He owns his own business and does well financially the only downside is he has no health insurance or benefits like someone who would work for a company, but just recently got news he is on his way to start work with a city job which was great news and we were very happy me especially because when we get married I don’t have to worry about leaving work if need be. The only catch is now he will have to continue with both jobs; his business and the city job. Which means he will barely ever be home. I’ve been depressed the last few days because Im trying to figure out if this is something I would love or something I would hate. I always dreamed my future family would be super close and have dinner together every night and go on vacations together and with this busy schedule I don’t see that happening. I also understand times are hard and you need income and if I can stay home and raise my children is also a blessing. Has anyone been in this situation before? Does anyone have any thoughts on this?

He cant carry on working such a routine long term, or he will burn out. Perhaps if you do have kids in the future then he would drop one of the jobs?
