Dear Queenie,
My colleague is getting married. Her husband-to-be is unemployed and has been that way throughout their entire relationship. She complains that all he does is watch TV and she pays all their bills so she never has enough left over for recreation. Then she gets jealous when the girls in the office discuss what we did over the weekend. She is always stressed out, living pay-check to pay-check.
Queenie, what advice do you have for her?—Concerned co-worker
Dear Co-worker,
My advice to your colleague is: Dump that free-loading bum!
It may not be easy for you, but it is possible that doing so will motivate him to shape up, get a job and start carrying his own weight.
However, as long as you are willing to support him, what incentive does he have to even try to find work or pay his own way, let alone support you? What will you do if he gets you pregnant? How will you manage to work through your pregnancy and support yourself and your child once it is born?
I say it again: Dump that free-loading bum!
