okay, i''ve got a major problem. fiance and i are supposed to be married in may. he''s great in every way.. supportive, loving, easy to talk to, caring.. always cooking and taking care of our puppies. i love him so much. my problem is this: since we''ve been together 2+ years he has absolutely STRUGGLED to find work. he is a former member of the u.s. navy and has had some depression since he came back from iraq, but we''ve handled that. he seems very happy and carefree. i am a contract artist and don''t make much money and EVERY MONTH we struggle to pay bills. i absolutely cannot handle it any more. he has never brought in a single dime to the relationship. i pay for our food, bills, etc. he has been going out looking for jobs but "can''t find one" or "can''t get hired". his uncle owns a large company and will probably hire my fiance, but he keeps waiting until a contract gets signed so that the work is available, and every time i turn around the contract has been pushed back another week or month. i''m not sure if he''s telling the truth or what. i know he HAS looked, i''m just not sure whether to blame his unemployment on the economy or what. i''m so fed up. i considering putting my foot down but i don''t want to do this unfairly or in haste. wish i had some answers.
