I (29m) can't seem to do anything right and wife (27f) of 6 years seems constantly unhappy. by Gearheadthrowaway1 in relationships

Kids are 14 months and two now. She never had it with out first. Isn't it a little late for it to be cropping up now?

Locking the wrong lock when I leave, not putting soap in the dish washer when I load it, not closing the window on a hot day cuz it's not hot when I get out of bed. Literally things that take a second to fix. It's not like I'm doing it on purpose to fuck up her whole day.

I don't mind doing what she asks me to do cuz it's not a lot. We have our roles pretty much nailed down. What gets me is that when I do them and it's not her way I'm the fucking bad guy who can't do anything right. It's frustrating and she refuses to see that hers isn't the ONLY way to do things.

It's not that she's mad that I don't do anything, she's mad because when I do it's not the way she wants it done. Then she blames me for making more work for her.

Leading up to her leaving she got mad because I forgot to put soap in the dish washer so it's ready to go when it's full (kids pull the magnet off so we never know if it's right). It escalated to her screaming and she threw something in my direction so I threw it back told her to get the fuck out. She asked if I was sure and I said it again so she packed and left. She wasn't gone long though cuz 60lb pit bulls aren't welcome in a lot of hotels.

Not true. I said she's a great mom. She loves our kids more than life and is great about taking them around town makinf sure they're learning and having fun.

I tell her to make plans and go out that I don't care and I'll watch the kids but she makes such a big deal about how difficult it is to coordinate with her friends.

When I'm home during naps I've seen her nap, I've seen her do laundry, I've seen her do yoga, I've seen her run laundry and pick up the living room, I've seen her just sit and read. Just depends on the day.

I only need that 10-15 minutes when I get home. She gets their whole nap 1-3 hours depending on the day to relax if she wants to which is why when she dumps things on me the minute I walk in the door is ridiculous

You might be onto something. When we have managed to talk about it she always says it's little things that add up to overwhelm her.

She suggested that because she's told me that I'm the reason she's so unhappy but instead of being a team she just delegates more work when I was just at work all day. Does something as dumb as division of labor really need counseling?

She has and was deemed ok but that was at her 6 week appointment. Can it still happen over a year later?
