[quote=Anonymous]My DH and I are in a similar situation. He complains that we never "talk", but all he wants to talk about is his work situation and his income. When he's not doing that he's complaining about something I did that wasn't good enough. He's right--I don't initiate conversation because it will inevitably turn into him talking about his work and it already dominates our household. Then if I tell him how I feel about it he reminds me that he makes more money than I do so his work should be as important to me as it is to him. He's in sales and I'm a teacher. My income will never match his. It's not like he thought that I had sky high income potential when we got married and I've disappointed him--when we met I was in grad school to become a teacher. He also has the same complex as OP's spouse where the problem lies with everyone else. Everyone else besides him is incompetent and not nearly as talented as he is. Commiseration, OP. Ugh. [/quote]
