[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Listening to someone complain about something they can't or won't change is exhausting. It's a romance killer, too. When my partner let his professional misery drag on too long, without taking any action to improve the situation, I felt myself starting to think of him as weak and helpless, just another dependent I had to manage.

Either stop complaining to him, or make a change. Ideally both. He can't make the change for you. You have to take some responsibility for your own life, without dumping on him every day.

I'm sympathetic. I've been there. But when I realized I was spending our time together every. single. day. moaning about it, I gave myself a mental shake and started applying. It's no way to live.

Could you check out mentally and coast til the baby's born? [/quote]

Also OP he isn’t pressuring you to quit.  He’s (in his mind) encouraging you to do the thing that your constant complaining surely makes it seem like you want to do.  Framing it as him “pressuring” you is completely unfair and not representative of the actual dynamic.[/quote]
