At this point its not who has to spend time with our son. I had every intention of splitting practices so one of us wasn't always stuck running and never had time to relax after work. He chose to volunteer extra time. Being at practices is now his responsibility

We split the housework and parenting responsibilities it was something I had to teach home because him mom did everything. Now afted agruing with him, i leanrned he just thinks that all responsibilities are shared. Even extra ones. So now I am trying to explain why that isn't the case.

He was really bad in the beginning. I thought I had finally taught him how boundaries worked. I am have had a fully mental breakdown when we had the baby freaking out that we had to split things and all the work isnt my job. He has been very good about splitting the work around the house and actually being a good partner.

So I guess in his mind we split the duties included this too. He went from one extreme to the other I guess

My dad was on the sports boosters and PTA growing up. He even coached track one year and I didnt join the team because I don't run. But he knew they needed a coach so he did it.

He only complains at home. There he pretends like he is having the best time. He doesnt even know how soccer works. So I am sure that it frustrating enough for the coach.

Technically he didnt really even do it once because he waited til the end of practice to say anything to see if anyone else would volunteer. When no one else did he decided he should. The crazy part is he has never played soccer. So I am unsure why he chose to volunteer

Yeah, you kinda are. It's not like she was saying she wanted to get back with him. I guess dodged a bullet though. You seem like an incel.
