This may or may not make sense but I'm yet again really pissed off with DH and TBH wondering what I get out of being married to him.
He doesn't do his fair share of anything. He doesn't do anything round the house unless I ask him, and even then I have to give him a specific task. And if I ask him to do it, but not immediately (I.e. Can you cut the grass this weekend) then he forgets. He thinks that forgetting is a good enough excuse for not doing it, he should make sure he remembers by maybe setting himself a reminder if his memory is that bad. Funny how he never forgets social stuff though...
This morning I blew up because we take turns in taking DS to nursery. On the morning we aren't taking him the agreement is that we get him ready while the other gets sorted, then the person who is taking him can take him downstairs out of the way so that the other can get ready quickly and rush out to work.
Anyway, it's my turn to get him ready so I get up and say to DH that I have to wash my hair so as soon as DS is ready I'm getting in the shower. DH stays im bed until DS is ready and then gets up and so I now have to get sorted with both of them under my feet. DS is only 1.9 and into EVERYTHING. DH does not keep him out of my way as he is now running late and expects me to help him out.
This is a classic example of how selfish he can be. Id already told him I needed more time this morning and got no co-operation. He purposely laid in bed playing on his phone when he could have been getting dressed. He did this knowing It would make me late.
I go downstairs eventually and realise that it was his turn to wash up last night and he hasn't done it. So I call him on it and he says 'I'm going to do it this morning'. Bullshit. He would have left it if I hadn't mentioned it. That's the other thing, if I call him on something that he is supposed to do he says 'I was just about to do it' and it's a blatant lie.
I'm so angry. It's the fact that he Can't accept or admit that he is in the wrong that pisses me off. If I ask him to do something once he doesn't, if I ask h more than once because he hasn't done it I'm nagging. It's fucking disrespectful isn't it? I know my standards are a bit higher than his but if he gave a shit about me then surely he would at least try to meet me half way?
