Using Sex For Revenge?
Posted: 09-09-04 23:16pm

I quit my job at the beginning of this year because I was miserable and looking for something different and new. I thought I would be able to get a job soon after but I ended up not having a job for 3 months. I am recently married but we have been dating for 4 years. The fact that I haven't had a job is making it hard on my husband because he is paying the bills and paying for everything that we do.
We got into a really huge fight a while ago. He has been blaming our money shortage on me for three months now telling me that he has been spending all his extra saved up money on bills because I dont have a job and can't help him out with rent. Of course I feel horrible about it. But I found out that he had been lying to me the whole time. He had plently of extra money stored away and had been spending it on his car. While telling me he was only spending $40 here and there, the bill ended up being over $600!! When I confronted him about it he told me it is his money and he can spend it on what ever he wants to without having to consult me about it.
After that, I had recieved a large sum of money from the university I am attending which was left over from my student loan. I told him I was going to spend some of that money on buying things for our new apartment and he told me that not only can I not spend my money, but I had to spend it on things for us like groceries. I went off on him because I was mad that he gets to spend his money on whatever he wants but I can't do what I want with my money. He told me that I can't spend my money because I am a "deadbeat" that sits at home all day on my ass doing nothing but watching tv and surfing the web. Which is totally not true, ever day he comes home the apartment is sprakling, but do I get any thanks or recognition?
Anyway, my point is, ever since that I have been feeling like absolute crap and not interested in having sex with him. We havent had sex in over a week (which is extremly rare for us). Does he deserve it or am I a total witch?

I'll tell you what he deserves...A divorce!
Don't ever let anyone talk to you or treat you like that. You need to leave him. First of all, when you two married you voweled to take care of each other and that was his turn to take care of you. You aren't suppose to cry and whine about it! I can see if he made like minimum wage and you two couldn't afford to eat, but he obviously afforded everything fine with money to spare!
You spend your money on what you want! Dont listen to him! And you really need to leave him and find someone who respects you. He sounds like he is a real loser. How old is he anyway, 19?

Nothing kills your sex life like resentment!You need to work things out before you will feel like making love again.I don't know about you,but the last thing on my mind after an argument is sex!I never got the whole"make-up sex" thing.If i'm pissed,you are not getting any lovin' until i'm over it.Hope you work things out,being jobless is a temporary thing and can be real stressful.Good luck to both of you.Patty
