What I said in the original post was the one and only time I ever really felt inferior.I think much of it was because everything happened so suddenly(felt that way),I quit my job,my husband became very sick,we used all our money to keep afloat paying the mortgage,car payments,etc.and then we ran out of money,it was all so unexpected.We would have been fine without my job if he hadn't got sick and off work.
I was feeling so down and out and there my T was,with all his wealth and glory while I was grateful to get expired food from churches and pantries.It was a very humbling experience.
I do believe if I had talked about it my T would have been very comforting and supportive,but I also believe he wouldn't have fully understood what it was like and what I was going through.While he was busy buying a new car and giving his old one away(yes,he gave it away) I was hungry.
