I think that was when they decided they have to move out of the city they lived in because there was machlokes going on (not really sure), and because of that move he will have to leave kollel.

As a side not, I wasn't really clear of the connection between leaving town and leaving kollel and why she blames herself later on in the story, since it didn't say anything about her needing more money and nothing about him wanting to stop learning. More like there was no kollel in the new place or something like that.

There was some sort of major hashakfic difference and they were told they should not affiliate with the community any more. What ever it was, it was so bad that they were told that its better to leave the system completely then keep living there. Since there there no other Kolleim with openings at the time the husband took a job in a store.

I think its just her feelings about the change in their life. Feelings are not usually rational that is what is nice about it. If you read this site long enough you see a lot of women struggle with the same issues.
