I'm sorry for whatever almost happened to you. I'm sorry you didn't choose a wife that was willing to downsize/get a job to help you support the family. By the way, if you hadn't earned her respect before marrying her, then there is something fundamentally wrong with the relationship.
Yes, it's generally on the man to financially support the woman. It is also on the woman to support her man, even when the going gets rough. Budget, move into an affordable home, get rid of unnecessary habits/possessions. Stay if not for your spouse, but your children.
This woman married a marine. She knew there was a possibility that he would never come home. And yet, the thought of losing that retirement money was just too much for her too bear. Pathetic.

My wife nearly leaving me motivated to make massive changes in my life: therapy, diet, work-habits. I'm a better husband.
I never side it was right or moral. I said it is the reality of the world we are in. And that world isn't full of sunshine and daisies.
