[quote=Anonymous][quote] This is OP. I just want to know when things will get better. For years I have been operating like a single parent during the week. DH doesn't help the kids in the morning (I let him wake up whenever he wants to), he doesn't help in the evenings (he comes home between 8:30-9:00pm). On weekends he is more involved. He will play games with the kids and take them to sports practice. We rarely do any family activities other than go out to lunch or brunch a few times a year. For years, I have taken kids on weekend outings, trips and visits to my family (DH will only come done for 1 night on major holidays). We never go out together and he doesn't like to socialize much with other families or couples. Just wondering what's the point of living this kind of life?[/quote]

You seem fundamentally unhappy - and not just from work/life balance issues.

I don't think you're wrong in wanting your husband to be more engaged with the family or to have some social life, but it doesn't really sounds like he'd be up for that even if he was working 9-5. [/quote]
