Last year my DH & I had counselling as we kept arguing. We only had 3 sessions but it did help to focus on positives & things have been better..
As my DH was often home at 3pm we started a household rota where he would cook one week & I would cook one wk..this worked well however my DH started a New job which is longer hours so now I cook all meals, but he cooks the occasional time at weekends. I don't have any problem with cooking at all as I love to cook & bake..DH continues to do the weekly shop but its becoming a real issue because he is a creature of habit & buys mostly the same every wk.. the biggest problem is he'll say he's going shopping & doesn’t.. this week it didnt get done i offered & eventually I did it. My shopping is v different to his as I buy offers & i buy stuff to make i dont like jars or packets. My problem is hes constantly moaning about my food that its overcooked, or thats not a Saturday dinner or not wet food with dry the list is exhausting! But he's not fussy! This was partly why we started taking it in turns but now i find we are back to complaining & today he's annoyed about my shopping says i didn't get anything. I got loads for the money. Hes went on a work thing yesterdsy, sent md a txt message then i heard nothing until he arrived home this morming (i knew he was staying over) He didnt seem that pleased to see me & then immediately grumpy about shopping. Im sick of being moaned at unappreciated & spending weekends on my own because he says hes working so.i make plans then doesnt. My kids are both independent now so i feel frustrated. I didnt sign up for spending all this time doing my own thing & being complained at. This was one of the issues we had b4
counselling. feel.like he doesnt care. Hes v difficult to communicate with. Sorry for Rant..
