[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Any chance he has family money?

I married the nice guy with the $80k salary (and excellent benefits) and I had no clue his parents were equipped to pay for our wedding, honeymoon, generous down payment on our first home, etc.

I think he opted for the low paying job knowing his parents would supplement (including gifts like a new car for a milestone birthday and college savings accounts for our kids).

Nonetheless, I’d be lying if I said I wasn’t annoyed that I’m the breadwinner with the stressful job that pays our bills. I wasn’t able to be a SAHM. I’m still slightly annoyed about that.

There is definitely something to be said for men who relish in being the provider. Don’t settle if it feels like you are settling. [/quote]

This might be one of the most obnoxious things I've read on this site, and that's a high bar. You married a nice guy who works, your in-laws paid for your wedding, your honeymoon, your down payment on your home, new cars, and kids' college accounts, and you're annoyed about...anything? It's downright impressive what some folks think they deserve in life.
