"Susan" and "David" are in a long term relationship and planning to marry this year or next.
Susan left college and moved out of state to help David pursue his career. David and Susan moved 5 times in 4 years; all over the country for his work, but now they are settled in one town. Susan, because of her sacrifice, now has no degree, minimal job experience, no friends. She does not resent her choice, but she resents the fact that David does not acknowledge all that she has done for him. David is pushing Susan to gain employment somewhere, but all that can be found for women in her situation pays little over minimum wage, whereas David makes almost $100,000 a year. Susan is now accustomed to staying home, and is rather happy to be a "housewife". Should Susan take a low paying job simply to please David? Should David be thankful for what Susan already does?
