Today, my husband decided he needs to be thanked after every time he changes our daughter's diaper; if not he throws a temper tantrum. Now I have two babies to deal with. FML
Collection
Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, instead of being an adult, my husband was more hysterical than my daughter during a hissy fit. It makes me want to divorce him. FML
Today, I'm so sick of being a mom. I have a screaming toddler and a squalling infant, tearing up the house and stinking up every room, and my husband still has the balls to not only be happy, but ask for ANOTHER. I'm about to walk, dump the kids with his smiley ass, and take his rich family's money. FML
Today, I challenged my husband to look after our twins by himself all day, like I normally do. When I got home, both babies had on clean nappies and clothes, dinner was cooked, the house was spotless, and three loads of washing were done. Smug bastard. FML
Today, my newborn daughter has kept me up all day and all night for the past few days. Usually my husband sleeps. I finally cracked and yelled for his help, only for him to scream at me that he needs sleep and gives her to me anyway. FML
Today, I asked my husband to be a little more responsible, pick up after himself, and spend a little less. I earn more than he does, so it's usually my money that he splurges. He has gone on a non-stop tantrum for the past 5 hours, giving me the cold shoulder, and shouting at me. What have I gotten myself into? FML
Today, my husband threw an epic tantrum because I asked him to put away the leftovers from dinner. Yeah, because I guess me going to the grocery store, then preparing and serving the food AFTER working a 10 hour day wasn’t enough. Thanks babe. FML
Today, my husband suddenly decided he was going to stop talking about all the changes he needed to make, and finally do them. That's great, except that in less than a day, he lost his shit at me and our young kids for not immediately fixing everything about ourselves as well. They're still sobbing and he doesn't care. FML
Today, I'm working while my husband is the stay at home parent. The house is spotless, our baby girl is happy, and he's never been happier. When I stayed at home, I could never keep the house tidy, and she cried constantly. How does he do it? No matter how we do it, I'm always the one who's tired and miserable. FML
Today, I came to the conclusion I have three kids instead of two, after having to force my husband to take a shower. It's been a week. FML
Today, my husband and my daughter engaged in a fart war. Guess who go to do a pile of shitty laundry, while the other texted his friends about the “hilarious” incident? FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

"Honey, I just changed a diaper." "Good for you." "Excuse me? Excuse me? I just changed a diaper and all I get is a good for you? I better get a thank you or I am going to throw a tantrum. Consider yourself warned."

YDI for not thanking your husband.

I'm not sure you've been with your husband long enough to realize that this is normal for men. I've had many discussions with many wives and it's the same story from each one. The wives will do light cleaning and pick up every day, picking up after their husbands and not saying a word or mentioning that they pull most of the weight around the house, but when the husbands actually pick up some dishes they've left behind or do a load of laundry, they remember it for months and remind you whenever you mention that you'd like a little extra help around the house. "Remember that time I did a load of dishes and laundry??" I try to remind mine that yes, he did do a load of laundry last week, and I've done it every other day since then... Yeah, they think they deserve an award for doing it at all. It's best just to not argue about it. I know mine will remember the fact that he did some housework this week and, for some reason, it'll wash out any work he's not going to do for the next few weeks. It's a normal practice, hun, believe me...

I agreed with you up to "It's best just to not argue about it." If you want equal status in the house and to not feel miserable and unappreciated, you should probably speak up when your husband's being an entitled jackass. Being irresponsible isn't a "man thing" that's completely unchangeable. Many of the men who get away with this do so because their wives let them.

I never, once, said that I didn't casually remind him that I do most of the weight pulling around. It's best not to make an argument out of it because it (as it did after first moving in with him) can become poison in the relationship. Constantly arguing is NOT going to make it better. Holding a grudge about it, yelling, and talking yourself into believing that he can't be talked to about it is just as childish as him throwing a tantrum over not receiving a "thank you" from her.. If you don't stop to talk to him about how you feel, every now and then, you're breaking down the foundation in your relationship and it's part of the reason why there are so many divorces out there.
