I snapped
I have a 7 month old who had croup for 4 weeks and cut 5 teeth. I have a husband that works 60+ hours and doesn't lift a finger. I am sleep deprived and fed up.
He has a snow blower that is 35 years old and all his spare time he's fixing it. I am fed up with it. I am exhausted he doesn't change diapers or feed or get up at all with baby.
He and his brother were working on the snowblower. They came inside to say it needs a new axle now. After my brother in law left I snapped. My husband asked where I was because baby was crying in the living room and his brother thought I just took a nap. Um no I was constipated and sick. Doing all parenting on my own like always. I was on the toilet and couldn't get up. Baby was fine.
I snapped. I do 90 percent of everything for everyone. I don't get sick days or a nap or a fucking help with anything. Shot I haven't even brushed my teeth today and I have served homemade meals from scratch and had a spotless house.
Husband responded saying just blow him....I snapped back and said that's why he isn't getting any its because I am so fucking fed up with catering to his ass all the time. I can't even take a shit.
He took off
I am so fed up. I get maybe 3 hours of sleep broken up all night long. On weekends I want us to be a team and he's got his own agenda all the time. I told him I'll buy him a new snowblower with my inheritance money or just like every other fucking thing I'll just add shoveling to my to do list. I'm already doing it every other snowfall as it is. Even though I just had fucking spine surgery and am not supposed to be doing shit.
I am burnt out and I want to know who taught my husband to be so fucking selfish all the time.
***reponse: hey I absolutely agree he works hard for us. I cater to his everything. He doesn't do anything ever besides work. That is my complaint. We are not a team. I do not feel like we are working together. I am doing it on my own. He want's to complain all the time he isn't getting satisfied enough sexually. Shit I am not emotionally getting satisfied enough either. I am parenting on my own and taking care of a grown man as well. That isn't romantic and it's how it is supposed to be. What is fucking romantic is a couple that doesn't keep score because they are so busy making their spouse happy. I cannot carry our family on my own.
****fucking snowblower its 35 years old and it's a money pit. We should just go buy a new or even used one. We have the money. He is so fucking cheap and it's an excuse to then not have to do anything else because he has to always fix the snowblower. It needs to go to the dump.
****resentment...that's what has been built up for months. I am a fucking good mom and a fucking good wife. A deserve a husband that can stop being selfish. He plays sports and helps his parents and doesn't lift a finger for our child or me. I created a perfect environment for him to do as he wishes. I have allowed it to always be that I carry our family. It has caused resentment.
