We've been together 5 years, 2 of which we've been married.
Had our first DC 9 months ago and I have a DS from a previous relationship (8 years) And things just seem to be pissing me off at the minute.
He tries, I know he tries but never seems to live up to my expectations. I'm just wondering if they are too high.
For instance he had his day off this week while I was at work, DD was at childminders and DS was at school, so house to himself. I asked him to do 3 things. 1 to put everyones washing away (roughly 3 loads of it), 2, Stack the dishwasher and 3. lower DD cot base as she is rolling over and jamming herself under her cot toys and waking up.
I get home, dishwasher stacked and finished but not emptied, washing in the right bedrooms but not away and DD cot not even been attempted. He says it was because he had to take the dog to the vet at 2:10.
Now I know he had to do the school run for DS aswell, but he gets home at 9 after dropping him, and didn't have to set off with the dog until half past 1, which gave him more than 4 hours to do this stuff and enjoy the xbox. Yet I come home and do his jobs aswell as sorting the rest of the household out.
I go to friends houses and their husbands are so whipped well trained.
Feeling rubbish in myself too, not attractive, not appreciated. even said I would like a surprise date night out where I don't have to arrange everything, that was 5 months ago and it's not happened.
Where am I going wrong and how do I get an upgrade?
