Why not pay a babysitter and have the Friday dinner with your DH + the new co-worker?

I tell my wife to go out with her GFs all the time.
When she come home she knows I'll be ready to go

Stop whoring around at night and stay home with your kid.

Anonymous wrote:On the rare occasions I go out, DH gives me a hard time about him staying home with our 2.5 yo. This makes me never want to go out. This week we have a new person at work. She just moved here and is on her own. So I took her out for dinner Monday, her first night. We made plans to go out Friday so she wouldn't be all alone and bored on her first weekend. Saturday is a birthday dinner for a friend. Aside from this rather busy week, I go out to a movie or dinner or something with friends maybe once every 2-3 months. DH also travels for work and frequently has fun dinners out. I know this weekend is heavy on going out, but I'm so annoyed he's complaining about this.


The husband should not bitch about once every 2-3 months. Any decent guy knows that a parent needs a break. But three times in a week? He has every right to bitch. Additional point, anyone who travels on business knows that it generally miserable. Yes, you might have a fun dinner but air travel is like being in a cattle car and TSA is such fun. Next time he leaves at 5am or gets home at 11pm ask him if he is having fun.

I agree.


I agree in spades. OP's DH is in the right.

My DH has been travelling a lot for work lately. He is practically insisting that I get a girls trip together or at least go away myself. That's what a good partner would do.
