[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here. The issue at the heart of this is that when I was younger I was very lucky and made alot of money. Not 8 digits but netted mid 7 digits. We both come from what you could call nothing. As the DW, she benefited from early wealth, stayed home, no pressure to work, nice SUV, nice home. Well, went out on my own and got my ass kicked by financial crisis. She had to go back to work in her mid-late 40's to help us survive. She is pissed. I am slowly growing a business, and to build anything is hard. I am not yet 50, I can see how I will hit my business will hit its stride in my fifties and will grow to mid 7 digits with 15-20% margins. So, when most guys I know are worried about getting laid off, I will have built a nice business. Problem is she has no faith in me. She see's challenges that we experienced during financial crisis and takes me as a failure. I'm like hey shoe me anyone else that we grew up with that has had my success, and that I will be successful again. [b]But, she has no risk tolerance, liked the fact that she stayed home, heck even before we had kids in her mid 30's she stayed home. Sounds sexist, but I think she got spoiled[/b]. Life has its ups and downs. So, that's definitely part of it. But, for better or worse. I think it is harder on women in affluent communities - the women are harder on each other and more competitive. Sure, there are things that my kids have had to go without, but perhaps that will give them drive to compete in the world. I know it gave me drive. [/quote] You made your bed. You pick this type of woman and now you are stuck with the REAL person you married, which is a shallow, selfish, freeloading bitch. She is completely ungrateful for the life she had and does not realize that life is full of peaks and valleys. God damn, I cook for my family and call it sexist, but I treat my DH like a king, no way in HELL would I tell him to eat something else or get off the sofa. There have been times that I've poorly planned dinner and I ended up making an excuse for not eating so my family could eat and for that my DH only needs to bring home six figures and I meet him with another six. I bet if she were not a washed up middle aged woman, she would dump your ass for a bigger payday. For all the money you figured out how to make, you did not seem to have a dime of common sense when it came to picking a mate.[/quote]
