I'm looking for some advice from those of you that are retired but your spouse continues to w*rk. I ER'd about 6 weeks ago and my spouse is planning to w*rk for some time yet (several years, maybe longer). Even though she was very supportive of my decision to ER, I think she is now a little frustrated that she is w*rking and I'm not. Financially, there is no issue with my ER - it is not making any difference to our budgets. I do all of the housework, honey-do lists, etc - and I think she appreciates that. She likes her job okay, but like all jobs, it's never perfect. IMO, she still needs to w*rk as her career is a major part of her life, right now. She is two years younger than I am.
I'm sure this "discomfort" will pass as we both continue to get used to the changes that ER brings, but I was wondering if others went through this, and how it worked out.
