[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here- I get it. I didn't expect to not work, but like I said I had useless degree and the only jobs I could get were for temp admin. assistant work. It's not because I didn't want to work. I felt really bad about myself because I wasn't qualified for better jobs and instead of being encouraged to go back to school, I was made to feel like I was useless. That's why he's jerk. [/quote]

A string of temp jobs can lead to a full-time job--it gives you experience that makes you more qualified.  And why was it on your husband to tell you to get more education or job training?  I mean, yeah for you that you got a degree and a better career, but you could have done that while you were married to him, too.  It sounds like you weren't very motivated while you were married, because you had someone supporting you.  When you had to pay your own bills, you were suddenly motivated.

Some men are really into having a SAH wife, as a status symbol or an indication of their ability to provide.  But a lot of men want a partner who is contributing financially.  They might not care exactly how you do that, but it does matter.  Just as some women really want a rich husband, and others just want someone who's carrying their weight.  [/quote]
