[quote=Anonymous]My 29 year old husband came home from a night of drinking saying many unreasonable things.

He was upset that Roy Moore lost and said there will be a civil war and he will have to go fight the democrats.

He said that the war will divide us since he will have no choice but defend his country against the liberals.

He then said he has been feeling unlike himself all year and that he wants to join the military as an officer. He says it is his calling and that everyone has tried to keep him from enlisting ever since the thought occurred to him 15 years ago.

He was drunk and seemed so earnest that I tried to listen and go through the logic in my brain. I thought we were on the path to house, baby, normal life. I want a normal comfortable life with an emphasis on financial security.

He wants to take a pay cut and start from scratch. I asked him what his end goal was and he said he doesn’t want to do it forever but get out at 35 and I quote, “ become an investment banker.”

He then said he needs my blessing.

I at first said he can do whatever he wants but it’s not really a plan for a stable family life. He’s going to get out at 35 and be an unemployed vet.

I then said he needs to grow up and stop fantasizing about being a hero.

He raises his voice and says other wives would be proud of him for wanting to help people and how he is so alone because I am unsupportive. He said he feels like he’s not getting anything out of his marriage because I never encourage him and I take his balls away.

I said I thought I’d be helping my husband evaluate which house to buy, when to have children or which job offer to take. Not listen to 2 am drunken ramblings about wanting to be a hero.

He got mad and is sleeping on the couch. I’m alone in my room crying my eyes out. I feel so alone. Who is this man?
