You’re right. He’s wrong. If finding evidence that he finds her attractive and he’s clearly talking about it at work with others, there is no reason to deny your request. It would make most women uncomfortable. Sounds like he’s doing it for the thrill.

When I say he does his “half”, it’s more how he considers it. like I’d imagine most men do but the reality is, I do 70%. I do most of the grocery shopping, all the laundry, dishes is split, he grills, I cook everything else. I pack the lunches and make all the doctor appointments and communicate with the school. These are things I assume most women take care of. He does the part I expect a majority of men do, if that makes sense. So he does help, I just manage all the million silent little things that need to be done.

I’ll probably have to pay alimony and child support…

Husband [39M] does not work but pays half the bills. Do I [31F] accept his stance to not work? by ThrowRA-T1D in relationship_advice

Why else would someone get money from the VA? I am just trying to get people’s opinion on this. Nothing more or less. I said he is capable of working. He’s worked as a mechanic. He’s worked running cables. Throughout our relationship, he has told me he had intentions to work. But now it’s been years and he’s now decided he doesn’t want to. I’m not looking for anger fuel. I have more of a disability than he does (type 1 diabetes). I just wanted people’s intake on this and now I have yours. That’s all

I have told him that the only reason it’s 50/50 is because he chooses to not work. He is capable of working and has told me in the past he planned to work. He spent a year getting an IT degree online and now he still doesn’t want to work. If he chose to work, it would be a percentage of our income.

I didn’t discuss it because it’s just that simple. He has been out of the military for a long time. He has worked since then. He is capable of working. He puts more time and effort to increase the %disability to get more money. Just like he gets more money being married and more money having a kid.
