So I’ve been with my bf for almost 8 years. I met him when I was 22. He is my first serious relationship. I mean I had the same bf throughout high school but I never lived with him. Well my current bf now is the father to my child and he has two other kids who are with us 90% of the time.

I knew getting into this relationship with would come with a lot of responsibility with him being a single dad, but now I feel like it’s getting a little out of had.

My bf does take care of all my financial responsibilities as far as making sure my necessities are taken care of. Although I do work and give him more than half of my check every week for bills. I really don’t mind that at all bc he takes care of thing a so I don’t have to worry about them.

Like I said I do work. I also come home cook and try to keep the house clean. With three kids it’s kind of hard while I’m at work so the house isn’t spotless unless it’s my day off.

He works a lot so I don’t expect him to do anything around the house. This is where my problem comes in. I never ask him for anything. Like for help around the house or not even to give me a glass of water. Him on the other hand will wake me up and tell me to go make him coffee. Like I don’t mind doing anything for him at all o but I hate how he does it in a demanding eat. He won’t even say like hi babe good morning can you make me coffee? He’s just like are you going to make me coffee? Not only that he wants me to make his employees breakfast? Like ok I feel like that is not responsibility.

With him being busy, I have not spent any time with him. He comes home tired which I totally understand bc he was basically working three weeks straight with no days off. However, he did take me and the kids to get ice cream the other day and he was on the phone the whole time talking to his brother and one of his friends (who have been working with him during those weeks) I’m like geez you’ve been seeing them every day and he can’t even pay attention to me. When I tell him he gets so mad and turns it into a fight.

Am I in the wrong for wanting a little more respect and feel appreciated?
