'eat to live' than 'live to eat', my DH esp, but society in general too?

AIBU to be really hacked off trying to arrange restaurant-standard meals every night just for him really when a lot of time I could just throw out a bit of pasta, tuna and raw veg for me and the kids which in their view, is as good as it gets ?

AIBU to wish he'd just get a dinner at lunchtime sometimes (but no, cos he'd still want a full dinner at home Shock )

AIBU to like, for that reason and that alone, when he's away cos I don't have to think about that shizzle, and to sometimes think this is becoming a major incompatibility between us if I want him to be away more often because of it?

AIBU to need to get a grip? Can anyone sympathise?

I think as well as planning and dealing with the practicalities of it, you could do some thinking about why it annoys you. Mostly, in family life, we know that everyone is different and we just rub along. This actually seems to really annoy you. Thinking about why (your mother?) might help it be less of a chore.
