freeloader
The husband whom you supported while he tried to establish his business. In addition, you also paid for his vacations. You even bought a new house for you two to live in, but when YOU became in financial straights and asked him to get a supplementary job and made a few suggestions of what he could do,he refused.
1. "I am not going to get a job like that, there would be too much paper work to do!"(Meanwhile, YOU are having to dip into your retirement.)
2. "If I DO get a job, it will only be for ME!"
(read between the lines..."That would mean that I wouldn't be able to be a freeloader so much anymore!"
