[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I am married to an adorable man who is sweet, kind and gentle. Despite his smarts, he isn't very financially motivated and chooses to pursue work that is "fun" and "interesting". I love him a lot, but resent that marrying him means we won't have the life I envisioned; nice house; private school for the children; being a stay at home mother, etc.

Am I wrong to feel this way?Does anyone else secretly wish this too? Did you consider your husband's financial prospects before saying " I do"?[/quote]

So, the man was the plan and you chose wrong?[/quote]

Yeah, I guess the man was plan A...now I need a plan B. I'm not averse to earning my own money, it'll just be hard once the kids come around. I really wanted to give them a 100% of my focus.[/quote]

I think you should think long and hard now about whether you can be at peace with your husband's income, or whether you need to leave the marriage.

If you are constantly resentful over not being a SAHM, it will poison your marriage.  Better to get out and move on before there are children involved.[/quote]
