…In fact, he’s told friends that he’s enjoying being retired. Retired? He’s 51! He used his severance pay to take a trip to Europe. Now he spends the day online or in the library doing genealogy research. Yes, he cleans the house and cooks, but I have to do the rest. He says that he feels so much more relaxed and at peace with himself now that he doesn’t have to deal with job stress or have to be nice to people he can’t stand or do repetitive boring work.
Meanwhile, I have to be the one who financially supports the household. I have to be stressed out by work. I have to deal with people who I’d rather avoid. I have to worry about paying the bills on one income. I have to worry that I will get laid-off from my job. Oh, and did I mention that when I went back to school to get my degree, my husband insisted that I still work full-time?

Sounds like he treats you like you’re the man…
How horrible!
