[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Is he really hunting in the morning?  Sounds like something else may be going on...[/quote]

Trust me, no.  He's hunting (as I'm picturing all the ground venison I stayed up til 2am the other night vacuum packaging, and the severed deer head that is currently in our chest freezer...[/quote]

My Ex was a hunter and all the hunting business and grossness that came with it was his business.  One day I arrived home from work to find a couple of quail in our refrigerator with the feathers, on etc.  I threw those damn things in the trash, I didn't care how long it took him to hunt them or how many hunting buddies he had invited over.  Hunting came between our marriage, we didn't have children together which was a blessing.  But during hunting season he was never home and my birthday fell on hunting season and according to him it needed to wait until after deer season, notice I say he is my EX.  Everything revolved around hunting season for my EX but that was not the entire problem of our marriage, he felt like when he wanted to hang out with the guys or other couples that he could go as he pleased and didn't care if I had to work or not.  HE would take weeks off during hunting season and then not have any vacation saved up for vacation together.  Once during hunting season, I was sick as a dog --- throwing up, fever, laying in the bathroom floor -- yes he still went hunting.  I had to call my parents -- that was the last straw for me.

OP, I hope you can find a happy median in your relationship, but it looks like he works PT and you still do a majority of the work, parenting, child care, etc.  You need to have an honest sit down conversation to see where his heart is in this marriage.  [/quote]
