You make a lot of assumptions when offering advice. I do all of the housework. 100%. All of the grocery shopping, laundry, cleaning, cooking, etc. He did the laundry once because I had cramps. Grocery shopped twice. I don’t even complain about that. These are things I believe the woman of the house is responsible for, and he knows this. I actually prefer to manage these things myself. So the argument of me taking on housework in hopes he will get a 2nd job is null and void because I’ve been doing that since I got here.

This isn’t the first job I‘ve quit since being pregnant, so he knows the deal. He knows that this field can be very stressful. He was in the ER when my blood pressure was through the roof. I’ve sat him down and spoke to him about helping out if I were to end up not working, or after I have the baby and his response is that he’s not living paycheck to paycheck and a 2nd job is too much.

I agree with leaving, because that right there shows me he isn’t ever going to fully step up in the way a man with children should.
