To be really fed up of DP ?

[Comewhinewithme]

So I am probably going to get flamed for been heartless but I am not I have just simply had enough.

DP is asthmatic a while ago he had a chest infection as soon as he started to feel better he stopped taking the AB's . Surprise surprise a week later he started coughing again .

Last week the asthma nurse gave him steroids as his peak flow was bad last night he was very chesty and got really nasty about it and said some horrible things he also slammed a door into some shelves as he walked past and it broke a vase .

Today he phoned in sick and has been ok all day the nurse rang him as he could not get an appt and has gone mad at him for not finishing his AB's and done him a script for more steroids ,AB's and new inhalers .

He had to go and pick them up as we were going on schoolrun which he had said he wanted us to do together as he is usually at work so misses it ..so he has just screamed at me in front of red to my dsis and two mums because I dared to ask if he was going to meet us after he had picked up script because Gp's is basically over road from school.

Then we get home and he is full of the joys and said sorry for shouting and he was going to nip to chemist . DD asked if she could come he snapped and said no and then started ranting at me again about how everything was always about me and I should understand he is stressed and shouldn't complain if he snarls at me . I actually felt shocked because I had not even really spoke and just sat on the stairs while he ranted at me for 5 minutes .

I understand he feels shit but part of me is annoyed because he will wait until he is one step away from getting admitted to the hospital before getting help and I am now taking all his crap.

I am also 39 weeks pg and according to him I should stop thinking I am special .

Don't want to argue with him just want to look after my dc have this baby and him to feel better .

Posted this twice sorry .

He sounds very childish and self-obsessed. And wholly lacking in emoathy, imagination or basic common-sense. Not very kind either. And WHAT a whinger!!

emoathy?? I mean empathy!

I don't think YABU at all, actually. I think you've shown enormous amounts of sympathy and restraint!

He's being a pig and very selfsih, to boot. Admittedly he can't help having asthma but he CAN help not taking his ABs properly.

And you are special, being pregnant, as all women are.

Gah. Selfish, not selfsih. Am making up whole new words.

It has been a rough couple of weeks but he is been so irrational I am actually considering not having him with me when I am in labour .

I was very impatient to get this baby out a couple of days ago now I think she is better off where she is ATM.

CWWM - YANBU, but when is DP going to get the message that he can't behave like an arse?

I'm asthmatic, and it's MY responsibility to keep it under control so that I can look after DS properly.

And of course you are special, you are looking after 5 kids and a 39 week bump - plus an overgrown child who can't take his medication like an adult. (((((Big hugs)))))

YANBU and your DP sounds very selfish and self - absorbed. My DH is the same and wont take his medication but will go on and on like he is dying!

Sounds a complete idiot if he doesn't know about the risks [and not just to himself] of not completing a course of anti-biotics!

Maybe his "inner child" wants him to be the centre of attention - given your condition! I can't believe you let him talk to you like that - I'd have decked him!
