About women in the workforce?
Am i the only woman out there that feels used in my marriage? This is my second marriage and we have been together 6 years, my husband has been a musician for most of his life. When we first got together i worked a lot and brought in a lot of money, then i became sick 2 years ago and can’t work as much now. I have a form of kidney disease that makes me feel run down and sick 99% of the time. So i can’t physically do what i could then, his mom always cuts me down if i’m not working full time and asks him if he is going to be able to “do it all”. He is 57 years old and works as a security guard. I have tried to move into a position that’s easier for me(i’m a nurse), but he says i have to work in nursing cause that pays better. So i’m feeling a bit resentful and wonder if i’m being unfair. Who came up with the idea that women should HAVE to work anyway? I always thought it was the mans responsibility to work and take care of the family! What do you think?
Ok let me say i have no problem with working just that it should not be my sole responsibilty to make the most money. And yes i have to admit i did think it was cool to hook up with a musician but thats not why i married him, i married him cause i love who he is not what he does.
Thanks for your answers though.
