[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP, I haven't read through the pages and pages, but I feel your pain.  My DH just quit his job one day to go back to school without consulting me.  He never got a job after graduating and is now a SAHD.  I married and had kids with someone that was a working adult who had his crap together and had goals and even considered whether I should be SAH, which I expressed a clear desire to do and am more capable of doing (not because I'm a woman, just because I'm better at the tasks involved).  I wouldn't have done that with someone who barely keeps up with the household on a good day.  I was mad for years about it but finally have just made my peace.  Harboring the resentment does no one any good - I chose a good guy/poor partner but I'm in it for a long haul so I focus on the good guy part.  To be frank, I doubt your wife will ever understand the pressure she put on you or how much it hurt not to be consulted about a choice that you are negatively impacted by every day.[/quote]

Good for you. I would have divorced your husband.  No doubt.[/quote]
