Re relationship with DH

[ivfbabymomma1]

Is it just us, or is anyone finding this lockdown a huge strain on your marriage this time round? Don't get me wrong the first wasn't easy but we really got on, stayed positive, made the most of it etc etc
This time round.. the complete opposite. I'm worried for my marriage to be honest, I'm not sure it will last. We don't get on, we argue all the time, moaning, negativity. I feel really really down today about it all. I'm in bed already in tears due to argument number 1494747 today alone.

YABU - no we're still fine
YANBU - yes we've found it harder

YNBU . during the last lock down we had a baby and a terrible family tragedy. Couple that with furlough and maternity leave and being stuck in the house with no where to go except walks. At least the last lockdown was sunny.

YABU. I’m sorry you’re having a hard time. We’ve been lucky but a lot of people are finding things tough.

We are fine but I think that any niggles you do have will be exaggerated and become more noticeable during the restrictions.

Is there anything else different for you this time around that you can pinpoint as causing the problems?

I am sorry you've had such a hard time.
Intense time together can highlight small cracks.
It can also bring people together.

Thank you for your replies, I can't even pinpoint specific problems or factors. We both still have jobs etc, it's just nasty remarks to each other, a massive drop in effort to be nice. That kind of thing with no specific factor which is really annoying!

I'm so sorry to hear of your family tragedy PP

We are okay with each other but I am definitely more irritable lately! It has been a hard year and I think many people, me included, have just run out of patience. I sometimes feel I must glow with tetchiness

@OptimisticSix I think that's it, people are just fed up now! And I think I glow the same! It's things like we made a list of jobs to do tomorrow around the house and one of his is to clean the oven. And now he keeps moaning saying can't wait to clean the oven tomorrow, nothing else I'd rather be doing etc. Yes well we all feel the bloody same!!!!

Husband wfh. I'm out working 2 days a week so am sitting looking at him the other 5 days a week.
He's driving me fucking CRAZY 🤪
Love the little fucker though.
sigh

🤣🤣 I do love my DH a lot to be fair but it's making it fucking difficult lately!

We are managing better this time as DH is working and not furloughed and DC are at school. Just missing clubs, which is easier to handle as we are all getting outside input. I've worked right through the whole time.
