My husband and I have been married for 3 years and together 5. I am a SAHM to our 2 kids. The problems started before we ever had kids but he kept saying he would change. He works night shift and sleeps most of the day. So i take care of our 17 month old son and 2 month old daughter all night and all day really. When he gets up he watces tv or plays a game online with his buddies. That wouldn't be a problem if it wasnt all day. He complains when he doesn't get at least 8 hours of sleep a day. Like yesterday we had to take both kids to the doctor and he only got 6-7 hours and he said "couldn't you have made it later'. He will not help around the house at all. I do dishes, clothes, clean, take out trash, give the kids baths. I do have to give him creadit, he does give our son a bath once a week. He complains that i wont cook but when i do if the kids cry, he will not get them. I have to stop cooking and take care of them while he sets on the couch. Our daughter has colic and acid reflux and cries 4-5 hours straight without stopping and it has been as much as 8 hours. He will not try to help calm her so i can get a break. He says just let her cry. Our other problem is being intimate. We where watching a show about married couples having sex and how often and he said " i couldn't have sex everyday because it would just seem like another f*ck. I was like WHAT? I can count on one hand how many times we have kissed in the past month, besides from a quick peck. He says if you do it all the time it not special. I have just come out and asked him if he is happy and wants to be with me and he always says yes but he doesn't act like it. He always says it just my hormones or that time of month. But how would you feel if you husband acted like this?
