Not impressed with husbands career

[Anonymous]

LOL. I married a man exactly like my father with an impressive career. So basically, everybody ignores me at social gatherings because DH gets all the attention, and the things that drove me nuts about my father continue to drive me nuts about my DH.

Joe Shmoe sounds pretty darn good to me. Wanna trade?

We all have inner expectations of others, no matter how many times we silence them, they pester us again. It's the human condition. Surely, your husband can't be 100% perfect. It sounds like he's A+ as you say, in all other areas, so there must be something to keep you both humble
But also, I think it's pretty attractive when a man doesn't care about what other people think he should do for a career. He does what he enjoys. Sounds like he knows himself and is confident enough to be true to himself. A lot of people can't say that. Try to see it as a admirable quality
Of course, if he's not even happy in the job he may consider something different, but...it would be a discussion and ultimately his choice.

Don't beat yourself up about being judgmental. Though we should strive to improve ourselves where we're weak, we're all human and struggle with sin <3

OP, you are an admitted beaurecrat. You are a loser yourself. I would be ashamed if I worked for the government, doesn't get any more pathetic than that. Most of the country hates your ilk.

I have however remained underwhelmed by his career choice. He is at an easy job that isn’t very highly looked upon. And as such, he’s the butt of everyone’s jokes. He also carries himself in such a way that isn’t very attractive. He’s too...Joe Shmoe

I have a hard time with this as my father is the exact opposite. He has a very well known and respected career and commands a room with his presence.

I keep thinking what’s missing and I guess I thought I’d marry a man like my father. Instead I doengraded, majorl.

I know it’s silly but I can’t shake this feeling if discintent.

Was this an arranged marriage? Did you not know what he did for a living, how he spokes or how he commands a presence or not?

Let me guess -- desperate for marriage and babies and he agreed so you went with it, and now you wish you had held out for a CEO of a regional company type of guy - even though when you were dating that guy wasn't calling?

Marriage sounds awesome, where do I sign up?

Being a PI or cop sounds really interesting. Stop hanging around anyone who disses your husband's job, they are losers.

OK what the hell job does he have then? If he is the "butt of all jokes" then you either need to find new friends or maybe hey STICK UP for your husband?

BTW, do you work?
