Same here. My mum pretty much begged me to go, so she could have the weekends to herself. I think a lot of single mums just want that time off parenting, really. I just hated my stepmother (who was legitimately not a nice person; I wasn’t just being capricious). My dad left all the parenting to her, and he was never…
Gosh at the very least I’ve feigned interest for every single movie I’ve had to watch 100 times, it’s just what you fucking do to support your kid’s budding personality/life. What an ass.
Aw! Poor old people. I totally get it
My husband is in the military so we don’t have any grandparents or relatives close by to watch our daughter. I stay home with her because daycare was so expensive that it just wasn’t worth it for me to work.
If you crate train the kid well enough, then you’ll only need someone to stop by to let them out once a day while you’re at work for the first few months. After that, they should be ok to be left alone all day without needing to go out!
Quietly talk to an attorney. Quietly open a bank account that he isn’t on and start putting some money aside. Open a credit card that he doesn’t know about. Give yourself some options and good luck. I hope it all turns out okay for you.
Start separating things, getting the utilities in your name, etc. Highlight each month’s cc bill as to what you are not paying for. (Pay per view, video games, etc.) Unless he is a stay at home parent who cooks, cleans and takes care of children, of course. But somehow I am doubting this is the case. Good luck and I…
I was you 12 years ago. I am here to tell you, as Dan Savage was quoted above, DTMFA. Get a good attorney - save yourself and your kids from a life of barely squeaking by because he is NEVER going to change and you are going to be supporting his lazy ass til the day you die if you don’t get out. Will it be tough at…
Sounds like you’re dealing with Man Child/Peter Pan syndrome. He doesn’t want to be the adult in this relationship because he’s got you to take care of that. If he hasn’t grown up after 10 years, three kids, and getting kicked out once, it’s hard to see what else you can do. Like someone else said, it sounds like you…
I really don’t understand husbands who willingly piss wives off and make them feel like shit. Even if you’re not doing anything (which I still don’t believe it’s 100% innocent), you’re clearly upsetting her on purpose and taunting her “Oh look, a twenty something wants to be out ALL NIGHT ‘til 5 AM with me ~catching…
I do and I don’t.
Yikes. What the hell is he doing until 5am?
I saw this as when I was admittedly in a pretty raw emotional place, but still, few things have made me cry so hard:
Interesting choice - I wouldn’t want it on me. I would just give him the dollar and walk away.
Well, him and his brother are stupid enough to think they could kill a gorilla with a blunt object. So, I’m going to guess homeschooling.
That’s because no one who uses Excel has an important job.
I use excel every day. Also...notice what I’m doing right now.
