      My DH always say if only I could earn more than him........

      and I wouldn't mind too..........

      I always tell my DS, in future must get a wife who works.... and better still earn more than him, but still love and adore him..........
      I think my MIL thinks like you... 🤷
      She doesn't like me to be a SAHM and leech off her son...

        I somehow get the same feeling with my MIL. Sometimes she calls home n find that I m at home, then she will ask: oh, how come today u r not working? ( I m doing freelance work).so at home n not working means no pay.
        Whereas with my own mom, she will say: good you can relax today!

                Men are always on the way to money and success. And it's not typical woman doing more for family. Every respected man should make more money then his wife. When i met my bride at https://asian-mail-order-brides.net/turkish-brides/ i was earning very big money and that is one of the reasons she is with me now.

                  It does not matter at all whether who earns better in the family. As long as you can give the need of your family, you are loyal with your partner, and you are true to the vow you promised on your wedding day, everything will be fine.

                        I understand your pain and frustration. believe me, I know how it feels when you were initially ambitious at the peak of your weakness, and then everything gradually begins to crumble. not only financially but also with all this your moral state. but instead, believe me, I know what I’m saying now, instead of sitting on this caste. start looking for work online. and I give a guarantee you find it without leaving home. or better yet! borrow from your wife for business. and then give and earn more
