[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][twitter][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What's your interaction with him when he's at the official? Text? FaceTime? Nothing? [/quote]

not much. he will text and ask if we are okay. the lunch thing bugs me. he should be taking a break for lunch. he would do that at the office. he's not taking lunch and he's working more than he would be if he goes to the office. 10+ hours a day isn't normal. [/quote]

Most people work thru their lunch hour.  If my spouse didn't work and annoyed me while I tried to support my family, I would be very irritated.[/quote]

This. I am a woman. I rarely taken a lunch break in 25 years…and I have 2 kids. OP—stop micromanaging his work…you are going to end up divorced and having to get a full time job yourself. You sound controlling and entitled. [/quote]

Op here. That's not healthy for several reasons. If that works for you fine but again it's not healthy. Americans are too obsessed with work and then we wonder why we are stressed. No one is forcing my husband to work 13 hours a day except himself. If you need to work 13 hours a day something is wrong. There is very little time to do anything else. It will also cause physical problems to your body because sitting too much is bad for your health. Dh has back pain and one eye is red most of the time. He doesn't value the same things most people do. Downtime is important. Going out and doing activities with your family is also important. Life can't be all about working. It's one of the reasons he's irritable a lot because he doesn't do anything else except work. [/quote]

You have no work ethic. I don’t have health problems. I am good. Some people like to work. You sound lazy. I hope you end up divorced and realize what it is like to work instead of being a freeloader who complains. I am a woman and would divorce you in a hot second. Women like you make all of us look bad. Some people work a lot. Deal with it. You are welcome to divorce and support yourself. Many people work 50-60 hours a week. It is not like 80… I have met people like that. You are clueless.  [/quote]

Sounds like you are bad at math. 13 hours during the week and 6 on Saturdays is 70 hours a week.

I agree OP’s DH hates her for some reason. Not sure how much of it is his fault or hers. I will also say this is a common SAHM/breadwinner dynamic. The breadwinner simultaneously feels stressed and arrogant, emboldened to treat the wife and kids like crap because they are providing for them.[/quote]

No, I am not doing math. She said 50-60 hours. 70 hours is not unheard of. I am a woman and work this much a lot of weeks. OP is entitled and annoying. No one should expect to see their spouse during the work day. She needs a job herself. He is not treating her like crap. He is working. She is needy. They never should have gotten married. [/quote]
