Telling my partner I lost my job, recruiter here

    My spouse does not know yet that I was let go as a recruiter. I am in Boston, in case local advice matters. Bills are coming up and I cannot keep this quiet.

    Shame is common after a layoff even when it is not your fault. Saying it out loud to one person first helped me.
