Boring Husband.

My husband is boring and likes to stay home all the time.

He doesn't take me out on dates.

We have a 18month old son and we work a lot.

So book a babysitter, a restaurant and take him on a date :)

Take yourself and a friend on a date!

Built in childcare and you can use that time to nurture yourself.

What made you decide to have a child with someone who you don't have much in common with or is this only recently he wants to stay at home?

What does he say when you suggest you go out just the two of you?

This. When was the last time you took him on a date?

Hey babe,

I'm a proud house-cat.

OP, strong 'entitled princess' vibes.

Is your 18 month old sleeping through yet?

Do you have easy access to child care?

Have you arranged and taken him on a date? Why is it down to him? Can't you take it in turns?

LittleStringOfFairyLights · 26/11/2023 17:06

And? Is there an actual point to what you have written?
Assuming you haven't organised a babysitter and taken him out on a date perhaps he thinks you are happy to stay at home.

Try a cooking thing you can do at home.
cookaway is good. My husband is quite boring too. we do sports activities together but that’s it really

Cas112 · 26/11/2023 18:31

Ok so you ask to take him out and then maybe have a conversation about it as well

brrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr · 26/11/2023 18:34

He’s probably exhausted.
