What do you think is an appropriate length of time to have a 'break' from each other.
We have been together 13 years and married 12.
But at the minute I am soooooo bloody bored and fed up, we don't talk etc and if we do go out together we end up in different pubs (some of you may remember the advice that you gave me the other night)
He does hardly anything in the house except for the laundry and cooking, this morning he got up, sat on the computer for an hour then started ranting and raving when the kids got up and wanted a drink etc with their breakfast, and also when the youngest dc said they didn't know exactly where their uniform was (after I spoke to her calmy etc about it she went and found it no problem)
He is on 6 days off and I asked him to do a few little jobs, all in all, they would take 1/2 max and he has done none and I will probably end up doing them myself.
Mornings are a joint effort in getting them ready for school etc, but, he won't help get things ready the night before to stop running around in the morning.
His shifts are due to change soon for a while and he is going to be so tired, grumpy and plain nasty sometimes and me and the dc will be walking on eggshells, some or most of the time he is off, and, I know for a fact he will be spending his days off doing nothing but his hobby.
