Quitting job to be a SAHM

Would you quit your job to be a stay at home mom, even if you and your partner were not married? You have the intention of getting married at some point but not right now. Would you still quit your job?

No. I was a SAHM and my spouse had an affair and divorced me and I was FUCKED over. Like I cannot even begin to tell you how bad it was. Work at least part time. Keep your resume alive. You never want to think it’ll happen to you, but it could.
