire to have this lifestyle.

Leaha also took the time to pass along some red flags to spot in providers for anyone else who wants to live her lifestyle.

If they’re commenting on prices — which people like Leaha, of course, wouldn’t dare to pay — not tipping at restaurants, making comments about underdressing, or rescheduling things last minute, then it’s time to find some new sugar, she says.

“I’m not ashamed to be a stay-at-home wife…I don’t think there should be shame over wanting to be a stay-at-home girlfriend or wife,” she said. “It’s your life so you choose how you would like to live it.”
