Dear Ann Landers,
have been with "him" for five years. We met through my brother. I ended up jumping from a shaky relationship into one with "him" -- which everyone knows is not the way to go. For a while, it was OK, but then we started to argue a lot, and it's still that way. "Him" has a hot temper and flies off the handle easily. He doesn't help with anything in the house. I do the laundry, cleaning, cooking and grocery shopping. I pay all the bills, and he pays the mortgage. I love "him," but don't know if I should stick around. He puts everyone and everything ahead of me and has no consideration for my feelings. He often criticizes me in front of friends and family, which is humiliating. I work and am financially independent. Should I leave him?

Dear Winnipeg,
You do the marketing, cooking, cleaning, laundry and pay all the bills. He criticizes you, humiliates you in front of family and friends, has no consideration for your feelings, and pays the mortgage. Hello-ooo there! Anybody home? For heaven's sake, woman, pay the mortgage yourself and dump "him."

Our Reader to Reader Question of the Week:


Dear Readers,
, whatever they needed I provided. What really hurt my son and I the most was the obituary - we were not mentioned at all. Our friends (mine and hers) were appalled. I was embarrassed and upset for not just me, but for my son-who loved her also. I never been so upset. Her x-husband put his wife and kids and their grandchildren in the obituary, who my girlfriend barely knew. They live an hour away from us. I know its silly to be mad over a little section of the newspaper, but it still hurts. Will time let this devastating loss of her and this article ever go away? I am so angry at this whole situation, its not like we can go and rewrite an obituary notice.

Tell us what you think?
