[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I have this with wife but is other way around. In our case it’s due to imbalance of workload. I am the breadwinner but work crazy hours/ high stress and have begged her since youngest was in school full time to get job also so we can share the load and she won’t/ says she’s ’trying’ but clearly isn’t (her job skills super applicable to today and has lots of friends still in field so I don’t think should be totally impossible). After a while I just started feeling this overwhelming resentment and just anger and lost interest in sex bc it felt like having sex with someone who didn’t care about me. So I guess my q is whether there is imbalance and resentment bc that can affect sex life [/quote]

OP here.  Maybe?  We both work full time and he is technically the breadwinner by dollar amount but I still make mid-6 figures so we both have demanding and stressful jobs.  I’m sure there is something subconscious resentment that as a man making $1m+ he’s still juggling school drop offs and doctor appointments with his wife.  The funny thing is I’ve told him I’d gladly quit and pick up all the household/kid stuff but he also doesn’t want the stress of being the sole provider.  (I realize people are going to say don’t quit b/c I’m on the path to divorce but maybe it would help.  I don’t know.)[/quote]

At that income range neither one of you should be juggling school drop offs and flu shots.

Why don’t you have a full time nanny? [/quote]
