I think he is the typical man that would want to be the breadwinner etc but now their whole "career" if we can say that? Is based on her so he is probably trying to be the boss in other areas. I never lik3d himI think he definitely manipulates her and treats her like a dumb child. She goes along with it - but prob secretly has some resentment. He gives me the mega ick and she has been beaten down by the loss of her dad and the miscarriages and seems like a very fragile person that she has accepted it.
