I'm having a hard time with the fact that my partner is still employed but I am not. I feel like I'm going crazy and getting needy.

This is so hard - I struggled with this a lot when I was unemployed and my SO was working. It didn't get better until I started volunteering and filling up my schedule with things I felt were worthwhile. This was obviously pre covid, though.

I hope you're able to feel less needy again soon. If it is any consolation, I'm working full time and quarantine is making me feel more needy, too.

Let me know if you get some good tips!

Is your day occupied with productive stuff? If not, thats probably it.

How do you all reconcile your current very high salaries with living a normal lifestyle? For example, my spouse is in big law and I make 25% of that salary (also a lawyer).

With our current income, the homes we’ve been eyeing are a joke (so cheap) but with 2x MY current income (assuming spouse leaves big law), the house is a stretch. What to do…

Do people lie and say they have competing offers when interviewing? I’ve noticed a lot of candidates are saying they have other offers on the table, but this job is their preference. For those that don’t get the job, I’ve looked back at their LinkedIn profiles and it doesn’t appear that they got new roles from these alleged competing offers.
Is this a tactic that candidates are using now to appear more desirable/ create urgency / salary negotiation tactic? Or am I reading too much into it.
