My husband is an immigrant who came here 6 months ago. Now he is a sweet man, but sometimes I feel resentful as my role as sole provider. He relies on me for everything! He speaks little English and he won't even go to the supermarket by himself. He doesn't work (but that's not quite his fault...he's waiting for a green card). He never wants to do anything...the only time he wants to go outside is go with me to the store so I buy him beer and cigarrettes. He watches animation ALL DAY! In other words, he makes no effort to adjust here.
We both lived in Korea (his country) and even I was the one who worked and provided the income. My husband has no ambition whatsoever and never really tried looking for a job or finding a passion in life. Whenever he feels down, he just drinks like crazy. Now, I'm not a golddigger looking for a man to provide for me, but am I wrong for feeling resentful of a man who cannot be indepedent? I'm tired of taking care of everything.
