To not be surprised that divorce rates are so high when I see how some friends treat their husbands??

[PisforPeter]

Just having huge arguments over petty issues, being anal about the childrens routines, making DH sleep in spare room for duration of oregnancy & first 8 months of baby's life too.
Do folk need to chill out a bit or am I being too harsh??
I just find a team approach works better for me??

[IrianofWay]

It was meant to be a joke. Still

[PisforPeter]

It's not dilley about routines, I think you are reading too much into that aspect.

[PisforPeter]

only
I've always had a good but flexible routine with my 3 DC as best I can.

Steak and blow job day? Don't give people ideas! New Tory policy? Sounds just like Boris Johnson's sort of thing (vomits)

Seriously though, some people can be assholes. That's people - can be male or female. I do think quite a few people go into marriage with ridiculously unrealistic expectations, thinking life will be a beautiful fairytale and their partner will be able to read their mind and all will be well. And this is not helped one bit by the wedding industry.

And don't get me started on people who become parents without a single tiny clue which end of a baby is which or how to even be around a child and expect it all to work out like a Disney film...

[ThatBloodyWoman]

I tend to treat as well as I'm treated, tbh.

Makes a good partnership.

DH sleep in spare room for duration of oregnancy & first 8 months of baby's life too.

I think that that is a recipe for disaster.
I think if that habit is started, it makes for all sorts of problems.

Farleys - that was an example but I know exactly the kind of person the op is referring to by this - those where you can be having fun somewhere, but all is ruined cos pfb must be home in their own room by 7pm ...why, why, why???

[Weathergames]

Yes because personally I loved every minute of my messy divorce

[Ledkr]

Yes I agree op.naughty wives having opinions or wanting an easier life bed to themselves no wonder so many menz leave those silly ladies!!

[CaptChaos]

I completely agree.

Women shouldn't have opinions.

Or think.

Or want what's best for their children.

Unless they dovetail with their DHs wishes.

It really IS all about the menz.

[7Days]

why why why

because who wants to be up with a screeching child all night?

who who who

if thats the way your child is, i think youll find the parent who gets landed with night wakenings is the one who is anal about bedtimes, and co sleeping and all those other heinous crimes.

how odd that it turns out its women ruining marriages because the selfish bitches need to sleep at night

honestly

[Thumbwitch]

Irian - if it's any consolation, I knew it was a joke. :)

[OfaFrenchMind]

Aaaaannnnnnnddddddd...... you missed the point.

[QisforQcumber]

Divorce rates would be lower if men married blow up dolls then.
Terribly wasteful when popped though, all that plastic in landfill.
On the bright side, puncture repair kit providers would see a surge in profits.

[arethereanyleftatall]

'The way your child is' caused by inflexible obsessive parenting; not always but sometimes.

[AnyFucker]

Goady person

[ICanSeeTheSun]

Why why why.

Try because DS is autistic, he needs his fixed routine just like a type 1 diabetic needs insulin.

[7Days]

thats a bit of a non statement arethere you cant possibly know that

[PisforPeter]

That is totally understandable sun

[PisforPeter]

A lot of truth in that arethere

[7Days]

bullshit its just a snidey way of saying its all yoir own fault without specifying who exactly is being blamed.

[JohnFarleysRuskin]

Me and dh both like the kids in bed early. Not sure I'm getting it as a reason masses of men divorce women. Ho hum.

Irian I got the joke but I was too busy trying to think of a joke about entry (ooh er missus) to reply.

[PisforPeter]

[liz5029]

My husband has slept in a different bed for the last 3 years because I struggle with insomnia and he kicks a lot in his sleep. Doesnt mean we're about to get divorced. He even lets me have my own opinions, I wonder if he knows he's doing it all wrong

[PisforPeter]

Farley
We all like them in bed early but it's not the end of the world if they are not in bed by 7. I like a nice walk on a summer evening together especially if it's not a school
night..
