[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I have this with wife but is other way around. In our case it’s due to imbalance of workload. I am the breadwinner but work crazy hours/ high stress and have begged her since youngest was in school full time to get job also so we can share the load and she won’t/ says she’s ’trying’ but clearly isn’t (her job skills super applicable to today and has lots of friends still in field so I don’t think should be totally impossible). After a while I just started feeling this overwhelming resentment and just anger and lost interest in sex bc it felt like having sex with someone who didn’t care about me. So I guess my q is whether there is imbalance and resentment bc that can affect sex life [/quote]

OP here.  Maybe?  We both work full time and he is technically the breadwinner by dollar amount but I still make mid-6 figures so we both have demanding and stressful jobs.  I’m sure there is something subconscious resentment that as a man making $1m+ he’s still juggling school drop offs and doctor appointments with his wife.  The funny thing is I’ve told him I’d gladly quit and pick up all the household/kid stuff but he also doesn’t want the stress of being the sole provider.  (I realize people are going to say don’t quit b/c I’m on the path to divorce but maybe it would help.  I don’t know.)[/quote]

No I think this is great and you should not quit. 
If you make kid six figures and still work it’s doubtful that he is resentful about that. It must be something else. [/quote]
