My SO has a decent job (better than mine) but has it set up to where he can miss up to 4 days per week for ‘medical’ reasons. Recently he has been working 1 day a week. He still gets a regular check. Is it wrong of me to be mad about that? I’m almost 6 months and working 5 days a week with 3 of the days being doubles.

What are his “medical issues” ?

As a toddler he got into an accident and had a kidney and his spleen removed so idk what effects that has but sometimes he gets back pain and is nauseous. That’s all. (Funny that that’s what happens when pregnant and most of us still work, sometimes even on our feet) so he takes full advantage and just doesn’t go to work whenever he doesn’t want to, which is everyday like any working adult.

does he still get paid?

yes a regular check like he doesn’t miss work

If he really wasn’t feeling well then I wouldn’t be mad... but I would expect him to do a lot more around the house for me. It he’s just being lazy then I’d probably just lose respect for him as a person bc I value hard work as a characteristic in a partner.

@taylor.bush29, I agree with this

Why does it upset you? Are you jealous? Do you feel he's lazy? Like he's not pulling his weight?
I think he's wrong to milk it if he's not really ill but you need to figure out why it bothers you and then talk to him.

I am jealous! I’m almost 6 months pregnant and im working more than him! We live separately with our moms and he gets mad when I don’t want to hang because I’m too tired or frustrated from working while he gets to sit and game all day. I’ve told him this and he just laughs. It really bugs me he’s definitely milking it and sees nothing wrong with that

You should express this to him. Tell him how it makes you feel.

@divinely_favored, I have told him I’m jealous and if I took it further and told him it really bugs me he would just get annoyed and mad
