[quote=Anonymous]Are you telling me men want to work? I could have sworn DH told me if we won that billion mega millions he was going to retire that day, or two weeks notice but take vacation time. With his profession he can retire by 50. Nobody really wants to work, but we all somehow work, SAHMs too, and it sounds like your wife is getting older and is ready to retire. I wouldn't assume she wants to be a SAHM(your kids are in college so she can't be sahm anymore anyway.... have sleepless nights, etc...I don't think this is a gender difference, why work if you can do without? Sounds like she is still working. There is an issue men have, and that is that they assume women want them to fix things, and most comments are interpreted as some criticism of them. You are posting about this because you have been conditioned since childhood to think you are a failure if you don't provide the best for your family and wife. It is a common thread in patriarchal societies. Meaning, your own mind set is influencing your perception of her needs and wants.[/quote]
