Wait... where did it say PI? I missed it..? If so, this poster has lamented on here before about the exact.same.thing.

Why didn't you choose a man whose career and overall demeanor was more impressive to you? Did you not like any of them? Were they not in to you? If you couldn't pull anyone else that may help you see your husband in a different light, he may have been the "best" you could do so you can appreciate him a little more.

Also, as already stated - if certain jobs impress you so much, why don’t you get that job yourself? If you have one of those jobs already, why aren’t you spending your time reaching further instead of blaming your husband for your discontent?

Yeh you sound dumb, executive doesn't mean all those negatives. Get back to the trailer.

I think the person who got the short end of the stick in this marriage is not OP.

Quality men are attracted to women who can construct coherent sentences and spell.

Comprehension problems? I said I would rather. It doesn’t state anywhere that I believe bad habits are tied to job. But, by her account, OP has a great husband, just without the job she would prefer him to have. I’m saying there flip side isn’t always the dream either.

I am.

He now says he wants to be a cop.

OMG you have completely exhausted this topic on DCUM. What responses do you think you will get this time around that you haven't gotten in the past?? Why not divorce this poor man already?

A cop is an h9norable.profession.

What kindnof asses do you hang with that make your husband the butt of jokes?

I think you have a you problem, not a husband problem.

Fix you before you end up with a husbandless problem.

Curious as to what the OP hopes to gain from all of these threads? A therapist could help her with all the ruminating and obsessing she's doing. Hopefully she'll consider it.

Your father raised an insufferable snob.

I don't understand who is making jokes about your husband's career to you. That is SO beyond rude and inappropriate. I just can't imagine polite people doing that. It's like telling someone their baby is ugly. No one does that.

If you really want to discuss this issue and get advice that might help (seeing as how you've posted about this before), you need to give more context because what you describe honestly doesn't make sense to me.

I believe it's mostly in her head. She believes people are laughing at him at dinner parties when they really are just geuninely interested in his stories. Because she doesn't respect him she can't imagine anyone else would either.
