How long would you be mad after apology
My husband has apologized we've talked and he's currently doing everything times a hundred around our home as redemption. I'm still upset and mad though as it's all fresh to me. So question how long would you be mad for after an apology?
We have three kids all with rsv for a week. As a stay at home mom I haven't asked him for help even though with a sick two month old I haven't slept. Husband sleeps in the guest room to get sleep. Our kids have been in the ER and urgent care. By Friday they were not improving and we're getting worse. I'm now sick. I took all the kids to urgent care and it was five hours of being there. RSV pneumonia and ear infections all of them. The doctor was trying to determine if I needed to drive our infant to a larger specialist hospital for the baby or if I needed to take him via ambulance.
I called my husband who was done with his work week of working 50 hours but was at a golf shmooshing after work function. I get it was a good social event however I had been at the clinic for five hours with our children am sick myself and the doctors are trying to determine if I need to take my baby via ambulance to a larger hospital. My husband asked me if he could get two more hours. I've not been disappointed in him as a father ever but in that moment I couldn't believe he was asking me this. It was a snowstorm and I didn't want to bring the older children sick to other hospital they needed to be in bed. They needed their prescriptions picked up and dinner. I needed to get the baby to the hospital which was an hour away as fast as possible. I told him point blank don't make me beg.
Husband came home immediately to take the other kids. I didn't come home with the baby till this morning around 4Am I had been awake for 28 hours total.
We've talked and he's apologized. He admits he isn't used to me asking for help and didn't realize how serious it was. My point is he shouldn't be off playing golf when his wife is sick juggling three kids in urgent care by herself. When I do call for help he shouldn't push back. This is an ongoing issue is I'm made to feel bad for needing help so I don't ask and when I do it's so past the point of being dire.
How long would you take to forgive your husband for golfing when you are sick with that sick of kids in an emergency situation? I just don't think sorry and doing some laundry is cutting it this time.
