Guy Has A Problem With Everything Wife Does, She Finally Stops After He Confesses He Hates Her
As a woman, it frustrates me that we still hear so many stories about men acting like chauvinists and burdening their wives with all the domestic work and childcare. It doesn’t really feel like things have changed for women, and their fight for equality continues.
Just look at this working mom, who also looked after their toddler and managed all the household chores. What annoyed her was that despite all her efforts, her husband kept whining about everything, and also said that he hated her! However, here’s what happened when she stopped doing anything for him…

Well, she decided to stop doing anything for him after that, and things just fell apart as he couldn’t do a single thing on his own

However, she refused to budge from her decision as she wanted him to apologize for calling her ungrateful, lazy, and spoiled
Today, we dive into this couple’s conflict that got intensely heated after the original poster (OP) finally stopped doing anything for her husband. Their marriage started on a pretty good note, but things changed some time after their son was born. OP was juggling everything on her own, from dropping their son off at the daycare to cleaning the house, as well as cooking.
Meanwhile, all that her husband did was complain about everything that she did. One day, their argument escalated so badly that he said he hated her and didn’t really need or want her. This came from a guy who literally depended on his wife for everything! Anyway, the fact that he said he hated her triggered OP so much that she finally decided to put her foot down.
Since he “didn’t need her,” the poster decided to listen to him and stopped doing anything for him. As expected, his life erupted into chaos, as the guy could barely even lift a finger without her help. He had friends waiting for announcement cards and even wedding gifts. He was wearing creased-up clothes and eating at McDonald’s.
Even their apartment was an absolute mess as his clothes were lying on the floor and his unwashed dishes were just piling up high. Well, the guy was extremely frustrated with his wife at this point, but she refused to back down. In fact, she expected an apology from him with a realization that she was not “ungrateful, lazy, and spoiled” as he claimed.

After she vented online, all netizens could do was point their fingers at him and call him a man-child. Experts stress that such men lack emotionally mature responses, display irresponsible behavior, and blame others. A man-child also doesn’t help out with mundane aspects of adult life and lacks an awareness of the need for self-care.
That definitely sounds like OP’s husband. It’s honestly baffling how he burdened her with everything, yet kept whining. Research emphasizes that the unequal distribution of labor results in increased stress, imbalance in relationships, resentment, and diminished intimacy. It elaborates that this burnout can negatively impact the whole family.
Well, can you really blame the poster for finally putting her foot down? After all, I don’t think anyone can really tolerate such an unhelpful spouse for so long. Dreadfully enough, studies have proven that an unsupportive partner’s effect on your nerves is nothing compared to the impact it has on your arteries. Basically, this can cause a greater risk for heart disease.
It’s heartbreaking to think that the poster had to go through it for two years before she put a stop to it. I truly hope that the guy understood his mistake, and if not, she dumped him as netizens had advised. What would you do if you were in her shoes? We would love to hear your thoughts, so feel free to drop them in the comments below!
Netizens warned her that she should ditch the guy immediately, as he was clearly being emotionally violent toward her

Is there really a comeback from "he hates me, doesn't need or want me". Like, why is he even still there?

Convenience. Plus he hasn’t yet asked his affair partner if he can sponge off her after leaving his wife. Did I mention I suspect he’s been cheating since OP was in the last months of pregnancy/first months after giving birth, when s*x is that last thing in her mind—-and even if it did cross her mind, she’s probably too exhausted to follow through in that thought anyway. A real man who loves his wife would see all she’s going/been through and put the needs of his d**k aside to step up and be a good husband and father instead of being nothing more than a d**k with legs.

I'll never understand people who get married and have children this soon. Two years, seriously? At this age? What do you even know about life at 21? Man, this is stûpid.

One of the reasons there are horrible marriages in the military Is enlisted members actually get paid more for housing if they have a family since family can’t live in the barracks. My father ended up going to officer school after enlisting. But prior, while enlisted, he had to get approval. This was over 5 decades ago. I remember as a kid it changed and he had to deal with a lot of domestic issues because all these young people just saw a bigger paycheck. I was a commander spouse and we had this phone tree thing for the spouses. Like clockwork, every weekend night hubby would get calls after midnight too. I used to monitor the spouse FB site and the Housewives have nothing on that drama. There were a few incidents we were able to get in front of but these people were grossly immature.
