[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We dated for a year before getting engaged and then another 1.5 years before getting married. The big surprise was DH was upfront that he had career goals that would require the wife to put their own career on hold and probably quit, and that was OK to me at the time as I certainly had no plans to be director one day... but it ended up not going so well. Turns out, I got so bored and hated being trapped with screaming kids for 12 hours every single day. Covid lockdowns were the final straw. I felt DH sort of lost respect for me at the time as well; he always seemed annoyed and short with me. I ultimately worked very hard to get back into the workplace part time and now there is more balance. He seems to appreciate not having to be the sole provider and I appreciate not being the sole caregiver. Everyone seems a lot happier at the end of the day.[/quote] Your kids scream 12 hours a day?! Smh…[/quote]
