[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Is considering taking a job that is remote. I know that sounds ideal, and so much of it is, but there are a few flaws -
1. He is an extreme extrovert. On the few days that he works from home, he’s itching to get out of the house and do something by the end of the day. I’m afraid he will drive me crazy because I’m more of an introvert and I’m happier to be home.
2. I really don’t need him micromanaging my life or judging me. I work part-time, volunteer at my kids school, coach varsity sport, but take my downtime during the day bc that is when I get it. From 3-10 I’m busting my tale. I’m not sure he fully comprehends this and if I want a nap at 1:00, then I deserve one! When he is done with his workday, he gets his downtime.

Any ideas on this? How to keep our marriage, healthy and intact.? Are there places that he could go to work during the day that don’t cost much money? Any advice would be helpful.. [/quote]

Why would your husband work elsewhere? The idea of your DH working from the library or a coffee shop so you don’t feel judged napping at 1 pm is irrational. Does he think you work full time or are more productive? Just align with him on things if you are afraid of judgement; don’t try to kick him out of the house so you can maintain some facade of business.

I WFH and on the days my husband is also WFH we both do our own thing. He’s not mad I went for a run and I’m not mad he bought a coffee.

If your spouse going to WFH puts stress on your marriage it probably needs some TLC. [/quote]
