Am I really a stick in the mud?

Question

My husband keeps calling me a stick in the mud. I can have fun and all but he keeps calling me that bc I don't have many hobbies. I like painting, drawing and working on puzzles. I also like playing the PlayStation 4 when I have a chance. It is hard for me to do anything because we have 2 children and I always put them before myself. So now he is trying to figure out what to do for Christmas and he keeps telling me if I wasn't such a stick in the mud this wouldn't be hard. It's starting to really hurt my feelings. What else can I do so I'm not "a stick in the mud"?

Answer

Its alright for men they can have hobbies and go off on their own time we have to fit hobbies round kids house and working so reading or painting or puzzles is about all we have time for and sometimes even those are difficult to fit in.

Answer

My husband calls me no-fun Courtney and I hate it so much. He has heaps of hobbies and stuff to do but I'm a homebody and just like chilling out watching movies. Or he'll call me that if I don't find him funny when he thinks he's being hysterical. They are knobs sometimes.

Answer

talk to him about how it makes you feel when he calls you that. Explain to him the way you did right now how you put your children before your needs and make him understand that it isn't that you don't enjoy the same things he does but that you just have a different outlook on it because of
your kids.

Answer

I think he needs to get off your back. Maybe try doing something together? Him calling you that isn't gonna make you want to have hobbies!! It'll just make you want to hide in a shell. Meanie.
