Am I Being Selfish?

[trideltrockstar]

Hey, relationships are about compromise. If you want to go to law school, you should! There is definitely a double standard unfortunately, but if you want to make it work, I'm sure you will! Good luck with everything.

If your husband wanted to go to law school, there would be absolutely no debate about you working to put him through school and cover expenses for the time while he is a student.

Tell your family you love them, but to MYOB.

Email mom thanking her for reminding you that it may be true that the wife should fit in with the husband's plans. Your husband's plan is for you to go to law school. .

I like this answer!

Are our mothers distantly related? I swear I could hear this one sided conversation coming across the phone line to me. That being said, I don't think you are being selfish or anything like it. It's want you want to do and you should be able to do it if the opportunity has come up.
