[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Realities of DH:
-  ADD (let me senior dog out to potty, forgot about him, and the dog drowned in the pool)
- on the spectrum 
- career fell off a cliff 8 years ago (fired from job, accepted low paying government drone position and has never left)

It’s been a struggle, but we have two kids and I literally have zero family support so I’m not leaving.  I make significantly more than him, and also work an extra 30 hours per month as an attorney freelancer (on top of my full time job) so we can have a nice life and have a vacation, throw a good bday party for the kids etc.

I left (which I know DCUM likes to destroy people for) because I couldn’t handle it anymore. Severed ADHD, could barely handle his exec job while we were together and I did *everything* else - after we split he lost his job and ADHD’d (procrastinated) his way through all of his severance and had to take a huge pay cut job which I suspect he will never be pro-active enough to leave for a better paying one. So career also fell off of a cliff.

So here I am still doing everything for DC (which is fine because I don’t have an adult child to take care of too) AND I probably have to pay for everything/way more than 50%. College etc. ex-DH has saved a paltry sum thus far.

I wonder every now and again if ex wonders how DC get’s school books, school supplies, lunches funded, uniforms, field trip forms, annual school forms, medication/doctors appointments, etc etc etc. I hope I never get hit by a bus…[/quote]
