[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I am a SAHM. I was WOHM and hated not being there for my kids. So I quit! I am very happy now and I also have my own money.  I do have it easier than many WOHMs who put in a full day of work at office and come back home and cook and clean.  I also have it easier than those SAHMs that do everything at home (out of love or out of necessity) because they see it as their job description.

I am stay at home mom - not stay at home maid --- so I have maid service. DH likes to cook so I let him. we eat out a lot as well as order in a lot during the week. laundry is collaborative effort. I pick up and drop off my kids, to and from school. I make sure that my kids do their homework and academics, I am there when they are doing their sports and other activities. In short - I am home to take care of the kids needs,  I am not a domestic diva - though I do host a lot.

I own it. I am not as hard working as many women on this forum - and I do not feel bad or apologetic about my lot in life.

I do not worry about DH leaving me because that will never happen.  I do worry about my family's health.  Otherwise I am well taken care of financially.

What about you, OP?

I read your question and felt really sad for you.[/quote]

Why are you so confident your DH won't leave you?[/quote]

I have qualities that he wants in a wife, he had qualities that I want in a husband.  Neither of us settled because of age, lack of education, lack of self confidence, financial reasons, wanting to have children, loneliness - the reasons many people marry.   If you are willing to be single if you do not find the right partner, and if you take your time in your relationship to get married, and if you don't disregard the warning signs, and if your core morals and principles are the same - your chances to find a lifelong partner is very high.

We have survived many ups and downs for nearly 30 years, we are more connected than before, we still find each other very attractive, out home is our sanctuary and not a battle ground, we are a very close knit family, we have amazing kids and we are devoted parents, I am confident that this marriage will endure.

Lack of money, unequal libido, infidelity, inequality has never been an issue with us.[/quote]
