[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I always feel sad when I read posts like yours, OP. It's more important for you to be right than it is to live in a happy, healthy marriage. When you get married you merge families. Your DH's parents are part of your family now. Why are you keeping score on who is doing more in your marriage? You are supposed to be a team. I've been married for 30 years. I've watched lots of marriages fail. In every singe case, the wife sounded exactly like you. If you continue this type of thinking, you will end up divorced. Maybe that's ok with you. But I promise you, your DH will not stay married to someone who keeps score, who is on the lookout for any perceived hint of unfair treatment, and who treats his family as less-than. [/quote] And there are many unhappy marriages where the wife takes on almost all the responsibility for the home, child care, managing family relations, etc while working full-time as well. It's ok to set limits.[/quote]
