Perna is giving you some good ideas.

I read this last night and couldn't come up with a good response then (don't know if today will be better). My knee jerk reaction is to say eff him and tell you to leave. But that's probably a little bit of an over reaction on my part. I am guessing that you moved into the other apartment? The one with the nice landlord? Is that helping you save any money? And school (uni) starts here in about 4 weeks, is it the same for you? If so, can he just ride this out until you get back to work? I know that not working/contributing financially can make me feel completely worthless, but I also know that my husband doesn't think I am worthless. Maybe if you talked about these feelings you have, when your husband isn't already pissed, he can assure you that he doesn't think you are worthless either, that he is just frustrated (or whatever it is that he is feeling). Also, I would be inclined to remind him that you chose, for his happiness, to leave a better paying job so that you could live where he wanted. He should have been able to see that moving from where ever you were to a smaller town was going to limit you financially. If he wants you to make more money (and I don't think you should have to work an office job, just because he thinks that will make more money, you went to college for what you do and should be able to have the career you studied for), then he's going to have to be willing to move somewhere that you have more opportunities.
