[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]For the people ragging on OP for not liking the sedentary lifestyle, I wonder how old you are and how much hands-on elder care you have done on a daily basis.

OP, after watching my mom take care of my dad, I think I can appreciate your frustration. When someone aged quickly by their own hand, it forces someone else to prematurely step up and care for them. And guess what -that makes the caregiver age fast. It’s hard on backs, it’s hard on joints, it’s hard on the mind. Maybe OP doesn’t want to watch her golden years get eaten up by someone who couldn’t bother to take care of themselves (let alone anyone else).[/quote]

It’s not that OP doesn’t like the sedentary lifestyle.  It’s that she seems very narcissistic and doesn’t seem to regard her husband as a complete human being with his own worries and desires.  What’s going on that he is so anxious about his health?  Why is he in so much pain?  What does he want to do with the rest of his life?  What are his plans?

She doesn’t seem to know much about him except that he doesn’t admire her, isn’t inspired by her, and she hates him for it.
