KD- Thanks for sharing. Your comment about flip-flopping stay at home parent happened to us, too. OMG, a few yrs. ago we decided to switch and to have me more at home because my schedule was more flexible and w's job was more stable as a teacher with great benefits..mutual decision.
When we were still in mc, w says, "It's time for you to start contributing to the family." WTF, this is coming from someone who use to praise me for how involved with the kids I am and that "the kids will always remember their daddy was there." So, she now uses her request against me?? W also said "I think you resent me for making more money than you." Again, untrue I always would boast of her accomplishments and her biggest fan. Use to make triple her salary. It was AGREED for me to supplement income intil all the kids wre in school, then ramp up again, grrr.
Have no idea who w has become since March. When i surrendered my heart completely after "really hearing" her, she said I gave you my heart for years, now I need to think differently..and boy has she. WAW syndrome is NOT pretty. And, through it, I love her through it all. So tragic for our kids. She said they will be fine..bull!@#$
