[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don't have any local friends (again, trailing spouse who works at home).

It's not a cost of doing business for him. People DO brown bag. He just goes around the office and finds the ones who haven't that day or decide going out is a better option than what he brought. I know because I've run into some of them at events (military) and they joke about it.[/quote]

So...make some friends? What is this -- you're first day at kindergarten and you don't know how to make friends??

In any case, this sounds like a money issue, in that he's spending money and you're not, and you resent that. Just start buying your own lunches. Buy dinner as well. Tell him to make lunch/dinner if he wants to start saving money.[/quote]

Why do you describe yourself as a "trailing spouse"? You don't have to trail if you don't want to? Next time he has to move, you can just stay where you are, especially if you work from home anyway. Get your own identity that doesn't depend on him.[/quote]
