[quote=Anonymous]I’d say “no problem sign this post nup and I will quit today”. Look- I get it. I could “insist” that my husband change his entire work life so that I could go back to work and not have my life suck (meaning still handle everything in the home plus work)but he would have to quit his very high paying job that he’s invested so much emotional and time labor in. That job has paid the day to day for our family of 5 for 12 years. I’m very pragmatic- me going back to work for 100k or even $150k would mean an overall loss of income for our family. Just like if you’d made plans to be a SAHM and then you had kids and he told you to scurry back to work you’d be upset- he probably DID make career plans based upon you SAH. He sounds like a jerk overall (and a child)- but nobody likes feeling trapped or like the big bait and switch is going on.[/quote]
