HI ALL,
I am new here. If I were to write everything down here, I'd be hours, so I'm going to try to be succinct. I got married at age 22, having dated my DH since I was 19. He was my first boyfriend, second I'd kissed. I feel like I was too young looking back. I was partly escaping my mother, and I saw my husband as being a provider. We had a child together, bit at the time he worked for his parents so he could kind of roll in late, take weeks of holiday time etc...well, his dad ended up selling up and we moved to the US. At the start he was working (kind of) for a company his dad owns, but then went bust. The last 2 years, he has been working for a company that he was lucky to end up in. In the end, he found it too stressful and in March 2014 he quit his job with no new job to go to. Now, I have NO objection to him quitting a job that he feels he will have a heart attack if he feels he continues in. BUT, it has almost been a year and he has no new job. I told him as he was telling me he was stressed to start applying for other jobs, bu he did not do that while he was still working. The thing that gets me is that he sits all day and watches TV on his laptop. I mean, seriously!? he should have applied for seasonal jobs or something. Help me.
