To expect my wife to return to work?

[Christhebear]

My wife and I have been married for 8 years. Our son was born in January this year. We waited a while before conceiving as we wanted to travel and basically have a good time before we had children.

My wife is an accountant and I am a senior partner in a large company. We both have extremely stressful and demanding jobs. My wife announced to me that she wants to resign as she finds her job extremely stressful and wants to stay at home to look after our son.

This is causing massive arguments because to continue the lifestyle we have we need two incomes. My wife is basically not the person I thought she was. She spends most of the day either shouting at me or crying, never does any cleaning, rarely cooks and basically devotes all her attention to our son. I have found a very good nursery for him but every time I bring it up she melts down and starts crying. She says that she doesn't need things anymore and is quite happy to just be a mother. I am not happy with this as I enjoy the finer things in life which I work bloody hard for and I am entitled to.

I don't know what to do anymore and I am contemplating an affair as our sex life is non existent. She is also breastfeeding which I think is impacting on her mental health as our son seems to be always on the breast.

Any advice from the female aspect would be appreciated.

Thank you.

Um are you for real?

lets hope not

Are you for real? I suspect not, but if so you are really in the wrong place

My first ever

is it half term yet? (hmm)

I'll second the

gets the popcorn...

You are a troll or a prick and I'm to tired to give time to either.

If you are the latter do your wife and son a favour and piss off.

I have some advice; grow the fuck up.

0/10 for originality.

YAB totally U.

Having a baby changes a woman in ways men can't understand.

It sounds like your wife could have pnd.

You are acting like a dick, don't go dipping it elsewhere because if you do and your wife finds out, having to cook your own tea will be the least of your worries.

HTH.

Sorry Chris, I'd be advising your wife to pack your bags, you insensitive twat.
It's possible she has PND, and breastfeeding at 8 months is not something you can put a stop to as it doesn't suit you.
No wonder she doesn't want to have sex with you. Grow up ffs.

If you are genuine, then your wife has my sympathy.

I'm so glad I'm not married to you.

This has to be a joke. If not, you need to reread your post and have a little think about it!

Yet another thread asking for advice from a female perspective...

Shall I start another one? I'll call myself HairyBollocks and say "AIBU to be pissed off that my wife has worn her fingers down to stumps tossing me off and I should look elsewhere for my next wank?"

Because that would ring just as true.

a bit ott dont ya think

I am genuinely asking for advice. This is all new for me as well you know.

Here is some advice......dry your eyes, get used to your new place in the pecking order and get a paper round to supplement your income. Finer things........arse!

gotta be a wind-up.

you sound extremely selfish.

Christhebear, you're mean. and here's a whole pkt of busciuts...
