The husband keeps saying he’s fine with whatever his wife wants to do but he doesn’t sound like he’s fine with it. There’s nothing wrong with that but be upfront and honest with your feelings about it. Best wishes to the couple in working it out.

In fairness, people can mean different things when they say "I'm fine with it." Sometimes, they use that phrase to mean "I will wholeheartedly support whatever decision you come to". Sometimes, it means "I don't really give a rat's behind". Sometimes, in between the lines, they're saying "this is an acceptable decision, but not the decision I'd prefer you make".

His question wasn't really what he should have been asking. There's a lot of miscommunication and differences of how each attack debt and savings. If you're not on the same page with money ... yikes. Delaying the inevitable unfortunately, unless they talk to each other and not at each other as was recommended. He got very good advice even if it wasn't to his initial question, up to him whether or not he heard it.

He needs to feel the cost, and I need to have some savings in case we have an emergency, or if he dies first ( we are pensioners and I don't want to loose the jointly owned house to his creditors. ) Our relationship is good, he is a kind, gentle man, he is just weak with budgetting, its not a deal breaker, some things are more important than money. I am just not going to pay this particular bill. It should be paid off by end of the year, then the next discussion is about him contributing to emergency fund !!

He needs to take a step back and be in her shoes. Our mental health is so much more important than freaking money. I get it everyone has debt. But if she needs a break for awhile. Give it to her. She can ALWAYS get a full time job it sounds like with what she does. That's awesome that they have 25k saved back. I get it he wants everything paid off. He needs to be a husband first and understand where she is coming from. When you keep going and going when you're burnt out and miserable. You eventually break. I know because I'm personally going through it. I was at a teaching job three-five years. Not making hardly anything burnt out mentally. Now I finally am getting the break I am needing. I'm working part time for now. I'm doing my hobbies on the side to make extra $. My husband has a great job..where I'm able to do this for awhile. I'm so thankful for that. Because he needed a break a year ago. I held it down for us. Because we are a TEAM! 🙌

@@Faith-un7ns I think you just answered why it won’t get paid off. They didn’t pay off the debt when she worked full-time so nothing is going to change with how much she works. What would hopefully change is for them to get on the same page when it comes to finances and after 13 years of marriage Im surprised it hasn’t happened yet. The suggestion at the end was definitely a good one as they need to determine what they want to do together (not just individually) and then they can redo the budget and come up with a plan of attack for the debt.

@@Faith-un7ns Very true, but I think the “negotiations” like that might’ve contributed to why she doesn’t want to pay off the debt. All she’s had is men boss her around in her life and trying to say “let’s spend $24000” of our savings (regardless of how much she’s working) might not go over so well. I agree that using that savings to pay off the debt is the quickest way to do it, so hopefully they can work out something that works for both of them.

So long as you can pay your bills, tackle your debt and have a bit of spending money, then adjust your budget and allow your wife to work part time. Having been there, suffering in a job you hate / feeling you have no work life balance you can't put a price on that. I'm certain if your wife begins to feel happier, less stressed and knows that you value her wellbeing over money, your relationship will improve too.

They would probably benefit from some marriage counseling. I think she's valid and feeling tired and worn out. But it's a major thing to want to drop 2/3 of your income especially when you're not financially secure. so he's also valid and feeling frustrated that she is wanting to drop down so much in income while they still have all this debt.

I told my girlfriend straight up that I'm not oging to be making that much money in my career. I'd probably top out at 100k and thats about it. I said if you want us to make more money then you have to also get a job and contribute. I put it all out on the line and was straight up honest with her. If you want to make millions, you have to look somewhere else and I'm not taking on multiple jobs and burning out without ever getting a chance to treat myself. It just doesn't work like that but I was open and honest about it.

More money means more financial security and more options. Not taking a better paying job is fine so long as everyone understands that options will be limited and they won't be able to do certain things in life. A simple life isn't a bad life but both people have to be on board with that.

Talking to your partner about improving themselves and their life through promotions or career development is healthy. However when you say she can do what she likes (within reason of course) but then want her to take the money when she may not be happy doing it, not like the company, feels under experienced for the job etc then you’re pushing your partner towards mental health problems down the road.
