Is it normal that my husband thinks me sitting is annoying?

I work about 50-60 hours a week. When I come home my husband is annoyed because I want to sit or lay down for a bit. He gets annoyed if dinner isn't made as quickly as he'd like (it may take an hour or two to even get the energy to get up). He is a student and after he leaves school he picks up my two kids(5 and 2) and cares for them till i get home.

    Why is it your job to make dinner? If he's been at home with the kids, then he can get something together. It seems like common sense that the person who's out of the house for 50 or 60 hours a week does less of the housework/cooking/cleaning.

    School takes some time and energy too, and so does raising kids, but if he's already home, he can put some ground beef and tomato sauce in a pan and make some damned spaghetti.

    You need to both work together. He can't take advantage of you, and to can't take advantage of him. It's even now a days, which is fair!

    He's a student, huh. I hope you're not paying his tuition for him to disrespect you like that. He should have dinner waiting on the table when you get home!

  • He could be exhausted--just as exhausted as you are.

    If it's not acceptable for men to come home from work and sit on their duff, then it's not acceptable for a woman to do the same. It doesn't necessarily mean you must cook dinner, but maybe you could offer to help with the kids while he made dinner.

    Ummm yah it sounds like your husband either doesn't know what it's like to work that much, or he just wants to stick to old fashion roles which in this case doesn't make sense because you are the one workin your butt off! He is just being selfish and seems like he expects too much from you

    What a cock. Jeez, if he is a student that is capable of taking care of your kids, he should be capable to 1. Know how tiring and stressful your situation is and 2. Be competent enough to make his damn dinner.

    I hate men like this I hate woman that put up with this is that normal? Lol but answering your question he needs to step up to the plate a bit and realize that he has a strong working woman that should be cared for. I'm not saying he should do all the work marriage is 50/50 he seems like a great dad if he is with he's kids all day just let him know how u feel and see how you guys can find a medium :) good luck

    First, why did you allow yourself to get knocked up by some loser who hasn't even finished school? The next time the lazy asshole gets annoyed because you're sitting down, tell him to fuck off! If you were smart, you'd dump his sorry ass now instead of waiting until he finishes school and dumps you!
