I'm a SAHM to a 2 year old. DP works full time. He normally gets home at 5pm every day but the last three days has got home at 3pm. On all these days he has come in, had a drink and a 10 minute sit down and then gone to work on one of his cars until about 6.30/7pm.
Today we booked a table at a restaurant for 7pm. At 5.30 DP was still out working on his car, I had to wash my hair, have a bath etc and would have liked him to watch DD but got on with getting ready while looking after her.
DP comes in just after 6 and I ask him if he would get DD ready (nappy change etc just a 5 min job) and he asked why couldn't I do it. I replied I had been looking after her all day and wanted 5 mins to finish getting ready. He replied with ''oh well''.
We left to go to dinner and I got a bit upset on the way. DP then started to guilt trip me by saying he works all day to support us (which is true) and that he is annoyed with me moaning about him working on his cars (on average he probably spends about 10 hours a week working on them).
AIBU to expect him to help more? part of me thinks he does work hard so deserves a bit of hobby time.
