We've been together 10yrs, married 6, dd5 & ds months
. He has never had a proper job. Instead works only when one particular contractor - who is also his mate - gives him work. Sometimes he goes months without earning a penny but has never once gone out to look for work himself.
I earn a fairly well and have been lucky enough to have my parents look after my DD which meant I could work f/t and pay for everything.
Lately and as a result of some not so great news regarding my mums health I have been unable to accept the situation and have found myself increasingly feeling repulsed by what I now feel is his inability to be a real man, step up to the plate and look after his family. He became quite angry last when I again turned down his advances and accused me of using sex as a weapon. I was honest and explained that I felt like the man in the relationship and therefore felt turned off at the idea of having sex with him.
Today I am hit with the realisation that this probably means our relationship is beyond saving.
