I have to work for two jobs because my husband doesn’t know how to make money. And he blames me for typing at night and disturbing his sleep. I’m working, by the way, not just looking at my Instagram feed!
We have been married for three years. We met completely by chance. At that time I was already 39 years old, and I realized that I had to jump into the last carriage, if I did not want to remain an old maid.
All of my friends were already married, and some of them had already been married for a second time, and I was still pursuing my career. The time came when I wanted to settle down. I hadn’t had much luck with men in my life, but Jacob seemed “different.
We decided to live with me, since Jacob didn’t have a place of his own. Despite the fact that he was already 42 years old, he lived with his mother. His sister also lived there with the twins. I had my own apartment, which I earned by honest work without the help of my parents.
The utilities were on me. Food was on me. Jacob kept saying he’d get his paycheck at the end of the month, but I never got it. In fact, just two months after the wedding, he announced that he had been fired. He is still in no hurry to find a job, sitting at his mother’s house or in front of the TV.
I put up with all his antics, but I’m not iron! Not only that, he reproaches me that he is tired of listening to the clacking of buttons when I work at home. Last week he even raised his hand at me because I did not have time to prepare dinner. What should I do?
