Ive been with my partner almost 11 years and we have 2 dc together. We are together because were just going with the flow and its 'routine'. He brings nothing to the relationship for me and i feel like i do so much that he doesn't appreciate. I do all the school runs (when im not working part time then he does it the 2 days im working) i do all the parents evening, all the appointments, school plays, put kids to bed, do homework, take the kids out on my own 95% of the time, sort all the bills, do 99% of cooking/dishes/laudrey/cleaning. Im basically a single Mum. And he says i do alot for the kids but i do f all for him. Which technically i don't because im doing everything else. If i say i do your washing/cooking/cleaning he'll say but your doing it anyway so whats one extra person. Sorry, i went off track a little bit. My aibu is... aibu to ask why are you in a relationship? What makes you stay? My partner says this is a normal relationship and that im just wanting something thats not real. But i feel there should be more that just this. Its my first relationship so got nothing to compare it to.
