Prayers 🙂 remain a good dutiful wife, and you’ll soften his heart towards it in time. Pray for him often, and offer masses for your marriage. Yes, these things should have been dealt with before, but it’s to late now to worry about. Focus on the future, his good qualities, and your marriage promise to God.
Thank you very much.
I try to be a good wife but i work a lot so its difficult to be a good one. As an example, I can't  prepare his lunch all times ... I would be happy doing home chores. Anyway,  Hubby doesn't care...
We didn't discuss those things very much before because he has some sort of trauma about all this stuff...
If there are true catholic women and they have husbands who provide for them and are caring and loving, they are im paradise. In this times,being at home with your children is EVERYTHING. Im very scared about my future children being brainwashed with gαy propaganda, feminist, commie and liberal stuff... 
In one hand I feel very guilty... on the other hand I love my husband and want him to be happy.
I only pray that he really converts to traditional catholicism (he is catholic, but with an important dose of modernism).

OP, I'm sorry. :( You certainly are in a predicament, but you must not despair. There is much to be hopeful for. You seem very overwhelmed and stressed out. Remain centered in Christ and guard your peace of heart. Negative thoughts that are dwelt too long upon will fester. Try to remain cheerful- it will be best for you and your husband.

Be sweet to your husband. Be kind, gentle, and accommodating as you can. Approach him with meekness and humility and try never to quarrel. You married him as he is, so you will need much patience. Say your Rosary daily- our Lady is faithful! And be the absolute best Catholic wife you can be.

Are there other families that go to this Latin Mass you go to? Are there other families you can make friends and spend time with? Being in the presence of holy families brings about a healthy admiration in those with eyes to see it. Maybe he can fall in line with some other men in the parish?

I will certainly pray for you. Don't lose heart! Many a faithful wife has converted a wayward husband (and vis-versa).

Are you working because he believes 2 incomes are necessary?

If he insists on another income, would it be out of the question to work from home?

Im a newlywed.
Congratulations and blessings on your marriage.
.
I love my hubby very much .
OK! So it's early days yet. Marriage takes a lot of adjusting to. It can be a bit of a comedown after all the excitement of the wedding, but now is the time to concentrate on getting to know each other and to grow together.
.
but I feel very depressed.
How is your general health? You sound unnecessarily anxious.
Can you talk to your Mum?
To your doctor?
Is this a pattern for you to be anxious?
.
He thinks women should work outside home and I do not. I work outside... i dont have another option.
You have no children yet.
What would you be doing if you were not working?
How many hours do you work?
Do you have enough income ?
.
Im very scared.
What are you scared of?
.
He is against homeschooling.
He may change his mind, if you build more confidence yourself and your decisions.
.
Im terrified of having kids....
Why are you terrified of having kids?
.
Im married to a good and caring husband but very troubled because of his past....
Why not live in the present? The past is done and gone, whatever it is. There is no way to change it. Accept, and thank God, and your husband, for what you have.
.
Of course divorce is not a solution.
Is you husband thinking of divorce? Or only you?
Give your husband positive affirmation and encouragement.
There will be enough problems in marriage. Deal with what comes, not what might, or might not come. Live in the present. It is all you have.
.
We had some fights because of this... and I said to him that he has to respect my views.
Be careful of laying down the law to him. Be meek and humble. He will love you for it.
And before careful not to criticise your m-i-l.
.
Please never allow your daughters to marry in this scenario.
Is it really as bad as you paint it, or is that your depression speaking?
.
Please pray for us to do what is God's will.

Of course divorce is not a solution.

I find it a bit disturbing that the notion of divorce could possibly be mentioned by a "newlywed".

Unfortunately, now that you're married, this notion of "respecting" one another's opinion weighs in his favor, as you're subject to him.  So you must pray, and set good example, and attempt to persuade.
