So around 2 weeks ago we all developed a chest infection... me my husband and kids. So my kids and husband have recovered but I then developed two sinus infections.. one on my right side and now I can feel one on my left and I have a temp and face pain.. headache and feel really unwell. My husband was due to go to a house party tonight and I've asked him to stay at home but he's refused saying I'm being awkward. My ears are red raw all around so proof I'm not making it up. He was on a night shift last. So o had to muddle through with the kids being ill but tonight I was tot rest in bed not having to worry about the kids and a baby but he refuses to stay home and help. To make it worse he's taking his cousin because he 'feels sorry for him' because he's just come to this country ( from an EU country) to work and start a new life and his cousin feels 'lonely' but her he's not concerned enough for me. I want him home because I'm scared of any complications of my illness coz I've been ill so much in a short space of time and so I don't want to be left alone with the kids. Am I being unreasonable? It seems like I alway come last and I'm constantly told I have to stay home look after the kids when he does his things.
And I never even leave the house alone without the kids!

He sounds a bit immature to be honest.

I wouldn't need to ask in this situation. When you have small children, surely he should be helping when you are not well.

My husband came home from work last week as I was unwell and he wanted to look after baby for me. Not in a million years would he go out socially if I needed him. It's really important that you don't minimise this and you realise his actions were as bad as they were.

I am so sorry that you are married to such a selfish cunt. Let him go, change the locks and tell him to fuck off is what I would do- I hope the stupid party is worth it!
