[quote=Anonymous]OP. Putting aside the massive amount of noise, you need to come to terms with the decision. You need to forgive and give up the resentment and move forward. Or you will end up like that woman in the ultimatum thread you mentioned. Once people really pushed, she eventually admitted that it was her husband's failure to hold down a job, be responsible as a partner, and care led her to the decision to leave him. You're heading that way unless you can embrace the change and let go of the resentment even though you are completely justified in feeling the way you feel.

You will end up divorced, supporting an ex (although that woman claimed she would fight this tooth and nail she will lose), and eventually end up alone because you are holding on to this resentment. I don't think this is what you want and you need to give this one up and really embrace how lucky you were to hustle into a better paying job, your health, and whatever space for gratitude you can find.

Anything can be a distraction. Even your kids. but. Your kids will get older. They will move on from the crafts and games. I have a strong suspicion that once they do, your DW will deal with the underlying issue that resulted in her decision to leave the workforce.

Good luck, OP.
