Okay so since ds was born, dh has:
forgotten 3 wedding anniversaries.
moaned every time I have tried to drag him out, even when we have my parents staying with us.
refused to get involved in most big decisions like where we go on holiday, leaving me to sort out all the details, and then asking a million pesky questions once it's all paid for, then not listening to the answers and asking all over again.
Not cooked a single meal (turning into his father on that score). Again asks a million stupid questions when required to make a simple sandwich.
My latest disappointment was trying to book a romantic weekend away to celebrate 10 years of meeting each other (without ds). He just wasn't interested in looking at any places, winced at the cost of the one I suggested (he really knows how to make a girl feel special!) and then when I challenged him, told me to book it.
All these things I have ignored, especially at the beginning, as he is a fantastic dad and when you get him out/on holiday he does cheer up.
BUT today, he phoned in a shit of a mood and left a message while I was in a business meeting asking did he need to pick ds up from nursery. He always picks him up on a Tuesday because I work from 5-6 when the picking up has to be done. When I phoned him back he said he was really busy and he would try to get there! Er well yes, you can't bloody leave him there matey. I said I'd leave his tea out to save him a job as I was going to the movies. He claimed first he'd heard of it.
And suddenly all the little disappointments that I had ignored came back to me and I got really peed off and typed this.
