When we used to date, he would pay for some meals & expenses (like movie tickets), almost 50-50. I pay for most of our holiday trips as he was almost always unemployed or not having any savings left.
when we got our flat, he paid 1K for the OTP, some from his CPF account and that was it...
Things haven gotten better despite trying to talk to him and getting my family to speak to him. In fact, he is behaving much worse.
Heavily pregnant now in my final trimester and we just had a quarrel when I asked him to help me with the hanging of the done-laundry after he came back from...
Yes your reference is very apt and all that sounds too familiar to me. I am now the wife Who makes passive-aggressive comments and resorts to using other women (my own mom and MIL) as my support system. But the effectiveness, alas, don’t last for long.
Thanks for sharing your experience. I...
I’m happy that you managed to overcome and stepped out of the abusive relationship.
I have half a mind to walk out now but I’m not sure if this is the best time to do it and give myself more stress and problems (assets division and lawyer fees) etc. Maybe constantly reminding myself to expect...
Thank you for your responses above. I read all of them even tho I may not be able to reply each of you.
It’s been getting hard to communicate with my Husband. Each time I try to talk about my feelings, he will see it as me pinpointing his faults. I feel deeply resentful towards him now and...
I’m also facing similar situation as you. My Husband plays games till early morning, goes to sleep, ask for food when he wakes up and plays games/watch tv till he “feels ready” to go work. Sometimes skip work coz he feels tired or sick.
Ignore the housework & basic cleaning up unless I keep...
Thank you for taking the time to reply my lengthy post. ❤️
I’ve exhausted all means regarding the dog. Talked to both my hubby and MIL a few times since expecting about the cleanliness, even sent them constant message reminders to clean up properly. But MIL always go back to her usual patterns...
Thank you dear. Yes I’m really afraid of the side-effects and repercussions on my baby, if I stay in such a constant anxious & stressful mood and environment.
I don’t feel like talking much to him now after he said those words and acted like that even after seeing me in pain. I’m thinking if I...
Thank you for your advise. Does this mean that I should stop having expectations of what my husband should do for me and the baby, and just rely on my own means to take care of the baby?
I’ve thought about this and told myself a few times to just be independent and do everything by myself. But...
I’m 26 weeks pregnant and just had another one of the many heated quarrels with my Husband.
1) MIL & dog
We have been fostering my MIL’s dog at our place as she doesn’t have a permanent accommodation. However, my MIL is not a very hygienic person and doesn’t follow my instructions to clean...
