I work with a woman who only works a very meager part time schedule, sometimes like 15 hours a week or less, and while Im sure she enjoys all the time off to spend with her kids and all, she really is basically a dependent. She may do all or most of the housework and babysitting, which is fair if her husband is the one spending more of his time earning the majority of their income, but shit, if he ever leaves her, whether voluntarily or involuntarily, shes going to be fucked. I could never be in a situation where I knew my wife wouldnt be okay if I left.

And maybe its really judgmental of me, but I kind of see her as a kid even though shes older than I am. This may have to do with the fact that she told me that her husband also handles all the money, and that she always seems happy and smiling from ear to ear when shes at work. Not in a Im trying to have a positive attitude type of way. More like in a Im super naive about how much more difficult a job is supposed to be and am clueless about why my co-workers are constantly so stressed out kind of way.

Anyway, what little I know about her homelife makes me wonder if her husband wants it to stay this way with her so he can have control over her or something. Because their situation feels a lot like a dad and daughter more so than husband and wife.
