[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm not really sure that you would have to give up your career. I am immunosuppressed and am an elementary school teacher. I do everything I can to prevent getting sick (constant handwashing, not touching doorknobs or students' pencils, clothes come off right when I get home and I get in the shower etc) but if my spouse was the one who was a teacher I wouldn't expect that he give up his career because of me. But I would expect he would do the best he could to avoid bringing germs home. What is your exact situation?[/quote] +1. Both of the scenarios OP presented seem workable to me.[/quote] OP here. They aren't the exact situation, but it's a situation where there's not really a workable solution, at least not one that spouse is willing to try. [/quote] What is your career?? This is not about an immunosuppressed spouse. This is a question about marital compromise. I would not accept dictating the terms of the relationship-ever. [/quote]
