[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I cannot stand that I have a high stress job and my DH has a low stress (and low paying) job. Why did I do this to myself? I regret marrying him with every bone in my body. Any man who sits and watches his wife endure stress and pressure and is content to take it easy is no man. This is primal and will never change. [/quote] Reverse the genders in this. Still true?[/quote] I don’t think (straight) men expect to be married to a man with a primal urge to support the family, so…[/quote] I agree with this as a man who is the sole breadwinner. Of course, in most families, the man is the one with the high stress job and [b]of the women I know who work with high stress jobs with SAH dads, it rarely works.[/b] It's not fair, men can be just as good at home, but biology seems to play a role here.[/quote] OP's DH is not a SAH dad. He works. OP's issue is that his job is lower-stress than hers is.[/quote]
