I feel for you - my DH was out of work for nearly a year (a few years ago) and things were really hard. I went back to work FT (in a job I hated, but we needed the money/benefits) and tried to be supportive of his job search but every time I asked how it was going, he'd get defensive. I think you tread a fine line here... you obviously need to let your DH know that he needs to get his act together but he probably already knows that and his irritability (really, depression) is because he knows he has failed you. Can you try counseling? Or gently asking him to do A, B, and C while you are at work because otherwise it's too much for you? My DH's unemployment was 4 years ago and only recently thru counseling have we been able to work through what it did to our relationship. GL. [ Reply | Watch | Flag ]
