I lost so much money being married to him. Lost my business and my home because of something he did behind my back. Run, Forrest, run!! A few months of being sad and uncomfortable is better than a lifetime of resentment and anxiety, anger and rage. It affects the kids. My husband’s financial indiscretions will ripple through generations. It is like a bomb has gone off in my life. I knew before the wedding because my anxiety was trying to tell me. Listen!

    Jane.. As a single woman who’s also never been married, I completely get the fact that your nest egg gives you security. You’ve depended on yourself with no help or safety net in the form of another’s income for years, worked hard for it and deserve that. It’s 100% ok and right for you to protect it.
    Your anxiety is your intuition screaming at you to get out of this relationship. Listen to it!!!
    He has you paying his bills right now and not only does he not care that he’s freeloading off you, but he doesn’t care that his way of living gives you anxiety. You may think he treats you well enough. But it is basic respect that you are missing. You need to raise your standards.

Only relationship she mentions in HER past is her financial assets, never mentions having even dating before this guy. Interesting she is already paying for their couples therapy but still felt the need to call Dr. Deloney & Mr. Ramsey to get more advice, putting her dirty laundry into public domain. Both of them need to break up and move along because this is a terrible mismatch that will result in a rocky marriage and acrimonious divorce. Caller is not in love, she is infatuated, she doesn't know the difference.
