I'll give the back story here. DH started having headaches months ago. I've suggested a couple of things mainly that he should go to opticians, based on myself and DS both having crappy eye sight and crippling headache if we don't wear our glasses. Cue lots of comments about his eyesight being absolutely fine blah blah and him saying he wasn't a "speccy 4 eyes " like DS and I- but yet still headache. Eventually just booked him into the opticians and he sheepishly rung to say that actually his eye sight was pretty crap and that he needs glasses which must be worn all the time. The optician said this is most likely what's causing the problem and that he'll find the headaches should abate with glasses if not he needs to see GP.
He decided not to get glasses then and there as he thought they were too expensive and he would instead order them on line. 3 weeks later and still no glasses. So I asked when they would arrive. He finally admitted he hadnt actually got some as yet, but would order some soon. This is at the same time as spending every evening after work in bed as his head was so painful. He works on a screen all day, but doesn't get the headaches when away from work.
So 4 months on, he has finally ordered some from China which aren't here yet and he is spending another bloody weekend in bed with the curtains drawn whilst I entertain 3 Dc
The thing is I find myself absolutely furious with him and I can't genuinely decide if I'm being unsympathetic or if there is some base to be pissed off. I know he can't help it but on the other hand he hasn't exactly helped himself. It's just his constant refusal to so anything about it that grinds my gears. Should I be more reasonable about this. I just can't decide
