Gotta say, I sympathize with you there. Sort of the "well, gotta make the rent, and this job beats working at the A&P, but I don't particularly like it, though I don't know what I'd like better, at least enough so to take a pay cut, and they keep kissing my ass in reviews so I must be doing something right despite being ambivalent and sort of half-assed about it, but this is looking more and more like a rut" thing? That's familiar.
Sidd, if you don't like people bitching about being lawyers, dude, I think you're on the wrong board.

Can't give up the dough, but can't stand producing it cause the Mrs. needs the home of her dreams and kids. Fuck it...

Dude, if the Mrs. wants that shit, why doesn't she go the fuck out and get a job to get it? I have no, ZERO, ZLICH, NADA, sympathy for the idea that it is someone else's responsibility to provide you with the lifestyle to which you wish to become accustomed. Why is it YOUR responsibility to provide her a lifestyle subsidy? Because if you don't she won't wuv you or give head anymore? That's not marriage, that's prostitution. Sure, major lifestyle changes have to be discussed mutually, but expecting that you will cash in your piece of mind & ambitions for her material comfort is total, total bullshit. Fuck that.
