DP has been unhappy in current job for a while (and to be honest has never been happy in any job for 17 years of relationship) and had an interview this week for a new job which he has now accepted.
But with no discussion with me and it's a massive pay cut and we are already struggling.
I manage the household finances and have to keep a rein on things as he is irresponsible with money and spends with no clue as to consequences/ bills to be paid etc.
This new job will put us in an even trickier position and yet he has given zero thought to the impact it will have on the family.
I feel under massive pressure to just accept the decision (I work 4 days a week but also do all the childcare/ housework etc) because he says that the other job is making him very stressed and yet he has given no thought to the stress an income cut will put on our family.
Aibu to be pissed off at the lack of thought/ discussion about this? He is making me feel as though Iabu for not just accepting it but I feel as though I have to pick up the pieces all the time
