My Husband Is Unemployed?AGAIN!!? | Travel and Leisure

Question by : My Husband Is Unemployed?AGAIN!!?
My husband is unemployed again, this is like 7 jobs in 10 years?I keep waiting for it to get better, but seems it is only getting worse with each passing year.

He will have a job, we get ahead, save a little, plan to buy a house, and then he loses his job?this happens over and over. He restructures companies and bankruptcies?I think what he does is make the companies he works for promises he cannot live up to?to make the company millions, and then he can?t. They then lay him off. I am at my wits end.

I just want a husband (like all my friends do) who is able to provide us a house, savings, retirement, many have vacation homes, travel, etc. We do nothing and have nothing.

I have a job in the healthcare field, so I have been working. I don?t want to support him for the rest of my life, I can?t support him. I have Rheumatoid Arthritis, and the stress and hard life is killing me. My body cannot take it with all the stress. There are days I cannot move. I am 45 and I wanted to be able to retire when I?m somewhat older, but that doesn?t look like reality.

I don?t want to live in poverty, I lived one when I was growing up. I desire a life of wealth and leisure?he keeps promising me it will come, but it never comes. When I get ready to retire, I wanted a nice home, savings for retirement, travel, leisure, vacations?all i am seeing is despair and poverty.

He has constantly lied to me over our marriage?for example, he told me he had LOTS of money when we dated and got married, however, I came home to find out the water was turned off for non-payment?also the house soon had a foreclosure notice posted on the door from non-payment?he was broke. Since all our years of marriage, it hasn?t really improved?this is not what I signed up for.

I am thinking of just packing my bags and leaving?I no longer think I love him. I was hoping when I married him, that things would be different, that he would support me and have a great life. I never thought I?d be supporting a husband financially. I want my life to be enriched with him, not worse. It is constantly bad?we will get ahead a little and then we get behind a lot?

Sometimes I just want to buy a one-way-ticket and go someplace else and start a new life?

Please give me your opinion?I would appreciate it so much.

Well, it?s not exactly ?fair? to think HE should provide YOU with such a great life, that by the way, EVERYONE wants.

On the flip-side?..7 jobs in 10 years IS a bit extreme.

Just remember, you can divorce him if you want to, but do not be expecting a knight in shining armour to come galloping into your driveway anytime soon??45 is getting a wee bit old for that??
