A female United States age , anonymous writes:

i have been remarried for almost a year now , my problem is my husband just wont work a full time job, but has very bad spending habit, he loves to eat out , i am a very good cook and he says he enjoys my cooking but he would rather eat out , we spend about 20-25 dollars each time we eat out, he does have a job but only works 20-24 hours a week, but he does go to the gym for 2-3 hours a day, (but he is still overweight)he doesnt help around the house unless i really ask him serveral times to do so, my son who works 54hours a week does all the outside work, my husband is in his 40s he loves to play online games (no gambling)(no porn)loves tv. how can i get him to understand it takes more than $100 a week to run a houshold we have a mortgage.this is my 2nd marrg. i was married for 29yrs and he has been married 4 times before me none lasted more than 2 yrs.. he is very attentive to me personally and loving. but i feel i married a boy not a man so wants to be the head of the houshold. he is always wanting to see his family , but i do not get to see my children or grandchildren like i used to..

Sphronas agony auntYou are not going to change a man who has been living like this for forty years. I am afraid your only choices are to accept him the way he is or to get out of this marriage.
