[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I am getting to near retirement age. My spouse has always been SAHM. The last two years I have been WFH and I say in that time if I go on same floor as wife during day it annoys her. Rarely together. Rarely do anything together 7-6pm everyday.

It seems her routine was I leave for work at 7 get home at 7 last 25 years and me being home in day is annoyance.

She wants me back of office. Now she is telling me I should work till 70.

How do people do retirement? My aunt once said marriage is forever but not for lunch. She also put husband on train. To work and have 12 hours free a day.

My brother is older and just retired his wife just assigns him chores for day then goes out. She was SAHM 30 years and same thing.

How does it work. I honestly hate WFH. Today I told wife I had hour free at lunch. She made me bowl of soup, then gave my 45 minute project. I noticed with my father in law my MIL would give him projects or put him in other room in front of TV then pour him alcohol till he passes out in chair.

Is this why men die young? My sister in law literally would ramp up spending if brother mentioned retirement. [/quote]

Is this about your personal situation or are you just in a negative mindset, hating on random women?

Do you have enough money to retire? Do you have some activity to keep you from going insane? It seems just working from home is wrenching your mental health and marriage, full retirement can push both over the edge. May be your spouse doesn’t want to be around you because you are angry, judgmental and condescending and doesn’t know what to do with your free time.[/quote]
