Husband Goes To Meet Friends And Tricks Wife Into Making Dinner For His Kids, Is Livid After Learning She Ordered Takeout
Relationships are built on empathy and respect but sadly Reddit user TheJordanRiv121 just learned that her marriage lacks both of these components.
The woman is one of those people who work from home, and her partner believes that means she can do chores around the house. You know, because she physically isn’t in the office. Forget the fact that she also needs to provide for the family.
Lost and confused, the woman told the subreddit ‘Am I the [Jerk]’ all about her predicament, asking its members to help her make sense of what’s happening.
This woman was tricked into cooking for her stepchildren while she was working from home, so she simply ordered takeout

But her husband didn’t like it one bit

People unanimously said she was NTA — “not the a***ole” — and that she needs to reevaluate her relationship
What's unspoken but just as disturbing is that it doesn't sound like he is pulling his own weight financially either. Basically he has put most of the financial responsibility on her, and then gets mad because she is working long hours to fulfill that responsibility. What is he doing with his free time? It sounds like he had plenty of time to pre-make a meal for his kids later. Not only does he want a maid and mother for his kids, he also wants to be supported by her as well. At least that's the way it comes across. If he is looking for more work then that's a different matter but then he shouldn't be upset if she doesn't have the time to cook while she is bearing the primary responsibility of providing for the family.
Yeah, I was waiting for someone to mention that. That lady doesn't just have 2 stepkids, but a leech of a manchild. If he's not working full-time, he can totally do more around the house. An adult, especially one with dependent children should realize how important having an income is. It's not really about takeout either, but manipulation.

Yet another piece of garbage from a rat's a**s marriage. Leave and move on with your life, Lady. You're just his servant with some disgusting slave options. Yuch.
A bang maid who is also the family slave , nanny, and household drudge.
