O Connor agony auntwell in losing his job he has lost confidence and taken a blow to his ego - what with men feeling the need to be the breadwinner and that. just give him the emotional support he needs without making him feel like less of a success. he feels like he has failed right now - failed you aswell. just be patient, he will eventually gain more confidence as time goes on, and im sure wen you settle into a new home etc., things will start to look brighter to him.

Annalisa agony auntI actually agree with Laura on this one. He must feel like his life is falling apart, so you need to be supportive and show him your love. Say you'll be there for him and give him time. If he's lost his job, he can sign on and get help with his bills, unless you're living together. Most companies are quite understanding about loss of employment and will be able to arrange payment plans. Ask him if he would like your help and advise him as best you can. Be positive and patient, and you'll both be just fine!

God bless you and good luck!

Laura1318 agony auntTry to give him moral and emotional support .Be more understanding and patient. Try to avoid contentious issues and picked up the slack if you can without criticizing him .

Losing his job can make him lose his confidence and self esteem.
