My SO thinks that the house is supposed to be clean every second of the day. Our house isn't dirty ever, but there…

The fact that you have to.leave and go to your MIL while he lived in the home irritated me. He should have left.

Thanks girl! Leaving seems to be the only option. Its going to be hard but I'll be better off. @beebaby I was in a tiny room with my son at my mother in laws and I was so will of life despite the situation. His negative energy is toxic.

I'm so sorry girl... You don't deserve that. @haleybae

@ingridm89 Sorry you have to deal with that.

@ingridm89 I don't think they could walk a mile in our shoes....

Well I hope things get figured out soon for you and the babies sake.

exactly. I hate when his mom talks only because she was a stay at home mom. Right now I'm on leave, but I'll eventually have to go back to work and STILL take care of my baby. I feel you because I love being a mother. It's the best feeling ever and I'm grateful that my SO is working, but sometimes he's chillin at work. 🙄

@beebaby I agree. Energies are transferable.

@brendamariex3 I hope you can work it out, if not I wish you well on your own with your little ones. It's crazy because we just lived apart for a month and he said he missed me and all this junk. Guess he's not going to change. But I'm not going to put up with it. We've been together for a little over 3 years

That is so true. I agree 100% . And you don't want you baby seeing you hurt because they know

Just wanted to give my all you know? So if it came to that I know I did just that. I'm not a quitter, but when it's affecting my mental health then it's a problem. If I'm not in my right mind I can't continue to be a good mom. My baby comes first. @beebaby

Aw well it sounds like you know what to do. I hope you find the strength. You don't deserve that and neither does your child.

@brendamariex3 Hope your night gets better love!

@brendamariex3 Agreed.

@beebaby

I literally just moved back in. I was staying with his mom for a month and its the same shit. I'm ready to be single. I didn't want to fight. Its gotten to this point before. He has left the baby crying to spite me. I'm obviously not going to let him cry. He knows that. He handles all the finances and he thinks that enough. I don't even want him to do everything, just be a decent human and help me if I'm obviously juggling a million things at once.

I understand that but you avoiding conflict leaves you doing it alone which will always leave you to be walked on. He needs to have some respect

@haleybae Same here.

@brendamariex3 Double standards.... Wow a dad watches his kid for 5 minutes, he's such a great dad. Mom goes to store and child is crying, wow what a horrible mother, why can't she control her kid...? 😩

@beebaby I wanted to avoid conflict 😔

He wouldn't have handed me the baby. I would have just stared at him

@haleybae And your kid is on the move.... Bless you girl! My house will really be a mess then lol. I cooked dinner and everything was clean, then things happen and there's a little bit of mess and it's world war three.

@nani720 I guess we're supposed to have ten arms. I don't think it even occurs to my SO to lend a hand. He's adding to the little bit of mess and then stomping around all angry like a child... Okayyyyy.... 😒

@ingridm89 That's not right! It's not her place at all. This isn't the 1950s. Motherhood has enough challenges and I'm not going to complain about that because I love being a mom. Having a little support would be nice.... Why do they think they're so special? They do nothing or the bare minimum as far as physically taking care of the kid/kids and expect praise. I appreciate his hard work and handling all the finance stuff. I wish I could work, but things are bad now. If he actually had to care for the baby on top of all he does at work, we would self destruct.

Wayyyyy beyond unrealistic :/ my child isn't here yet & my house gets messy from time to time ! I just get caught up doing laundry / cleaning / resting. Sheesh men are annoying

Sorry girl, It's not fair... @haleybae All I ask is that he help a little, or just take the baby so I can do it all. I know he's tired from work, but I'm tired too. I love being with my son all day, I feel blessed to be able to do that. I don't think I deserve to be a punching bag. And saying sorry means nothing is there isn't any change to follow.

That sounds just like my SO and it doesn't help that his mom tries to get involved. She preaches about the house being "clean" and let me tell you it's far from it. Then she preaches of how clean her daughters are. Girl, I've been in their rooms, their curtains are the dirtiest things I've seen. 🙄
