  • Funny because my wife’s dad (its her actual one, well as far as we know) was sorta a misogynist and she to has esteem issues. We have been together for awhile so not as bad but it never completely goes away. Curiously when we dated I recognized her dad was sorta like my mom who myself and my siblings thought was just awful but admittedly, given a choice, its worse for it to be the dad. Its a very weird situation for me because on my own I have done very well education and job wise. So well that as a family we do decently if not high on the hog (which is really a big deal given the expenses). All the same it would take so little to fall apart mainly due to expenses. Right now Im unemployed (was let go mid late september which I find is a really bad time just before a crazy pres election that goes into holidays) and between looking for work im constantly trying to figure out how long we can go without me working. We are getting older and when I do the math on retirement its not going to work. I dunno again its so weird because im simultaneously really successful and yet really… well you know.
