So why am i left to look after them on my own all the time? OH is currently out of work as am I (dd is only 5mo) but he's decided he needs MORE time to himself so he's out messing about today. As he was Monday and Wednesday. He will get back just as I've got both kids to bed, and expect his tea to be made. No doubt tomorrow he'll get out of bed at whatever time he wants to then bog off outside to play with his new bike.
I've just realised he sounds like he's about 12. He's not he's almost 10 years older than me.
AIBU to be pissed off and think I'm being treated like a mug?

Thanks for your replies everyone. I didn't plan to have children with a childish selfish knobhead he turned into one after them.
He's bogged off out again today on more time for himself. Dd has got a really bad cold so was up most of the night and I can't nap today whilst she is because the selfish tosser has gone out.
I know I need to have a serious talk with him to get him to sort it out or go but I'm just too tired so, for now, will just moan on here.

"He'd expect tea because I have to cook for ds and me so seems pointless to have him eating something different and it costs more. "

So, why can't he make tea for all of you? Doesn't have to be every day, you could take turns. That's what DP and I do.

I don't see what you gain from being with him really. He's not contributing financially, but not taking responsibility for domestic matters either, he's not being a good dad with the children, and it doesn't sound like you like him much. What exactly is the point of him?

what exactly is the point of him
I'm beginning to think there isn't a point of him at all

What's he doing when he's out? Where is he?

This will sound pathetic but he's out messing about with his mum, uncle or brother.

Why doesn't his mum have something to say about this? (I am fig, I have namechanged btw).

Do you need him financially?
