That’s It, We’re Husband Shaming
Husbands – you can’t live with them, you can’t live without them; well maybe some of the women in this list can! Despite the rise of equality and coming a long way from the age-old attitudes of leaving the women to take care of the house and the kids, some husbands still seem to think we’re living in the 1950’s. Whether they were raised as a momma’s boy, or they slipped back into their college days, some of these husbands are putting men to shame with their complete lack of disregard for their wives and kids. It’s got to a point where the wives are taking to social media to fight back, so have a scroll, and maybe you’ll realize that your significant other isn’t actually that bad!
Not A Short Order Cook
This woman is an actual saint because if it were us, we’d probably leave this husband to figure it out himself. Where do we even begin? Most people want a home-cooked hot meal the second they walk in from work. However, with busy schedules and plenty of house chores, it absolutely isn’t the norm. The list of what this husband and their son won’t eat is astonishing, no wonder she is asking for meal prep help!
This woman must love her family immensely to be satisfied with cereal most nights, even though she still has to cook her husband and child a gourmet dinner. Rather than asking for meal ideas, she honestly just needs a break. We are fully on board with her spa day, we’d probably even put money towards it for her!
Not Interested In Love Stories
Books aren’t for everyone, but there’s something so relaxing and therapeutic about digging into a good book and getting lost in the story for hours on end. When one woman asked her Facebook followers what the best book they’ve read this year was, another commenter decided that this post was the right place to unleash her anger. It was time for everyone to know her husband of 20 years cheating with a teenager.
There’s really a time and a place! While we have nothing but the utmost sympathy for this poor woman having to deal with her family being ripped apart, the lady who asked the harmless question probably wasn’t expecting such a shocking reply. Perhaps joining a book club would bring this heartbroken lady some warmth and support?
When Forgiveness Goes Too Far
We have a lot of questions about this post. It feels like we are missing an important part of the story here. Did the man in question cheat? Did he not want to be a father? Is there a specific reason why he is not named on the birth certificates? While we might not have answers, we can confidently say that this woman probably should not be marrying the absent father of her children.
Not only are there red flags all over the place, but it makes you wonder why this woman decided to write this in a public forum? If she is concerned about sharing legal custody with the father of her children who she is planning on marrying, she should really think twice before signing the marriage license.
Surrender The Guns Or Surrender The Husband
Gun safety is absolutely no joke and it is not to be messed around with. The second amendment permits Americans to keep and bear arms, but it is their responsibility that they are kept safe and secure, and certainly away from children. There are thousands of injuries and accidental deaths from firearms in the home every year. This husband is being completely irresponsible to have firearms within the reach of their 3-year old daughter.
Given this woman’s traumatic past with guns, these parents are being completely careless and putting their child at severe risk. In our humble opinion, it’s time for this wife to stop threatening and remove firearms from their home.
What Counts As Girly Food?
If your wife is kind enough to spend an entire day cooking in the kitchen for you and your family, don’t ask questions or make rude comments. Be appreciative of her hard work and delicious recipes and enjoy it! We don’t even know what girly food is, but it’s a ridiculous excuse for why this husband made his wife cook an entire separate meal for Easter.
Holidays with the family are stressful enough and there is so much planning that goes into them, so it’s pretty rude and obnoxious of this man to complain about something so trivial. Easter is about celebrating with your loved ones and spreading joy, it seems this husband has done exactly the opposite.
You May Now Bury The Groom
Weddings are supposed to be filled with love and celebrations as the bride and groom commit their lives to one another. Well, it seems that one husband took the words ’till death do us part’ slightly too literally and thought it would be funny to enter his wedding in a coffin. Now we’re unsure if he was insinuating that he was burying his single days, or he believed that his life was over, but one thing is for sure, it’s horrifyingly disrespectful.
The bridesmaids probably should have declined the request to be the pallbearers, and the bride should have walked back down the aisle. This is just not the way to say “I love you and I want to spend my life with you.” Rest in Peace to the whole relationship!
You’re Not A Good Dad, Or A Good Dentist
When you see Internet comments like these, you have to wonder if expecting fathers read a single baby book, attended any health classes for their kids, or if the pregnant moms knew that their husband would be a total idiot when becoming a dad. It is absolutely horrifying that this husband was insistent on sterilizing his baby’s gums with whiskey and scratching the gum tissue away to stop teething pain. Someone needs to call the CPS!
Perhaps if either parent was clued in on how to help their child they would know about something called Infant Tylenol, it is actually used to dull the pain for babies. Resorting to whiskey might have been done in the 1900’s, but it’s absolutely not something you should ever try now.
When You’re Not A Qualified Father
This post gets worse the more you read on. Choosing a fit father for your children and the right partner to have a family with is extremely important, so why do so many women have such a bad judgment of character? The fact that this woman has let her partner get away with doing absolutely nothing for 8 months is absolutely absurd. It’s even worse that her partner has no interest in doing anything to raise his child.
It’s not just about being in the house with your child, it is about caring for them and being present in their lives. It is a completely irresponsible and callous attitude to have, and this woman should probably give her partner a serious ultimatum. If you can’t care for your child in the best way you can, don’t reproduce!
When The Boys Won’t Give Up Their Saturday
Thanks to toxic masculinity, many guys use the phrase “Saturday is for the boys” to get out of spending time with their partners in favor of going out with their group of guys to partake in all kinds of shenanigans. While some young college girls might accept this, it’s taking things way too far to plan your wedding on a Friday because Saturday is strictly reserved for the boys.
If this wife has accepted that spending her life with this man means everyday other than Saturday, then to each their own. Still, in years to come, she may end up regretting her decision. Judging by the look on her face in this picture, she may have only just realized what she has signed up for!
When The Husband Is Lazy, Do It Yourself
It’s really not that hard to take initiative to do something kind for the woman you love, or is it? It’s no secret that men need to be trained most of the time, but when you’ve been with someone for years, surely they would have understood the assignment to do something thoughtful on birthdays or anniversaries? This wife got fed up with the lack of effort from her husband, so she set everything up herself.
Making breakfast and telling your kids to make cards are two of the easiest and most simple asks for a birthday. It’s pretty embarrassing that he couldn’t even take the initiative to do it himself, plus, it looks like there are alot of similar enabler wives in the comment section. Do better boys!
You Can’t Keep Blaming The Cat
Accidents happen, but when gross things keep happening, it’s time to have a serious discussion about making it stop. This thread was about moms discussing gross things happening in their homes, but it seems that one wife got so fed up with her husband’s antics that she decided to expose him on a public post. Going to the bathroom at night is not a hard task, especially when you’re a fully grown adult!
We can’t imagine the excuses he comes up with in the morning when his wife smells an odd smell in their hamper and their cat box. There’s only so many times you can blame things on your pets, but this one seems like it’s getting out of hand.
More Care, Less Control, Please!
Pregnancy is extremely challenging and exhausting both physically and mentally, but all of that doesn’t go away once you’ve given birth. Mothers need time to rest, regain their strength, and connect with their newborn and husbands should be supportive and encouraging of it. This wife’s complaints are completely valid, she needs at least 12-weeks of maternity leave, she has worked hard enough and saved enough.
Her husband’s attitude sucks! When your wife is carrying your child and bringing them into the world, you should do nothing but give them everything they need. There are plenty more important things to consider after having a baby than just money. Someone please give this man a dose of reality, he needs it.
Serious Problem With The Panties
There are so many things wrong with this post that you just want to tell this poor wife to run away. Her husband clearly has some self-esteem and insecurity issues if he thinks that the underwear she wears to work means that she is being unfaithful. Has he never heard of visible panty lines? Giving her an ultimatum for what she chooses to wear to work is completely absurd.
It sounds like this husband is extremely jealous that his wife goes to the office with nice underwear on, and when she’s at home she wears comfy undies. This just sounds like an unhealthy relationship to us, rather than venting on social media, maybe speak to the man in question.
Take Your Kid And Call The Cops
There are some situations that are a question of morals, while others are actually against the law and this is one of them. It seems that this woman has already left this man as she refers to him as her “child’s father”. Quite rightly so! This is unbelievably irresponsible, not to mention dangerous and illegal. Why any parent thinks it’s ok to put a one year old in the passenger seat of their car is reprehensible.
Just because they had an argument, doesn’t mean he should put his child in danger! Some men aren’t fit to be fathers and until they start acting like them. We need to protect our children and keep them away from careless attitudes. We hope this woman never lets any situation like this happen again.
When He Feels Emasculated By A Doctor
It seems that this pregnant woman’s husband couldn’t seem to understand that doctors need to see inside your body throughout your pregnancy to check that the baby is healthy and growing. Despite the fact his wife was checking up with a doctor on their unborn child, it seems he only cared about one thing. He was just focused on her getting an internal scan and equated it to cheating.
Whether this woman knew about her husband’s jealousy issues before they got married or not, it is something that will plague them in the future. If he is already furious about a doctor performing an ultrasound on her, what else could he get furious about? Maybe focus on being a supportive and loving husband, instead of an insecure and emasculated fool.
Therapy Isn’t Going To Cut it
Some people can be helped and molded into open-minded and compassionate humans while others are truly a lost cause. This wife seemed like she was at her wits end with her husband. He sounds like a sexist, demeaning bigot and we’re not surprised she was seeking a marriage counselor, but her requirements for one that her husband would respect and listen to were crazy.
We can only imagine the issues they are facing at home and rather than seeking a marriage counselor, she should probably look for a divorce attorney instead. You can’t fix some people and this man seems way too set in his ways to have respect for his wife, let alone anyone else.
Not The Most Reassuring Comment
Being streetwise is really important these days. Women especially need to be extremely careful about where they go and the company they keep, so when getting into an Uber by themselves, it can be quite daunting to be alone with a male driver. This woman was clearly unsettled when her driver took two wrong turns, leaving her filled with fear.
When the driver could see her distress he checked if she was ok and insisted the traffic was the reason for his confusing directions. As this woman expressed why she was concerned he came back with a response that was quite hilarious, but also concerning because if he didn’t want his wife, wouldn’t that be more of a reason to worry?! Either way she made it out of the cab safe and sound.
Keeping It In The Family
There’s not many things that leave us speechless, but this one certainly did. What in the sweet home Alabama is going on here? If you thought the first part of this comment was shocking, it gets more and more unbelievable as you keep reading. This woman says she can’t believe her partner would sleep with her grandmother, but then goes on to say that the grandma is his ex-girlfriend. There are no words!
If this is the way this family expresses love to each other, they probably should never tell anyone about it because it’s actually disturbing. If she thought asking people to not give rude responses would work, she is seriously misguided. We’re sorry for her misfortune, but we can’t help but awkwardly laugh.
When You Choose Batman Over Your Baby
There are some things in life that only happen once, like the birth of your first child. When you welcome your bundle of joy, it feels like everything around you stops and they become your entire world in an instant. But it seems that not everyone believes that this moment is so important. Apparently seeing the new Batman movie is higher on the list of life-changing times. This expecting mom is incredibly calm because not many women would put up with this.
The fact he has led her to believe that she is being unreasonable for wanting him to miss the Batman movie on her due date to welcome their first child is truly astonishing. If you value superhero movies more than your baby, you’re probably not fit to be a father. Also, Bruce Wayne would have done anything to have more time with his dad, learn from that.
Sleep Is For The Weak, And Absent Dads
Everyone knows that once you become a parent you say goodbye to sleep. Giving your children the love, care, and attention they deserve is more important than getting a few hours extra per night, it’s just being a responsible parent. It seems this woman’s husband is too selfish to get out of bed for his child who has to stay in a dark room for hours, wide awake. The man doesn’t even work full-time so he has clearly gaslighted his wife into thinking she is asking too much.
It’s situations like these when instead of venting on Reddit, the CPS should probably be called in to deal with it. It’s extremely clear who is right and who is wrong in this situation and it’s sad to see that a woman who is doing everything she can for her child with less than 4 hours sleep is still having to ask for help from her partner.
The Real MVP Of Labor
This has got to be satire because there is no way that this man thinks he did the real work during labor. You’ve got to give it to him though, this man seems like a supportive, loving and caring husband who tended to his wife’s every need while she was giving birth. Mothers should be as comfortable as possible so it’s great that he noted she was, but complaining about his level of comfort, come on!
The husbands will always be second to their wives when in the birthing suites. This is a woman’s moment to shine, let her have all the attention, love, care, and comfort that she needs. At least he could make a joke out of it, though!
When You Won’t Admit Your Wrongdoings
Part of having a healthy and honest marriage is knowing when you’ve betrayed your partner and know when you have done wrong. This man seems to accept no responsibility not just in his emotional affair, but also in the fact that his wife was repeatedly disrespected by him. And here he is, blaming it on the other woman. When there is no accountability in any of it, it might be time to accept that you don’t care.
It would only be fair to save your wife from the turmoil for the rest of her life. There are so many red flags in this situation and this man believing that leaving his job will keep his family safe is totally wrong. Perhaps if he takes a good look at himself and starts to see the facts, he will understand where the problem truly lies.
When Your Politics Get Out Of Control
It’s not totally uncommon these days to have differing political views from your partner. You can disagree and respect each other’s opinions and values and have healthy debates with one another. However, when your politics are on completely different ends of the spectrum and you harbor resentment, the marriage probably won’t work. This husband using the term ‘disobeyed my direct orders’ tells you everything you need to know.
If voting for Joe Biden was the final straw in their marriage, chances are it was rather fragile to begin with. We’re thrilled for this wife that she was able to escape from this man’s ridiculous views and hope he finds what he’s looking for in Vietnam, because he certainly wouldn’t be happy that Biden won the election!
Not Always Her Butter Half
Everyone has different taste buds and eating habits, but there are some things that are just unacceptable. Taking a bite out of the butter in the refrigerator and putting it back should actually get you jail time in our opinion. Firstly, what kind of savage does this and secondly, does he not think that anyone else in the house may want to spread some butter like a normal human?
Perhaps he thought it was cheese initially because it’s quite a hefty chunk of butter to eat. We can’t help but wonder if his cholesterol is ok, and whether his wife will have to hide future butter purchases from her dairy-loving hubby.
When Jealousy Goes Too Far
For some couples, jealousy can be healthy and normal if it encourages them to appreciate and protect their relationship, while for others it can get out of control. This husband was dealing with some severe jealousy issues over their new pet rabbit. He couldn’t cope with the attention the rabbit was getting. He was becoming so insecure that he genuinely wondered if there was something more between them. Yes, we’re just as confused!
If this man is so jealous of their new pet rabbit, we can’t imagine what would happen if they had a child together, he would probably lose his mind. Perhaps ask your wife for more attention before coming up with ridiculous thoughts! His ego must be seriously damaged.
Is It Love Or Irritation?
Having a healthy dose of banter between couples is important. Knowing when you can laugh about things, and knowing when things are serious shows a mutual sign of respect and understanding. However, it seems this husband loved to get a little rise out of his wife from time to time. Despite saying he wants to keep her happy, he couldn’t help but admit that seeing her irritated keeps him entertained.
This guy should probably tread lightly with this one, there may come a time when the teasing becomes a little too much. Having said that, partners can drive each other mad sometimes, so keeping the humor in it is always helpful to lighten things up.
This Husband Woke Up And Chose Violence
There’s a few things you shouldn’t say to a woman, one of them being snide comments about her weight or working out. If there comes a time when a husband believes his wife is letting herself go, there’s a certain way to say things. Suggesting they workout together, going on walks, or preparing healthy meals for her are a good few ways to go about it. But this man telling his wife to get onto JLo’s workout routine, while he is eating uncrustables, is asking for trouble.
We’re not surprised she was fuming about it. How about he stops shoveling their kids’ food into his mouth before giving his wife workout tips? He probably bought himself a few nights sleeping on the couch for that one.
Break My Stuff, I’ll Break You
Husbands don’t seem to understand that some tools are not universal and there’s a reason why certain tools are kept in specific places. Take this kitchen knife for example. It looks like a great knife for chopping food, so we have no idea why this woman’s husband thought he should take it into the garden. Not only did he use her favorite knife, he also broke it! The sheer audacity of it!
We hope he took the initiative to head straight over to the store she bought it at to pick up another one because if you break it, you replace it. If he doesn’t want to replace her belongings, perhaps she should consider replacing him!
When Mommy’s Boy Goes Too Far
The first part of this post talking about her husband being a serious Mommy’s boy and sharing too much information with her is something that is not uncommon. But, things take a serious and disturbing turn when this wife describes the pictures that he has been sending to her. That is definitely not a normal mother – son relationship and we can’t help but wonder if he has saved another woman’s contact as his mother to cover up tracks?
If it is in fact his mother, this wife needs to run for the hills! It’s not just about betrayal and disrespecting her in the marriage, it’s also about the fact there is something very weird going on with his mother. It’s time to look for a divorce lawyer, not through his text messages!
When Gaming Is Your Life
Being present and attentive in the delivery room is really important for couples. Showing your partner that you are by their side and want to take in this moment together will closen your bond and make the process more enjoyable. There is plenty of waiting around and having things to pass the time is helpful. But it’s gotta be appropriate!
This husband creating a whole gaming setup next to his wife in labor is taking things too far. Sure, it’s fine to play a game or two while your wife is snoozing. However the headset to talk to other gamers and full keyboard-mous combo is just making us cringe. You’re having a child, it’s time to grow up, you can’t be a baby anymore!
