[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Wow -- OP -- I feel really sad for you and for your husband.  Dang.  I thought you were going to say he hasn't had a job in the last 10 years... but no... he HAS A JOB, but you don't think it's good enough????

That is really all on you.  I mean this in a serious way -- but why are you so special that you feel entitled to live off of husband's earnings?  I'm a SAHM and DH is a gov. employee  (and military vet -- so that helps), but why are you resentful that your husband's earnings are not sufficient to support you?  As a SAHM, I don't come to this with the expectation that my husband is supposed to work so that I can stay home.  We do it b/c it worked out for our family to have less stress and keep the wheels turning (so to speak).

Were you part of the decision of where your husband went to school or did you come along after that decision was made?

I really think you need to work through this sense of expectation and disappointment.  The problem and the solution lie within you -- your husband has nothing to feel bad about.[/quote]
reread what op said. she said "we paid ..his school.."[/quote]
