[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You sound like my wife.  Maybe do some self reflection and ask yourself why you are torturing and not only making your life miserable but his. He is trying to guide you toward sanity.  This is about you not working, it’s about you voluntarily harming yourself and your marriage. Would you sit idly by and watch your husband harm himself? Maybe he loves you a cares about you.  He may not be saying that but I can almost guarantee you that is where he is coming from.

FYI nothing is going to change or get better about the job.  Stop expecting pushing on expecting it to get better.[/quote]
I agree with this. He's trying to be supportive and you need to consider that he is. I think you need to think about how much you complain about it. He hears you sounding upset enough that you should quit and he's okay with it. If that's not what you want,  he may not be the person to complain to because it bothers him and he wants to solve the problem. It's possible that he's overreacting but maybe you shouldn't bring this to him; he may not be able to handle it and some people can't. Talk to someone else.

I had a friend who complained constantly about a job she had. It got to be too much for me. She told me her husband told her he didn't want to hear about it anymore and I understood why. In her case, I thought a lot of her complaints were petty but some were not. I told her my opinion but i felt like she was not going to hear it. The job was stressful and not a good fit for her. She did end up.quitting.

I went through this and quit my job for a few years. It was a good re-set for me. My husband suggested it. I was miserable and I think too miserable to see things clearly.
