Wow. I think you're the loser, PP. Whose DH "doesn't care" if you work or not?[/quote]

mine- i had a soul destroying and terrible last year of college (father killed) and had to finish a degree i was thinking of changing b/c i hated it, then worked in that field until i got married and we ended up moving b/c of his law school- i kept on looking for work but very halfheartedly since i hated my field & frankly wasn't very good. After like 3 months- he offered to let me stay home or take classes or whatever and he was happy to do it. Having that year to just live esp since he was in school was amazing.  We actually lived quite well off of his summer work. I am happy to cope with his insane hours and stuff now b/c i know what he sacrificed for my sanity back then.  you guys are weird- this isn't peasant life in the 19th century where marriage is based off of economic concerns. And even then that was pretty outmoded- i bet most of us are from middle class backgrounds- our grandmothers probably didn't do much other than oversee the household, write menus etc. .which was work from what i can tell but still quite luxurious. i think my mom & grandma are awesome people and their husbands certainly didn't complain that they should go work unless they wanted to- what the hell has changed?  And they both had amazing relationships, in fact my FIL is always griping that MIL work and contribute and their marriage is rather sad. I feel bad for her b/c he isn't very respectful or kind and does barely any housework even though they both work the same hours.  [/quote]

Ok, your family knows how to do it right, but your in-laws are dysfunctional.

How original. [/quote]
