Spouse asks you to come home from later

I can find things to do after work every day, including work longer. But I come home because I love and miss my children. And, personally, my spouse, but if I got this request that might fade.

That’s not the point.

What is the point? You think she should stop whatever she is doing and serve her man dinner as soon as he walks in the door?

Your love for your children would fade if your spouse took ONE HOUR to do something other than attend to you?

Reading is fundamental. Try again.

I am reading. You come home because you love your wife and children. However, if your spouse asked you to entertain yourself for ONE evening after work because she was busy and wasn’t going to be able to attend to your needs, quiet children, get you something to eat, all of the things OP says she is doing, then you feel that your love might fade.

There was no welcome home from the kids when I walked through the door...
And no dinner out on the table like there has been before.
It makes me just feel like crying
Cause baby, something beautiful’s dying.

I’ve lost that lovin’ feeling
Woahoh that lovin’ feeling
I’ve lost that lovin’ feeling
Now it’s gone, gone, gone

But baby, baby, if you would get down on your knees for me,
Maybe I could love you like I used to do....

Neither my husband or I would mind. Having been in the playdate world, the dynamic always changes when the other spouse comes home. BUT... I usually took advantage of that to signal the end of the playdate! So not sure what they're doing here, but maybe the adults have relationship stuff to discuss, or perhaps the kids are making surprises for their at-work parents!

It’s weird. And sort of mean.

To ask your husband and the father of your children to stay out of his home because you can’t handle your business?

I do this all the time and he’s fine with it. He actually loves grabbing a beer after work and winding down and it gives my friends and I more time to hang out than when he comes homes, it’s kind of a “signal” for them to leave, no matter how much I say “no, really, stay” and we get an extra hour to socialize.
I don’t see the big deal at all.

Yes. I mean, not permanently, but for an hour or two. Why is that mean?

Heck no... I’d be able to spend more time at the gym. You all get your panties twisted over the stupidest things in life.

I wouldn’t be upset. I’d do a drive bye to see if she’s getting banged by someone...
Cheating, a$$, $lut, hoe, wife of mine.
2020, I’m gone and thank goodness we have no children.

Sadly, this is the crux of some relationships. My XH wanted the SAHW experience 5:45-11:30pm. But he wanted the WOHW finances come bill paying time. I’m remarried now. If I asked DH to delay an hour so I can restore order or just catch my breath, he does.
