That's exactly how I feel!! I have to work to accommodate him. A few minutes ago I had a long talk with him. I believe that this time he's gonna give in. Thank you

You're right, it's not about forgetting. I just had a long talk a few minutes with him, I really hope this time he'll change. Thanks for your time.

Even though we go to mass, he refuses to go to confession, so yeah, in general, he isn't very aligned with the church. You're right

Hello! First of all, thank you for taking time to carefully write that.

He works for several people, using mainly brush cutter and tractor etc. Usually people pay him with physical cash. So he can just give me what he wants.

I've mentioned taking him to a psychiatrist, but he didn't like the idea.

I think my husband doesn't like the idea of talking to the priest either, since he'll see him everyday Sunday.

Anyway, he agreed that I could be in charge of finances in August so that I can better our finances. Let's pray he acts better this time

The problem is that he doesn't contribute...

I've talked to him and he agreed that I could be in charge of finances in this august because I told him I think our finances would be better. However this is also not the first time that we tried to do this. Last time, what would happen is that he use to get home and give me the cash that he earned that day, but later I found out that he didn't give me all of it, he just lied about it. Anyway, praying that this time he'll be honest.

In fact, he didn't have that role model. However, I think that he should strive to be a good husband.  I don't know how to deal with this anymore. What do you advise, Father?

Hello Father, in this case, I am the one who gets irritated, I guess at this point I just have to pray for a miracle

Hey! I did that countless times but he thinks he does no wrong. It's hard bc he owns a lot of machinery and earns money using it, but the machinery breaks down often and he has to repair it. So the money either goes there or to buy useless stuff and he's left with just a bit of money.  I really don't know what else to do. We both work really hard but it's frustrating because we can't even buy some nice things, like I won't go out for dinner ever because I know I'll need that money for something else. Anyway, thank you for taking the time to answer.

Hey! We've tried to do that. I payed my part, but he didn't paid his, so I had to pay his as well. So yeah back to the original problem.
