Without knowing more, I wouldn’t be too quick to blame the wife. He’s a big boy - for whatever reason, this is the way he wants it.
I worked with a guy once who was always bumming food off people at lunch. The women in the office felt sorry for him and would say they couldn’t believe his wife didn’t pack him a lunch every day and I would say, “But he’s 36 years old.” If a 36-year old man goes hungry because his wife didn’t pack him a lunch, well, he deserves to starve in my opinion. |

Gams -- her parents have a lot of money invested in this marriage, in fact, I would dare say he probably has a subsidized marriage, bc they paid for a huge extravaganza wedding plus the honeymoon which is supposed to be the groom's responsibility, but he didn't have the money for that. With them moving so quickly after the wedding (1.5 yrs) into an expensive neighborhood, and the fact the parents live in an expensive neighborhood, I'm sure they provided the down pmt. We know he doesn't have that kind of money.
Also, when he let us know at literally the last minute we were not invited to the wedding bc her parents were paying for everything, and then again when he informed us they were moving bc the wife thought they should get into a better school district (no kids yet), he acted as if it was difficult for him to say anything, as if somebody was holding a gun to his head (figuratively speaking). So his awkwardness in speaking to us when there had never been a problem before, and him acting as if he really didn't want to move, that's what made us think the wife was behind it. |
