Good day house, I’m obviously new here, I am looking for some advice. I don’t want to talk to my mom or friends about this because I’m embarrassed by my husband’s lazy, selfish behavior, and I think it makes my husband look bad. I’m going to try to make this quick to the point. About 3 months ago I got a new job, at my husband’s insistence, for a higher salary and a better chance for raises/promotion. I loved my last job, and I am miserable at my current job, but that’s another story. Currently only have one car but we are planning on buying a second car in the next year. One of the things I pointed out to my husband several times, and discussed at length with him when making the decision to leave my last job for my current one was the fact that we would become a one car family and would not be able to purchase another car for a while. I now have a 1.5-2hour commute, one way, every day. It takes him 30 minutes to get to work or back home from work. For the last month or so my husband has been texting/calling me every day before leaving work to see if I will pick him up (his office is not on my way home, and I usually get home an hour to an hour and a half before his shift ends, so it’s not even convenient time-wise). My answer is obviously “oh! sorry hun, I’m already home”. Every day he texts me when his shift ends, whining about how he doesn’t want to BRT because the que is usually too long. Last week he left work early twice because someone whose shift ended 15 or 30 minutes earlier than his offered him a ride. In the last 3 months I have picked up my husband a couple of times (like if I had a day off and he didn’t or something) because of rush hour traffic it takes me at least 1 hour to pick him up from work. What is all this leading up to? Yesterday my husband PRETENDED TO BE SICK so that after spending 4 hours in the car already, I had to leave the house in the middle of my work out to spend another hour sitting in traffic because he was TOO LAZY to spend 15 minutes walking home from the bus stop. I’m glad that my husband is not sick. However…I’m pretty angry at his selfish,inconsiderate, lazy behavior. I’m also not happy that I have now set a precedent where he can get a ride home by pretending to be sick. Not sure what to do, now or in the future should this happen again.
