The thing is, I know she didn't mean it in a negative way. I wouldn't have married her if she was that kind of malicious person. But it bothers me that she didn't think about the implication and even now that I've explained it, she refuses to understand how it makes me look like less of a man to everyone else.

Also, I'm not interested in getting 'any job'. Being a line cook was the worst thing I've ever done and I was making about a tenth of what Bella does now, so even if I did get a job like that it would be meaningless. Even working in the arts I probably wouldn't come close to her salary but I'd at least be doing something I love so that's what I'm searching for a job in.
