Where's my time?

Let me start by saying I love my girls to the moon and back. However am I the only one who feels a bit lost?

my partner still has lots of time to himself but although he says go do something I'll watch them there are always so many conditions attached to it. so today the girls have been a bit grisly which I told him about but when he came in from work we went for lunch he then stays out with friends leaving me to feed and put the girls to bed myself. not usually an issue but when he comes home I ask for a bit more support and his response - it's not my fault if you don't have a life!

excuse me if I don't have time between looking after our children , working, keeping the house clean and trying to lose the weight you so subtly remind me I need to lose!

is it just me or do men just not get it? I'd love to go out meet people have fun all of that but right now me time is at the very bottom of my list.

sorry rant over Angry Angry

it's not 'men' - that's insulting.

it's the one you live with and had kids with.

tell him what you want to change. If he refuses to do anything, the usual answer is LTB but it isn't that simple. Certainly stop doing anything for him, you don't need three kids.

if you've got twins (or more), or even one, there is very little me time for quite a while. That's the deal with kids and he needs to realise it.

good luck.

Agree with special. It's not 'men', it's the man in your life.

My DH would'nt behave like that. Sadly you're with a selfish twat. Remind him they're his children too and tell him he needs to help you more.
