Hello thanks for reading. My day get up at 6am take my OH to work come home do the washing clean the kitchen and do jobs around the house cleaning and other bits and bobs. Go shopping come home put the shopping away go out again to pick the other half up, cook tea then clean the kitchen sit down other half asleep on the sofa so I turn the TV over and watch a something I like OH wakes says cant believe I am watching shit on TV while I have sat on my bum all day. Am I wrong to be upset things just seem to be going down hill with constant angry outbursts and verbal abuse.

What was your reason for moving in together? Was it as a kind of trial marriage to see how you get on before you actually get married or was it for financial reasons?

Why are you taking the OH to work?
Are they incapable?

To be honest unless you have children I would struggle to see how you fill your day. Daily cleaning and shopping seems excessive. I don’t go to the shops at all. Didn’t before lockdown as it is a waste of time and energy when it can be done online.

I tidy up as needed and have a thorough clean once a week.

Why is this in ‘divorce/separation’? Is that what you’re planning?

Verbal outbursts / angry shouting = not okay

What are the arguments actually about?

Druid123 · 09/02/2021 21:02

The arguments are that I sit on my bum all day do nothing pay nothing. The OH has a stressful job so I get the back lash. I don't sit around all day I work full time pay my way. I also do things in the house decorate repair things sew things I cant sit still.

Get off you bum and leave !
What are his good points ?

StephenBelafonte · 10/02/2021 08:55

Oh just leave! Don't stay and be put down by him, why would you?

HollowTalk · 10/02/2021 09:01

This is a no brainer. I'd leave and not even bother telling him.

Leave.

You are being taken for granted. Shake things up a bit. Take some time out for yourself.
Let him wake up to an empty house. Might focus his mind.
He sounds like a self absorbed arse to me, but maybe there is something there to work on.
Good luck op x
