I want to have this conversation with my husband, but I’m scared of how he’s going to take it. It’s weighing on me. To me, it’s a good idea, but you can’t predict what a man’s ego might make him do.

So, here’s the thing. My husband has been home for the past eight months. He lost his job, but he has been trying. He’s a good man, and I think he deserves the best. Since he has been home, I think our home has been in great shape. He takes the kids to school and picks them up in the afternoon. He gets them something to eat and helps with their homework.

Sometimes, I come home to find food prepared. When I’m coming home from work, I know I’m returning to a family in good shape. They are usually in the hall waiting for me. I love to see the smiles on their faces. I want that to continue.

We have a side job that is doing well. We have two dispatch riders who deliver the things we sell. Since my husband is home, he takes care of the side job, managing the riders and getting the best out of them. If we continue this way, this side job could become our main source of income in a few years.

So, I want to suggest to my husband that he forget about the job search and consider staying home. Everything I have is his, and I think we are doing well. We have a joint account where all our income goes. What we have is enough to keep us in good shape. I want to know: is it a good idea to start such a conversation? Especially when I know how hard my husband has been trying to find a new job?

That Is The Craziest Thing I’ve Ever Done In The Name Of Love

I just want to be sure and not ruin anything. Our home is peaceful. I don’t want to upset the balance, which is why I need to be certain. Should I go ahead and suggest that he stay home, or should I keep my opinion to myself?
