[quote=Anonymous]Possible entry from the other spouse:
10 years, hetero couple, 2 kids
Multiple no sex periods since 2013, with only sex in the past several years resulting in the 2 kids
Low earning partner doesn't contribute much to the family's financial well being, leaving higher earning partner to carry that stress and responsibility. 
Higher earner has a heavier workload and stress level and relies on lower earning partner to be on first for house responsibilities
Higher earner underwrites the living costs of the entire family and expects lower earning partner to be an actual partner by taking on more household duties if he/she refuses to try and earn more income
Higher earner doesn't have time or energy to devote to household maintenance due to heavier work obligation, and besides, when he/she does, lower earning spouse just complains it wasn't done correctly. 
One partner is trying to get healthy and wishes the other partner wasn't such a pig. 
Both partners are shit at communicating. When one partner is vocal, it's usually just to complain and express dissatisfaction.
One partner doesn't drive because XXXXX and therefore relies on life partner to help. [/quote]
