Dear Husband:
I do not know what side of the bed you woke up on this morning but the way you spoke to me is completely unacceptable. I have spent my entire day off running around getting groceries and household necessities...things you take for granted that I will make sure to get for you.
Shopping takes time. Especially in big name stores that are one stop shops like Walmart. So if I spend a couple of hours walking around making sure I have gotten everything the household needs sobeit. I always make sure i home with enough time for you to get to work when you need to be there.
You make comments like I don't take out the garbage, the living room is always a mess, I am merely lazy! Well when you wake up at 5am to get to school to sit through a 4 hour lecture and try to retain it while then coming home to a very active 15 month old and being with her and juggling attention to her and doing my homework, doing bathtime and bedtime and then cleaning up and doing homework...all while being very exhausted. Then I usually feel bad if I don't cook you some sort of dinner and so I struggle to stay awake to make you something hot for when you get home.
Yet you have the nerve to call me horrific names, and tell me I am not doing a good job...maybe not in so many words but instead of thank you for trying your best babe I am proud of you is there anything I can do to help, you let me know that you are NOT helping me bring up the groceries nor will you bring our child down so my mother can look after her. Being difficult gets you nowhere but alone. And there may come a time when that has to happen. I cannot take your verbal teardowns on top of everything I am doing. I am already exhausted from doing everything....something has gotta give somewhere.
Just thought you should know how I feel...I feel saddened, alone, and frustrated and angry. You want something done then give me the support and help I need to work together and do things around the house.
Sincerely,
Your Wife
