“When your skills were no longer needed, you were kicked to the curb.”
You might want to re-read the article. She divorced him, not the other way around. She wasn’t kicked to the curb. She decided to go off on her own. She had it made - a husband making a ton of money and kids and a house. And threw it all away.
Oops! Sorry. Either way, I wasn’t feeling the LEAST bit sorry for her. :)
“There were ugly fights with her husband about laundry and over who would step in when the nanny was out sick.”
OMG! OMG! She was JUSTIFIED in leaving, then, LOL!
My 52 y/o sister has been a stay at home mom raising her kids. Her husband has a steady decent paying job although he’s ran up credit cards and their home is in foreclosure.
Nothing a little Dave Ramsey applied steps couldn’t cure but my sister wants a divorce plus she’s rekindled a high school romance and is locked into that direction. A christian marriage counselor is what they need and he’s for it but not her. I worry some because she has very little marketable skills other than some office work but it costs a fortune to live in the NY area. Oh well its her choice and she will have to live with it but I tried to steer her toward reconciling her marriage but she’s not having any of it. Its become quite toxic now her divorce proceedings. My sweet sister is turning into a mean beeeech sad to say.
