My S.O. makes a great income, and I'm the "kept" husband... don't do nearly as much as I should, but I scrubbed the kitchen yesterday. I need to do better, because I'm not paying it back, or forward. We should both be living in paradise, and this post has inspired me... he deserves better than I've given him for the past eighteen years.
If you don't get it, you need to STFU.
For me, this has been a valuable thread. Fucking priceless with the responses, and especially so since I came into an inheritance - but he doesn't want anything and doesn't want me to spend a penny on him.
Try and shop for a guy like that - gave you everything, wants nothing.
When, in a fit of anger, I told my sisters that I'd got the best husband ever, I wasn't joking.
