I’m feeling increasingly resentful of the amount of time my DH is spending out of the house but I’m not sure if it’s him being selfish or me being lazy and/or a bit depressed.
In the last two weeks he’s been here for 3 bedtimes. He’s worked 2 late shifts, but the rest of the time he’s doing various hobbies. He’s taken them to school 3 mornings.
The kids aren’t babies anymore (youngest 4, not at school) but they are generally hard work and they are definitely worse when I’m dealing with them on my own every night. I work PT.
I’m knackered, really fed up and I feel like a doormat. I’ve been feeling really down and I’m not being the mum I want to be but everything feels like too much work. He knows this and hasn’t changed his plans at all.
Tonight he’s got home on time but gone out 15 mins later to go for a bike ride until 9.15. He’s announced after coming home that he’s actually working late again tomorrow, which means home after 9. We’re out on Saturday so he won’t be doing bedtime then either. He can’t understand why I’m grumpy. AIBU??
