[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Is he home for dinner? Does he travel a lot? Mine is basically at the office Monday-Friday, and by the time he gets home in the evenings, I'm too worn out with the kids to even deal with whatever 'sympathies' he's looking for with traffic or work stress.  I realize this is disrespectful to single moms, but sometimes I feel like one. I dream about leaving DC, the city where it seems like you commit your entire life to your career, above all else. I guess I'm just venting. I'm from a small town where life is just more enjoyable. [/quote]

LOL what if you WOH? C'mon you can muster up some sympathy. Don't you want him to be supportive of your stresses?[/quote]

OP seems to be coming from an extremely limited worldview. She doesn't even acknowledge two WOH parents. She should go back to Mayberry. FWIW, my work days are longer, I travel for longer periods and do all the kid-related work and family business as well. DH does bits, when I ask explicitly. So, I too sometimes "feel" like a single mom but I'm not and wouldn't insult single parents by comparing my plight to theirs. I don't love it, but it is my bed, and I can (mostly) sleep in it. IDH and I do vent to each other about stress in work, kids, other family business, etc. It goes both ways. [/quote]
