Right, so I work live in for 1 week on 1 week off live in ( adult care centre). Recently covered annual leave for a colleague so out of 28 days I'm away for 21
DH is always telling me how much he misses me , first night home of 6 ( travel eats into my time off) & he goes out to watch the footy, then stays out for another hour " for a nice bit of a chat with my mate". So I am sat home on my own. Oh, but I got to cook & walk the dog ( yay me ).
DH goes out when I'm away , I ve no issue at all with this but I actually feel really sad that he has done this.

[quote Mustbethemansfault]@Washingtofold I don't have any issue, I don't like hypocrisy and it's filled go the rafters with it in here, just like to give some of them a reality check, I have an opinion on most things I see on here, very rarely something will irk me enough to post, but when it does, it'll be because of hypocrisy.[/quote]
Interesting because you don’t seem to see the hypocrisy in your own attitude which so often implies men get a raw deal . When you name here stinks of that attitude . Sorry but you sound like one of the men on those mgtow forums

It gets so boring hearing the ‘ what about the poor menz ‘ comments here by some ( gotta wonder what century they are living in )
sure double standard exist when it comes to gender and who gives emotional support to who AND they are almost invariably favour men

So agree, it’s boring as hell, and also makes me cringe. Do these posters think that on male centric forms there are men jumping into threads to post about ‘if this was the other way around...poor women’?

But it would be an improvement if they did - broadening the viewpoint, being less self-centred and looking at more angles.

It would indeed, but currently they don’t, and women already are conditioned to put themselves last, have empathy, be kind etc, so they really don’t need to do even more of it, when men aren’t.

Ditch him, he sounds like a cocklodger, what age did he retire?

If no kids at home, then you don’t need to subsidise his pub time etc
