Attention all SAHMs!!
Does your partner work 12+ shifts? If so, how does he treat you? My question is, do you do everything for your partner? Including picking up his trash whether it's on the floor or furniture? Pick up his clothes from the floor everyday? Make his cereals & drinks then bring it to him? Throw his food away after he's finished eating? I mean I don't mind doing it or things like massages, cooking, etc. Thing is if i ask for a massage he says no. If I ask if he could make me a bowl of cereal when he's in the kitchen, he says no. I take care of our 10 month old baby 24/7 all on my own, he hasn't even changed 1 diaper & when my partner is playing his games, which I don't mind, I understand he wants some free time since he's only awake about an hour before work, if the baby is bothering him I have to stop whatever I'm doing & get the baby. If I'm cooking & the baby is bothering him, I have to stop cooking & get our son. If I'm in the middle of washing dishes, i have to stop & get the baby. I don't feel exhausted but i feel like a slave to him. I've told him before but he doesn't understand. He says I have to do everything because he works 12+ hours to pay everything & I do nothing but stay at home.
