Restentful of my husband

Been married 3 years, together 6. Have two kids under two. I'm a SAHM. He has never lost his bachelor lifestyle mentality. Constantly out with friends and coming home late without any notice. He's going on a "guys vacation" to Mexico tomorrow for 6 days. He came home a little early from work today and I got so excited thinking that he came home to spend a little extra time with me and the kids. Nope. He came home to get money for our rent and to give me a list of things I need to do for him for his vacation prep and made it known that he wanted it done before he came back home. He then got a text message, ran out the door, yelled at our one year old for trying to follow him and told me he would be "home later that usual". Like seriously? He gets off work at 5 and came home at 730 yesterday with NO PHONECALL and said he was having a beer with his friends at work. I was so worried since he wasn't answering his phone and when he came home and realized I was worried he told me I was crazy. I just feel drained. It feels like he doesn't care and takes me completely for granted. I've talked to him about how I feel a million times and he always says his life isn't going to change just because he has kids. When I point out how my friends husbands hardly ever go out with friends anymore because of spending time with their families, he just says that they must live really sad lives😒 What would you do?

I would laugh at his list and do none of it. I would also sit down with him after this trip and have a serious discussion. The bachelor lifestyle ends when you're married. Make sure you're not enabling his behavior.

Id be gone before he got back from his trip. No way in hell id want to deal with a guy like that and no way in hell i could stand it, id do something crazy. Goodluck with being with some one so careless. You're living a "sad life" while he isnt. Leave

I'd tell him no, hes not going out. He can stay home and take care of your kids and YOU can go out for once. Stand up for yourself and push back!!

I'd be asking if he's cheating and if not to cut the crap out before I leave and he realizes what it's like to be single again with no kids.

Not only would the list be lit on fire in front of his face, but I would without a doubt tell him that when he came back all his shit would be sold or on the lawn and the locks would be changed. You created the monster by catering to him, now it's time to put your foot down. Hard. On his ball sack.

This sounds like a conversation needs to happen between you and your husband because if you have this conversation and he had no real idea what toll it was taking on you he can change but if he refused to have the conversation or stand by his lifestyle without seeing any issues than something needs to happen. Be it counseling, separation, creating a stronger sense of communication, I don't know. I really do hope it works out for you 💙
