Please, please stop your whining. You are in a new culture now. Your job is to make friends with other wives, and listen to their adventure stories so you learn how the world is run. Your starting point, should you decide to "woman up" for the challenge, is to read Foreign Operative Field Manuals. Here's a link to get you started
Of course not. You don't need him on a leash to execute your own plans either. The two of you have the opportunity here to embark upon a lifestyle of independence, self-expression, and a fairly affluent living standard. Your future is in your own hands. Dogs, kids, soccer, and SUVs are nothing more than sub-standard aspirations that are advertised on television.
Sorry to digress, but here's the thing. Everybody is a little bit lazy. Laziness is healthy to a point. But when you are too lazy to read, that is getting serious. In that case laziness is a symptom not a problem. Your interests maybe dull from a bit of depression, or perhaps you quietly want isolation for your mind to heal. Whatever.
I have never really gotten to that point, but when I get close to it I try to expand my horizons. Because basically I don't know if there is something I don't know that I would be excited to know if I knew it. So listen up Rose, in many ways you are a bit like me; kind of unsinkable. Get your butt in a car and visit DirtyBird in New Jersey. She doesn't know it yet, but she likes you. You don't know it yet, but you'll give her a happy day that will make her glad she met you in person. The prospect of this whole thing is cheering me up because I like both of you.
You know, Halloween is coming up. There's lots of scary people at your local bar. Maybe you better stay home. They're just the kind of weirdos that would single you out for a trick and a treat.

My “job” isn’t to be my husband’s sidekick where he can follow his passions and I can not.

I would be inclined to read this stuff myself if I wasn't so lazy.

Thanks, I do miss seeing The Great Bird here! Lately I have been addicted to watching videos on YouTube of scary stories.
