Ok so I had a good jobs ( actually more than one ) . Maybe I did too much . I quit my last job because I hated it and then fell pregnant . Never went back full time ( did whatever bits I could ) , as I was ill and some issues , plus Four children in quick succession .
OH climbed the ladder . And doing V well . But always knew he would drop it in a heartbeat to be with the kids more .
Should I ( earning about half what he does In a professional job more than the national average ) Get him to quit or go part time , so I can regain my career footing . I might eventually earn as much as him if I do well .
I’ve done six / 7 days a week and contributed financially , but feeling Pissed off that now OH is doing the same he feels like he’s doing me a favour, certainly acts like it .
I want the bloody control back in my life and I suppose I’m tired of feeling like I’ve relied on him .
Plus I don’t feel like I can tell him what to do with his earnings and recently he bought a car that we could’ve spent less on , we really need to move house and I feel like he’s got his priorities wrong and I can’t stop him .
I’d rather fing go to work and let him sit at home or whatever and do it myself
