I worked an eleven hours shift and my husband knew this. I came home about 10pm and my husband was sleeping with no food cooked. Our mutual friend said my husband was there at her house hanging out drinking with her husband. My husband is retired and I was kinda upset because when I got home I thought he should have been awake to ask about my day and he could have cooked something! My friend also said he left her house at 9pm, just an hour before I got home and he was sleeping when I got home like he worked an 11hour shift..I asked him the next morning why he didn't cook anything and he's said there was nothing to cook. But we have a freezer full of fish, he didn't want to eat fish but I Love fish.. And by this time he says he was just at our friends house hanging out. I get that cause I'm not home but I'm just so disappointed cause he just didn't show me no kind of consideration on being awake to ask about my day and at least he could have made me something to eat.. AM I OVER REACTING..

    Yes you are overreacting. Unless it happens all the time and he basically treats you like shit then i'd say just let it go.

    No, you are normal. He's a selfish, lazy bum.

    If it was a one off incident you're probably over reacting but if that's how he always treats you when you're working and he's not then he's being selfish and inconsiderate

    Why do you expect food? Ask him to cook and he'll probably cook. Otherwise it's just a pipe dream that food will be there.

    Me too! 10 - 11 hours, morning shift (so.. 8am - 5-6pm, sometimes 7). It's very rare I come home to freshly made dinner, but I don't mind, because nothing is stopping me from providing my own food. Anyway, yeah, you're overracting.

    Basically, you brought your stress home with you and taking it out on your husband in a passive agreessive way.

    What you can do is utilize your lunch breaks (hopefully, you get a hour lunch, I only get 30 mins) and just order food to be picked up after work or call your husband and ask if he can make something delicious for you to eat when you get home.
