DH continuing to be an ass and I'm done crying ( at least I want to be)

Last night after everything was said DH came home from work and just ignored me. I tied to talk calmly he just ignored me. I tried to hand baby to him and ask him to watch him while I showered he just kept his back to me and walked away ignoring me. So I ended up taking a bath with baby. I come into the room to DH laying on the bed naked with the blanket only covering his naughty bits. I put baby in his crib.

DH: You wanna taste some lolipop

ME: Really? after you just told me you only had BS to make me happy and then you ignored me all day.

DH: Come on just get over it. I will leave if you bring that shit up again. Its said and done don't bring it up.

ME: I've been upset all day.

DH: *Puts on boxers and pants* just forget it

ME: What did I do? Is this about the promotion? Did I bring up having another baby to soon? Please talk to me.

DH: I already told you being a mom comes first you don't need that promotion we get by just fine and I don't want anymore kids ok just leave it at that!

ME: Its not just about money I worked hard for that

DH: I know I know can we just go to sleep

Me: Choking back tears

DH: If your gonna start crying I'm going to a hotel I'm to tired for this * puts on shirt*

ME: You're really living stop it please I'm sorry

DH: You're not acting like the newbie I married

ME: your're not the man I fell in love with as soon as something good happens to me you turn your back. *crying*

DH: *Walks to door* don't you hear baby crying why don't you go be a mom to him before you get to busy.

ME: What if I was pregnant right now?

DH: You would be stupid to get pregnant right now really fucking stupid * walks out door*

Me: I'm gonna go on a dating website and find a new DH *slams door*

DH: *gets in car and silently drives away*

I am here with the baby and the stepkids and I had to call out of work today. I still haven't seen or heard from him and he wont answer his cell phone. This is not who he is. we are suppose to be two sides of the same coin. I can never have good things happen to me without something horrible happening. This man is not my husband. I am so in love with my husband and I have put my all into our family and his kids and trying to make him happy. Why is he acting like this? I still feel a lump in my throat and hot tears hitting my face. I just don't understand. All the laughs the kisses the magical wedding the firework connection the love to end all love and he just blows out the candle without a care. There was a time he couldn't look me in the face if he made me cry. He would wipe my tears and do anything to make me smile again. How could he just walk out that door? That man that walked out of that door and is not answering his phone is not my husband. I want my husban back.

First off I would leave the skids & take my baby and go where I needed to go to calm down. He's an idiot & he abandoned his kids along with his wife.

Stop apologizing. You did nothing wrong. Don't let him break you.

Honestly sounds like he was looking g for an excuse to start a fight. No man could have possibly honestly thought that was the appropriate time to expect a blow job. No way in hell. He wanted the blow up so he could walk out.

I'm so sorry you're going thru this, but your DH is showing you who he truly is, a major Dickhead Asshole, sorry. Don't let him beat you down, stay strong, and kick his ass to the curb.

I'm so sorry. This is a horrible situation for you to be in. And what a complete and totally jackass. He just keeps sticking his foot in deeper and deeper into the shit pile he created.

And then on top of it all, he leaves YOU with HIS kids?? OMG.

At least now you know what his issue is. He thinks that your promotion will make you so busy that you will expect HIM to pick up the slack with parenting and housework.

misSTEP's picture

Oh - and any guy who is too tired to comfort his crying wife but NOT too tired for a blowjob is a little kid and not a man at all.

OK,the part that has me wanting to punch him in his naughty parts, is the part where he leaves you with HIS kids????? Who does that???

Time to pack up his and his kids' stuff and leave it on the lawn. Call the BM and have her come pick up the skids.

I'm not sure if they're just empty threats, but this is the second time you've told him you want to find a new DH .. if there is any truth to this, I would just say that you need to focus on yourself and your kid right now .. and how you're going to get rid of this d*ckhead husband of yours.

Seems like the honeymoon phase was working some pretty heavy magic on him. Let's hope he's not chasing that feeling with another woman now ..

GRADE A MOTHERFUCKING ASSHOLE ON THE ROAD ALERT. If I see this bastard of a DH, I'd totally let him have it. I'm fuming for you right now. Maybe it's because of the hormones but I'd go Lorena Bobbit on his ass.

How dare he, how abso-fucking-litely dare he. His fragile little ego can't handle the fact that his wife is finally doing something for herself and is going to be successful, as noted by how many times he tells you to "be" a mom.

Guess what motherfucker, you can be both a mom and be freakin' successful too. Millions of women do it a day, hell, the women on this site do it all the freakin' time!!!!

I hope you stand up for yourself and get either counseling or divorced, STAT. I swear, either he's PMSing or he's showing his true colors. Either way it's absolutely unacceptable. What was the newbie he married? The fuck does that even mean? The one who wasn't as successful now? The one who was going to be his pretty little housewife?

AW HELL NAW.

One thing, please don't apologize again, because you did absolutely nothing wrong, and by saying sorry, you're giving him leeway to think he'd right. Asshole doesn't remotely deserve an apology for what he's said. In fact, he should be GROVELLING at your feet at this point.

Good luck, and seriously, kick him one in the balls for me.

Accept that promotion and take care of you and your baby. Let asshole get custody of his first born brat and he can deal with both of his kids all on his own. And pay you CS.

newbiestepmom25's picture

I'm hurting. I don't want a divorce I love my husband. I know I can make it on my own but I'm not ready for my world to come crumbling down. I want to go to counseling or something. I can't give up on a almost 2 year marriage without a fight.

Don't threaten him with Child Support .. it's meant to help support children in split homes, not as a tool for bitter ex's to throw around.

SMof2Girls's picture

Believe me .. I completely understand heat of hte moment statements Smile

I agree .. take away the on-call babysitter (OP) for his kids and he will be forced to adjust his behaviors.

Sorry to hear....and it "really is easier to say than done." But you deserve a better husband!
Do you really want a husband like this? When the going gets tough he actually keeps going?
He has already showed you that he doesn't want to resolve things, he'd rather walk away. Thats what my ex did to me.
And I say this because I've been in your shoes, I think he is already making his exit strategy and dont worry, you will be fine. You will go thru periods of grieving and wondering what you did wrong. You may think because you had a baby, your body isnt good enough anymore, you may feel like your useless and who the hell would want you?
I felt this and more(maybe you dont), point is it may be hard in the beginning and it may take a while to get over this, but you will be better off long term, you may not think you will TRUST ME you will.
You want more kids, he doesnt, find someone who also wants more kids! People that care don't walk away so easy!
You have a career, set yourself up good for the future! Put him in the rear view mirror!
Best of Luck!

he's an immature fuck that is not cut out to be a parent or a husband. you and the baby deserve better. i would call cps on him for child abandonment, i would not keep the kids and miss work because of him, then i would pack up and leave. he's a POS.

I know you don't want your life to come crumbling down but the reality is that is exactly what is happening.

If he's not having an affair he probably will be soon. Men with fragile egos often look for new sexual partners to try to make themselves feel better. Don't have unprotected sex with him as you don't need any diseases.

The real issue is not whether someone else is touching his genitals. He's being horrid to you. Men who really want out do this all the time. It's easier if you leave so they try to make you so miserable that you do.

If he is not going to go to counseling and really communicate with you then you need to do what is called the "180". In summary it is just indifference - no expectations. He wants you to beg and plead.

Whatever you do DO NOT TURN DOWN THAT PROMOTION. You most likely are going to need a strong career to take care of your child. You know that you cannot depend on this man so make sure that you and your child will be cared for by you.

THIS!

My ExH cheated on me. I truly had no idea why..I mean we never fought, we worked different shifts and had different interests, but that was the way we were before marriage. So I figured it HAD to be MY fault somehow. My therapist told me that she felt it was a classic case of ego with him. He was a bartender. I got a new, much better, job about 5 years into the marriage and actually had a career. She said that he cheated because he needed to find someone who was "below" his level to make him feel better about himself. I still didn't really understand because I NEVER rubbed it in his face or anything like that.. NEVER! But my therapist said it really had nothing to do with ME. It was his stupid ego and issues.

I am willing to bet that there is someone else. Makes perfect sense that your DH has been slowly turning into an asshole, pulling away from you and saying he never really wanted your BS... of course not, because NOW he is thinking about when he gets busted (and he will) he is going to have to pay CS to two BMs. Bet that is the only reason he hasn't physically left this marriage already because trust me, he has already emotionally checked out.

this stuff is happening too fast. he's completely changed on you, you do not recognize him. think. are there any other signs that perhaps he's having an affair? men don't typically destroy their marriages in a matter of hours like this without a back-up plan. a big hint here is he's shown you that his ego is bruised by your promotion. what do men do when they're egos are bruised? he was almost begging for a reason to leave. quit appologizing. quit groveling. you did nothing wrong. SNAP OUT OF IT. pick yourself up and stand with dignity. plenty of time to cry later. you need to act now. get as much money in your hands as you can right now. call somebody to come get those skids or text him and tell him he has 1 hour to get his kids picked up or you're calling the police and reporting those kids abandoned. you need to be in self-preservation mode right now.

I dropped the steps of at the in-laws. I've wiped my tears. /you guys are right i am better than this. I am going to enjoy my promotion. Get my hair and nails done and start wearing my hottest outfits and my highest heels. I need to feel good about myself and enjoy the promotion I worked so hard for. if this is how DH wants to be he can go find another wife of lesser value because he just threw away his diamond. One day he will look back and think of how great his life would have been with me in it. I guess even when bullshit happens you gotta pick yourself up by the boot straps no matter how hard it seems. I thank you for all your support I will get through this eventually. And if he is cheating he will get his karma and fall hard on his ass and he will turn around and I will be walking over him with a big smile on my face one red pump at a time.

I am still flabbergasted that this man, walked out last night, left HIS kids with you and he hasn't spoken to you since?? Wow, cares a lot about his kids.. geesh!

misSTEP's picture

I am glad that you have taken the time to realize what a complete and total douchebag this jackass is. I hope you never look back. You are worth SOOO much better than him.

agreed

I'm gonna guess he's been looking for an out. sounds way too much like my exh who was cheating after we had ds. I hate to say it but he's probably not at a hotel or at least not alone. You need to focus on you and baby text his phone that skids are his responsibility and your leaving. Then leave. Do not sit waiting around start moving foraward with your life as if your already divorced. You need to NOT chase him, engage him, barter, beg or degrade yourself. Your promotion is a step in the right direction. whether he is cheating or not (I'm of the mind he is but I'm jaded) this may help

It sounds like he is trying to bully you into not taking that promotion. Hell, you get offered a promotion and then the next day he loses his mind and leaves you with his kids so you can't even go to work! Plus I am sure he knows he has your own mother on his side because she told you not to take it too. I feel so bad for you, at a time when you should really be on a big high, you are being brought down by the two people that you are probably closest to. That just sucks! You worked so hard for this promotion, right? Do not let ANYONE bully you into not taking it.

Sweetie, the second that man walks out the door and refuses to answer his phone you call child protective services, say your DH walked out and left you, he left HIS kids behind and you would like them picked up since they are not YOUR children and you let them come get the skids and either take them to a relative or to a foster home. You are only responsible for YOUR child. Not HIS.
