[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Mine did.

When he was unemployed: "The poor guy! He's trying SO hard, we feel so bad for him!" (no, he wasn't trying, he sat around watching TV and p0rn all day).

When he was underemployed: "He needs you to take better care of him! He needs a woman who will cook and clean! He's starving!" Ma'am I'm already paying 80% of the bills, the least he can do is get his butt off the couch and feed himself.

Bad husbands are often the product of parents who coddled them, made excuses for them, and told them over and over they were special little boys who any girl would be so lucky to have. Never were they taught to work hard, provide, and care for their family. [/quote]
+1   My  brother is underemployed. He went to Cal. He could be making so much more, but he likes to play on his computer all day and not work.  He did the same when he was in college. My parents wanted someone to marry him so that he could be taken care of.   So, now they rely on me more financially than my brother.  It's really my mother that coddled him so much.  She kept lamenting how he didn't have a gf (he got married very very late) and asked if I knew a girl I could introduce him to. Um no way.   My female friends were not into bums  They were all very hard working.[/quote]
