[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Honestly, this is the saddest thread I have ever read.  Decide what income/prestige/whatever you want and then go after it.  Support your DH is discovering his goals.  Decide together which of these aspirations have to take a back seat because of family priorities.  Think of your husband as your partner not your cash cow.  This isn't rocket science.

Surely most women follow this model.  If you think it's ok to think less of your husband (who is great with the kids, a decent provider and a good partner), because he isnt the guy who puts all his effort into just making more money, divorce him and give him up to someone who will appreciate him.

Let me guess.  Your husband makes a lot of money. [/quote]

+1.

I hate it when people do this.[/quote]

Say all you want about being a decent provider, etc but when you are the one who is bringing in 70% of the money and also the one doing the lion's share of house work, you would be singing a different tune.[/quote]

Yup. I make around 250k/yr and does DH. I'd be pissed if he was making significantly less (meaning under 150k ). However, he has enough pride to keep up on his own. As long as he's able bodied, no way in hell would he lag behind.[/quote]
