I had a hard lesson form Gustav.. My count boss waited to the last second to tell me that I didn't need to come in for work. My GF at the time was freaking out and wanted to evacuate NOW! Finally my boss said they didn't need me to come in. We packed up the car and spent 21 hours to get to Birmingham. Contra flow can be a nightmare. The whole way she bitched about the traffic and how we should have just left w/o hearing from "your bitch of a boss". My current GF went to Atlanta earlier last week. I was happy about that...

You have chosen wrong with these needy women. While I'm offshore, my wife has grilled her own food, cut 6 acres of grass, but not before picking up limbs from 20 pecan trees and trapped a possum that has been living in our attic. That was just this past weekend. Ungrateful spoiled counts! These women need to this hard to time to start appreciating things a little more.

How old is the baby? She could be dealing with postpartum or baby blues and perhaps that’s the reason? My wife is currently all the weeks pregnant so she has been zero help with any of the physical cleanup or childcare. The physical and mental toll is legit tough and just keep at it. No other choice at this point.

quit your bitching.

how about you grow a pair and tell her to shut the hell up and go stick your dick in one of her holes.

be a man, pussy. stop sitting back and letting her stupidness dictate everything, although i'm pretty sure you've been doing this for years with her, so the problem is likely difficult to fix at this point.

You and your wife needs to have a serious talk. Tell her you understand your frustration, you're frustrated as well. But you're trying to hold things together to the best of your abilities.

If she is adamant that you spend more daddy time with the baby, see if is she is ok with doing any of the manual physical labor with cleanup and generator maintenance. She will most likely say no, so if she does, explain this will only be temporary. It's a small sacrifice that must be made for the betterment of the family and the household

If you didn’t have a newborn I’d swear you married my ex-wife.

Some women are spoiled rotten princesses who have no redeeming qualities in hard times.
I feel for you.

Just tell her you understand it’s hard for her right now but things will return to normal soon.

She wants you to recognize her baby caring efforts and wants you to suffer with her.

My wife had a hard time nursing and put a lot of pressure on herself. She’d nurse for 1-2 hours at a time and would be miserable doing it. I’d do all the cooking, cleaning, yard work, but she would get pissed if I left the house for 30 min to go hit golf balls at the range. Turns out she just wanted me to be as miserable as she was.

I feel you man. This was me in the past. My strategy shifted and I vowed to never stay in Louisiana again without electricity. It’s just too much of a hardship for everyone and can lead to many other problems and strained relationships.

I am in Costa Rica. The weather is perfect, and
My mind is fresh. I would suggest that if your job allows—picking a place on the map and going there for 14 days. Turn suffering into pleasure. Just choose to skip the misery. It can just be too much. Spend it somewhere you enjoy and rest your body and mind.

When society collapses and the power inevitably goes out for good, we're all going to be killed by packs of psychopathic wives who won't be able to properly do their hair.

First of all, sorry this is happening to you. I think every married man has been in this situation. She's just as stressed out as you and sees keeping your child alive is just as important as what you do. Maybe it is, maybe it isn't. Take the kid a couple times a day even if it screams for her. That doesn't matter. What matters is keeping her happy. Oh, and when there is nothing left of your soul, just remember football season is here.

fricking livid is an understatement. We got served American cheese slices on cracker for dinner. I declined and just sipped my whiskey and smoked my joint so I didn't lose my shite.
Why couldn't you just have a normal conversation with her and tell her why you were upset? Why did it have to be either drinking alone in silence or losing your shite? Some of y'all have terrible communication in your relationships.
