Sure, why not? It's just a job. What if he worked at the county dump and got his hands dirty with trash all day? Same thing.

Why? Are you worried he wouldn't pine over your body if it died? Or is it too close to death for you?

I guess itd be a good thing we already had kids!
Neh neh neh, those not the rules Don't you dream of a great guy who you will want to spend the rest of your life with? Supporting each other in pursuing their dreams? (btw, you are still in the middle of your kid-making, in this scenario. So, you give him a pink slip of a divorce just like that?).

Or, another scenario: You hike with a group of people. A guy sweeps you off your feet (and actually saves your life when you mis-step on a cliff). You get to know each other and you can't believe you've found a gem of a guy! Months later, eventually, he tells you that his family has a family business (very profitable and respectable) and he's expected to work there.

See, what I am driving at? What the heck is the difference what the profession is if you found your love?

Sure why not? Morticians needs love too. As long as he doesn't ask me to stop past his job for ANYTHING, we're good!

You often LIVE at your job when you're a mortician. Many funeral homes are also morticians' residences.

There are lots of funeral homes that AREN'T residences, though. If he lives at his job, then nope, couldn't be able to do it. Funeral homes creep me out. I DREAD when someone dies and I have to go to a viewing to show 'support'.
