I can’t help but feel my wife of 5 years is a loser and kind of dumb. She doesn’t know what she wants to do with her life, is in her mid twenties and didn’t even attempt college. She works an entry level job and does nothing really other than hang out with friends and watch TV. I have repeatedly supported her in finding her passion, but she is too lazy to get the ball rolling on her own. She expects someone else to do the work for her and is angry and depressed that her life isn’t more interesting. She is often outwardly upset with me because of all the things I do with my life in relation to what she does with hers. I’m a filmmaker and work on feature films all over the state and sometimes travel the world. It’s been my dream since I was a kid and I’ve been lucky enough to find some success in it. I try to be encouraging for her and supportive in her finding a passion of her own, but doesn’t DO anything to even try really. It honestly just seems a little pathetic. On top of that, she has no interest in having kids. Instead we have two dogs she spoils and lets get away with anything and everything. Then she gets upset that they don’t obey her and still make messes in the house. I’ve tried to train them and discipline them for seriously 2 years, but she just kind of undoes any training by being completely inconsistent with them. I’ve honestly given up on the dogs, so we just live in filth all the time. Our s** life is practically non-existent. I just don’t even try to approach her anymore, simply because she shuts me down the majority of the time. And when we do have s**, it’s always the same exact thing and really not that great. I keep encouraging her to do some reading and find something new and exciting that we could enjoy together, but she’s pretty much just happy with the same position in the same place every single time. Needless to say, this is just getting sad…
