Please tell me I’m not the only one like this poor guy can do no right by me lately.

So I asked him earlier in the week if he could help more with the evening routine. I’m often stuck doing everything from making dinner to cleaning up to getting our other kids bathed and in bed. We both work FT but he is about 12 years older than me and struggles with anxiety and depression so I give him a break a lot due to that. So anyway he agreed to help more and has actually been doing it.

But even that wasn’t enough even though he started helping more I then got mad at him for not texting me all day or asking how my prenatal appt went or showing me any kind of affection.

I offered to take his FMLA paperwork to my dr to get filled out for him and he agreed but then on his day off took the paperwork himself, the same day I had my appt so I’m like what you don’t trust me to do it??

I got him a Kindle for Valentines Day then today he starts texting me that he likes the feel of books so now I’m like great this is your way of saying you don’t like the gift I got you 😭.

At dinner my 16 year old had put make up on my 9 year old and he commented it was too much make up and I told him they were just playing and I think it’s fine for a 9 year old to play with make up every now and then and he said (right in front of my 9 year old) “well she’s your daughter, not mine.” She’s his step-daughter and I know he meant that it’s my rules but it’s just the way he said it.

Part of me is like “no I have legit reasons to be upset” but then the other part of me is like “if I wasn’t pregnant I probably wouldn’t give two shits about half of this stuff.” Like dude just breathe in my direction wrong and it makes me feel like a raging bitch. 😩
