Moving out to my own place would cause so much stigma among everyone I know. I would feel so weird, telling everyone what was going on. Plus, how the hell would I pay for my own place along with nearly the entire monthly mortgage that I pay. An apartment would probably cost MORE than what we pay for our mortgage! Moving dealing with all that is too much of a hassle and not what I would ever do.

If he would at least be honest with me with what is going on with him, but he never tells me his plans or how he's feeling until he's been pulling the crap like he's pulling now for weeks. I'll be so angry and want to know what is going on but he'll just joke with how he's such a loser by not going to work, but at least he's not out at bars every night drinking and picking up women and then change the subject. I get it if you don't like your job and you want to find a new one, but every time this happens he feels the need to take days off of work to figure out what he needs to do when in reality he isn't figuring out what to do, he's just avoiding work and going into his own fantasy world of video games. And once he starts, he can't stop. Who in this world can not go into work for days at a time, sometimes not even calling in, and NEVER lost their job??!! What employer constantly says "ok" when he comes up with these outlandish stories as to why he cant' be at work?

I mean I stayed home from work yesterday and again today because I have a cold and I feel bad doing that even when they encourage you to stay home if you're sick. I almost always go in when I'm sick so it's really hard for me to feel okay with staying home. Yet he will stay home for days without a care in the world that he will lose his job...and he never does!
