[quote=Anonymous][quote]I’m married to a surgeon, and I don’t feel this way.
I know this sounds stupid, but I don’t really know how to spend the money. I know that he envisions this perfect house and clothes and parties, but I’m a nerdy sci-fi lover, and I don’t know how to make those things happen. I’m also a physician, and I’m not really interested in dedicating my life to shopping and interior decorating.
We have had to move far away from home in order to pursue his career, so I have no friends or family around. It also means that the people we invite to said parties are near strangers and kind of judgmental.
And it’s hard to share parenting derisions with someone who doesn’t really know your kids but doesn’t want to admit it.

I love my husband. He is brilliant and funny and overall a wonderful man. But I sometimes wish I had married someone else. Maybe OP and I should switch places[/quote]

[quote]This is so condescending and faux self deprecating. SAHMs don’t spend all their time “shopping and interior decorating”[/quote]

DP - Yes, but in response to your post SAHMs do not spend their time in the OR or helping patients, like the PP and her husband. So do not be condescending yourself.
