DH is being shitty lately. I've got a flu, runny nose and bad headache for the past few days. Husband is completely ignoring me. AIBU to expect care when I can barely get up. He hasn't spoken to me at all for 2 whole days and today suddenly asks why I'm throwing a strop at him

@Frazzledd there's not necessarily a level but if she's just carrying on without saying "I'm ill - I'm going to bed" is he supposed to read her mind?

He knows you're ill but have you actually said I'm too ill to care for ds I'm off to bed?

Lazy bastard. I'd have ripped him a new one. You really need to go nuclear over this

Do fuck all for him forever more. Tell your dc to see daddy. He’s being a total arsehole.

She shouldn’t have to, it’s his child too. He has eyes and knows she’s ill. A decent partner would step up regardless.

How can you go 2 days without saying a word to each other?

It honestly baffles me how alot of couples on MN can't have basic conversations with the person they have married.

He doesn't need to be told your sick, he can SEE your sick. He's ignoring you because he doesn't want to step up and look after HIS child for afew days.

You need to have a serious conversation with him. Spell it out clearly. I'm sick, you need to look after DC.

People treat you how you ALLOW them to treat you. If you don't stand up to your husband now its going to cause years of resentment. Hand him HIS child and go to bed.

you have been expecting it to be obvious, I'm afraid lots of men miss what seems obvious to their partners Nope I don't buy that at all. Even half decent men notice their partner is bloody ill. Honestly some people will make anything and everything the fault/responsibility of a woman.

How incredibly selfish. You shouldn’t have to tell your DH you’re ill and can he help out with his own child. He should be helping you ill or not these men that think when they aren’t at work they should be able to put their feet up and do f all really wind me up!
