I’m a selfish husband

Selfishhusband7118 · 25/01/2018 22:22

I have let down my wife numerous times now by only thinking of myself and it’s come to head that she wants nothing to do with me and a divorce. I truly love my wife but do not realise how selfish I am being towards her. She does a lot for me and I should be doing the same back. How can I win my wife back?

I guess the op didn't get the reception he was hoping for! Grin

This place has a way if being unsupportive at times. Support and advice doesn't have to be insultive and a personal attack. ... hence the deletion of a couple of posts.

Good riddance, I say

Some folk might have time for self pitying men who treat women like shit.

I don't think a female dominated support website is the place for it, personally. There are lots more spaces you could demonstrate your manpleasing if you so wish.

Actions speak louder than words and words are cheap, so many men who don’t do the hard graft

If you are naturally selfish then you should be with someone selfish.
Likewise generous people who to lots for others should be with likeminded people.
So if you are the type of person to get out of bed on the mot i h and make coffee for everyone e then feed the cat, this is what you want in return.
So on your case it maybe best to separate and go your separate ways.

It’s not ‘man-pleasing’ to want to support someone Anyfucker.

Posters are quite capable of calling someone out if their behaviour towards their partner is unacceptable, they don’t need you patrolling the boards discouraging people from posting or responding.

Mumsnet is for everyone.
