How often do you spend an evening listening to your H moan?

[loves2walk]

An alternative thread to the 'how often do you have sex' one - I am having a totally frustrating week with H coming home each night moaning about work.

I get fed up with my work, but by the time I've done my bit for the day, then got the kids through tea/bath/bedtime routine and emerge downstairs at 8/9ish I just want to switch off and enjoy some fun, light conversation. NOT moaning about someone elses day and 'oh that wouldn't work' to every helpful suggestion I make - feel like banging my head against a brick wall!

DH never ever moans. Now me on the other hand...

Oh get it now - I should spend my evenings on MN - that's where I'll get my light relief!

loves2walk.must admit its me the moaner in our combo.however, things must change because I am thinking life is too short for me to moan and drag others down.

never!! i binned him 5 years ago!

Well, we both work and both have friends who work in our relevant spheres who understand, and to whom we can moan on phone/email/FB! I think we'd drive each other insane otherwise.

ILoveTIFFANY .... snap... I binned mine 2 years ago... I nearly used to loose the will to live when he walked in the door lol

I suppose I should be more supportive, I'm feeling guilty now but was just a bit dragged down with it. Just tried starting a holiday conversation to change tack but that didn't last long as money worries started being voiced...so maybe is one of those days for H where all is wrong. You just have to o to bed on those days and hope for better the next.
