He doesn't want to be too rich, a more comfortable life, just average, enough to live, no debt.

My husband grew up in a wealthy family but his parents were frugal. From the outside, no one knew they were rich because they lived very sociable with everyone, drove regular cars, didn't use luxury goods, and didn't show off their material possessions. Only when they came to their house did people know they were rich because their houses were all in million-dollar areas and the scenery was very beautiful.

Since he was young, his father had been successful in business and had money to take him to travel all over the world. His mother was a housewife but educated, so she was very thoughtful and affectionate. Even when he was in kindergarten, his mother applied to teach there so she could see him every day.

He grew up in the care and love of his parents, but his father did not guide his career or find out his interests, passions or talents so that he could focus on practicing early, he just told him to do whatever he wanted to study and do. His father gave him money to study for a master's degree, he did not have the pressure of earning money while studying like me.

I met him by chance through a friend, he liked me at first sight because my appearance suited his taste. I am a traditional woman, not going too far before marriage, which made him want to marry me and propose after a year of dating. His parents are religious so they also wanted him to marry someone they had never lived with before, they also didn't care how rich or poor my family was, as long as he loved me.

We have been married for 10 years, we have two children but his career is still stagnant, his salary has not increased, he is just an employee, while his father has shares in many companies that he does not have the talent or ability to manage. He only likes to do housework, all day long he likes to clean, cook, make bread, take care of the children. He has no ambition in his career, he just wants to live with his wife and children.

Since we got married, we have only had one house, two cars, a piece of land, our children go to private schools, and we travel everywhere. My friends have changed houses and cars several times, far surpassing me. I still live in the same house I bought 10 years ago, drive an old car, and my salary has not increased. There are many people who started out with nothing and their family background is far superior to him. I don't know if I am lucky or what dangers I will face in the future when my husband is still so mediocre, without ambition, without the will to strive.

In addition, my husband is not popular with everyone. He often argues and has conflicts with people around him, including his father and sister. He only has one or two friends and now he rarely contacts them. His life revolves around his wife and children, watching TV, cooking, and cleaning.

He is petty and critical, I don't like being around him. Whenever he is in the kitchen complaining, I am in the other room. At night, after putting the kids to bed, he reads a book, and I watch TV alone in my room. We have different ways of thinking, different visions of life, and we are disconnected. If we didn't have children together, we probably wouldn't have anything to do together, each with different interests and personalities.

I like meeting many people, going out and winning people's hearts because I speak and behave skillfully, not offending others like him. Any friend I took him to meet did not like him so they avoided me. Later, I rarely introduced him to my friends. None of his friends from school days contacted him anymore. None of his colleagues liked him, once he tried to join his father's company but the people around him always looked at him with disdain and jealousy, which also made him feel hurt.

He was incompetent so he left the company and found a job outside. I felt sorry for a person with a good starting point like him but he was getting further and further behind in life. I gradually lost my feelings because I no longer respected the ideal man I hoped for.
