Do you also sometimes get a bit annoyed with ladies with a OH?


I do.
I see threads where they whine for nothing.
That they had to go to the store alone etc etc the list can be made long but I wont bother!

Anyone else getting annoyed at these ladies nagging?

I don't really see it as them whinging for nothing. I suppose when you're not used to being a single parent things like that don't seem trivial. The thing that does annoy me a bit is people (not necessarily on here, just in general) who complain about doing night feeds and things when their OH shares it with them because I never had any help from my ex with anything like that and I was expected to cook all the meals and do all the housework as well!

It doesn't really bother me tbh.. There's more important things in life that you can worry about.

I think we are all guilty about complaining about things that aren't important in the grand scheme of things.

It does seem a little harsh to get angry at those in relationships though, I think people are entitled to talk about their relationships, and the ups and downs.

I don't really notice the threads but it annoys me when people I know do it. My friend is always complaining about her oh and has said loads of times things like "I know how you feel" because her boyfriend goes to work, comes home by 3pm and is sometimes "tired".

She doesn't understand being alone during the daytime because your oh has a job doesn't compare to being alone physically, emotionally and financially 24/7.

I think its a bit sad those that cant go anywhere without OH. People who moan when OH goes on a night out etc, but thats their problem not mine x

Eer I think we have the right to vent our annoyance at our OH if we like, that is what the forum is for - you're using it to vent your frustrations then why can't we??????

It doesn't make me angry or annoyed, but it does make me sad! I HATE feeling so alone, I'm overwhelmed with panic at how i'll cope on my own and just wish they wouldn't take it for granted so much.

What DOES make me angry is how every fricking pregnancy book/leaflet/mag I read refers to partners CONSTANTLY. Let your partner do this, take into account his feelings, yadda yadda. Never f-all about going it alone!
