I have been married for almost 14 years. struggling financially to cope with my full time housewife. we have 2 kids.

The biggest problem is financial where im earning decent income but not able to provide luxury that she demands. worst is she is superstitious where she kept asking me to change name, change phone number because those number dont bring me luck which i certainly do not believe at all.

Argued several times from this and this is draining me mentally to come back home everyday facing this type of nonsense.

Been hinting about divorce several times during bad argument but in the end she didnt suggest divorce.

I do most of the housework despite working but somehow im always the one to blame whenever any problem happen at home.

Now im just hanging on for our kids and i cannot accept single parenting.

Maybe go marriage counseling.

kids how old? Not easy jaga kids and the house. House work is the most insane monotonous repetitive shit that will drain your soul. Everyday without skip must take cloth masuk washing machine, wait 1hour+ then hang them all. Chase after the sun, beware of rains and to collect them as soon as dry else those cloths become damp when the weather cools suddenly. On top of that got kids at home ur sink forever has some stuff waiting to be cleaned, slack a bit the whole sink will become like gunung there. Other than that u need to plan groceries, plan what to cook, keep track of kids enrichment classes, school progress and attend to their daily request.

At the same time housewife social circle also damn limited compared to your work place. They daily interact with kids. The adults around them aint normal either, cos they will be similar housewife or educators (honestly in malaysia the teacher all got very bad ppl skill).

Finally those housewife will always feel "trapped". Cos everything they do will revolve around the kids/family. Totally no time to do whatever fuck they want. You can go snake at work place, go social with kolik. They have very limited options cos need jaga kids. At night need to be like prostitute attend to ur sexual need no matter how tired. worse if u sour face her and question her "what did u do whole day?".

And remember, housewife basically got no retirement fund. No EPF. Their fate is solely on ur hands. You can divorce her when she is 50s' . if u are cruel enough u can bankrupt her through divorce proceeding just so she give up on lengthy battle to claim half ur asset. because she literally has no savings for lawyer unless u give her bonus cash in her own name occasionally. Everything she has will be solely from u. It's not the type of life u will call secure. Which also the reason why housewife non stop asking for this n that, they just want to feel appreciated but using the wrong method.

Kids are 8 and 12. yes i agree housework is never easy since i do most of it including cleaning the rooms and ironing. we live with my parents so basically most of the house work is done by my mother. we only settle our own room. we do have dryer but she decided not to use it as she claim it will damaged the clothes which i dont mind. kids spend most of the time outside and transport is all well taken care of by me and my parent since they working nearby the school.

I agree work do have more time for social and i do not stop her from going out. she goes out occasionally with her friends.

yes she doesnt have EPF which is why i subscribed for i-sayang which transfer partial of my EPF to her to safeguard her future.

my problem is she will always ask me to go all out to do more side business to earn more and stop hesitating and stop planning. Just do it first but my heart keep asking what if it failed badly and affect our whole family since im the sole breadwinner.

She doesnt bother about money and buy what she deem needed. pricing was never her priority. Thats why my credit card that i borrowed her owe more than 15k and i have insisted this is her own spending she needs to own up to it. i have paid a lot in the past but enough is enough. she rather just pay the minimum amount every month and take her own sweet time to clear it.
