W: I work harder than you, you have it easy. YOU'RE a trophy wife! (Bet none of the H's here have heard THAT one!)
Boy...that one is an odd thing to come out of her mouth. Why does she think you have it easy? Because you're home every evening cooking dinner??!
Because I like my job and it's not as stressful as hers. She puts in a lot of OT during the summer. Plus, as we all should be doing, I actually ENJOY every day!

I'm curious to know if W is initiating touches with you?
No, but I'm gonna start again. I'll keep you updated.
Quote:
What's new with me is that I am starting a new job next week that will be 2x my previous salary. Sweet!
Sweet indeed, and good for you! Similar work or something new?
2x your salary means you can keep living as you are now, and invest the rest. Become financially independent in X years and retire early if you choose!
M: A really long time. Crisis: 5 years. She's still worth it.
Life is never made unbearable by circumstances, but only by lack of meaning and purpose. -Viktor Frankl
