Thanks guys. It's good to know that's typical of men. It's not typical of me, so I end up projecting that onto other people.
Our problems will be fixed once we find new jobs, but until then, we're screwed. I lost my job in September, and have been looking for a new job since then. And his job is screwing him over and cutting his hours by over half, so now we're living on about $600 a month. We can't pay our rent, let alone our bills, and we had to go on food stamps. We're just lucky that our landlord isn't a dick and won't kick us out of our house.
We used to have date nights, but right now we're so strapped for cash that the only money we can set aside is just barely enough to cover his gas back and forth from work. So I've been trying to think of date night ideas that don't require any money.
