Move to a Midwest or Deep South college town.

I knew my DH was raised LMC/MC but he went to good schools and I assumed we'd have a solid UMC life...so far still MC due to smaller incomes and HCOL.

Its really hard on me. I don't know if anyone else can relate.


Why put all the pressure of your pretentious lifestyle on your husband?

How about you get yourself a JOB? There is no more Mommy and Daddy. You are a snob.



She says that she has an income, so I would assume that she has a JOB.

I don’t get the impression that she is putting all of this on her DH. It sounds like the situation makes her sad, and then she feels guilty for feeling sad.


Really? This quote suggests otherwise:

"I want things from my childhood vs what my MC husband offers me."
