My husband is verbally abusive to me..?
My husband is verbally abusive to me and it’s really getting to me more now that I am approaching my third trimester. I cry and feel so down and it completely ruins my weekends off.
We both work during the week so we often just both get in from work, eat and shower then both go bed as were both tired. So he’s treats me so differently and is really nice to me.
At the weekends when we’re both off work it is the only time we have to get the house sorted for our baby. He just wants to relax and do everything in his own time. We have new furniture for our nursery and he gets verbally abuse when I ask him to please make a start on it and he swears and shouts at me.
If I could make it all myself I would and if I had someone to help I would get the help. Our living room is full of baby equipment that I need help with too but he just says it will get done but it doesn’t.
His parents are quite religious but he isn’t and if they knew how he was treating me they would be very unhappy and ashamed of his behaviour, but I can’t tell them as I know it will make things worse!
It’s like he’s so very happy and really wants our baby and loves that he’s going to be a dad but he is lazy and unhelpful when it comes to getting things done and I am not nagging him. I just want to get things organised so we least have the last month to both relax together and everything is done for whenever baby arrives.
I’m just asking him for some help and he just becomes so verbally abusive to me. I have told him how I feel about it and after his verbal abusive and he just sits downstairs eats and watches movies and I just get on with housework in peace but I am upset. He eventually apologises and says he will get everything done soon. Each weekend is passing and still nothing is done apart from the things I can do.
Am I in the wrong? Please anyone give me some advice thank you!
