[quote=Anonymous]39F with 2 kids 9yo and 3yo. Been struggling with the “is this all there is” for awhile. H is a good guy but just can’t handle the realities of kids. He can’t plan ahead, can’t remember everything that needs to be done, can’t handle kids being kids and gets frustrated easily. Kids are great but a handful. Oldest hates school so every morning is a battle. Youngest is 3 so just angry at the world all the time. I feel that 90% of my brainpower goes towards managing the house. H, did you schedule the 3 year checkup. Did you order the groceries. What are you planning for dinner. Will you be finished cooking by 6:30. Even just tonight, I hit a wall and just couldn’t make another damn decision. I went to order a salad and literally said “Caesar. No, the chicken pecan. No, the Caesar. No, wait, the chicken pecan. No the Caesar….can you just pick one” to the cashier. H and I had talked about taking the kids to an event tonight but I just couldn’t muster the brainpower to figure out what time to leave, where to park, where to get dinner, getting the kids up and moving because they’ll throw a fit….i asked H if he could just handle it this one time because I’m drained and he decided we won’t go because I have “bad energy he doesn’t want to be around”. I’m also gaining weight like crazy because I never have time to workout anymore and I eat too much junk because I’m just so mentally drained. I was out of town last week for work and it was so great. I felt so happy. I thought I wanted a family but reality is I don’t want to be around any of them because everything is always a battle trying to get anybody to do anything and nobody gives a sh!t about any of it.[/quote]
