We have been married just over 2 years. We met nearly 6 years ago. No kids...we're both in our 40's and this is a first marriage for both of us.
Why doesn't he work....hmmm...that's a question my mother would like answered too. lol. There are probably a hundred reasons why he doesn't work...he is not incapable. And, in fact, it is kinda nice to have someone else run various errands, do the laundry, take care of the dogs during the day, clean (sometimes). It just happens that I am in a better career and have a much higher earning potential.
I appreciate all your advice about not doing anything for 48 hours. I just don't know how I'm going to manage that. He will know...just as I think he suspected something yesterday (he was incredibly attentive). Besides, I'm not sure I won't be able to burst into tears when I walk in that house.
I'm going to stop at the bookstore and see about that book...I almost wish I could work late, but he'll call again if I'm not home by 5:15 or so. Oddly enough, he hasn't called again today since our regularly scheduled 10am call (which I did not return).
God I wish I could make him feel all this insecurity that I am feeling right now. I wish I could make him wonder if I'm meeting someone or talking with some other man.
Thank you all so much for your advice...I just have to get through 'til tomorrow at 3...
