So your DH isn't fully comfortable with himself. What can you do as his partner to support him and help him mature or fund a goal, mission, or purpose to his life? It sounds as if he needs to feel fully accepted for who he is, and you do not fully accept him for who he is.

Try loving him before trying to fix him.

Well, she is apparently trying to help him fit in with his finances, and he refuses. That's what this is about. He **likes** being Peter Pan with his friends.

However, taken on its own, it sounds like he was trying to share his feelings with you, and you didn't show any empathy or interest, you took it as an opportunity to criticize him.

I'm guessing you guys may have some bigger issues to work out besides this single conversation and might benefit from therapy if you have trouble talking it through yourselves.

Good luck.
