Topic: Maybe its the hormones..... Posted: 15 May 2006 at 11:28am |
or maybe it's coz I'm not well but I'm just about ready to pack up & leave Spencer
I've really had it! Yesterday was Mother's Day, ok wasn't expecting anything special but was kind of expecting to have him home for the day since I've been coming down with the flu for the last few days but yesterday I was crook as a dog, hardly able to lift my head off the pillow by midday. And what did my man do? He went motor-x riding & left me to it. And my little man had the sniffles too so it was NOT a pleasant day. AND I find out today that he pinched $30 out of my account without a word to me so he could go riding.
Money that I'm saving for when Bubs arrives in the next 2 weeks or so.
He had to go to Auckland today to drop off a friend and "since he is up there" he has taken his motorbike & going riding again! And he couldn't understand why I called him selfish this morning! So am I being too harsh or hormonal or what???????

Oh Toni....Hormones yes!!! but I would feel exactly the same way as you do now. I felt like that on Sat actually. I cant even blame hormones any more. Hubby spend the whole day helping his mate...blah blah..long story.
I do think however that you need to have a long, serious chat with him. Tell him exactly how you feel and tell him exactly what you expect of him. Then if he is still selfish enough then consider leaving him but till then see if he changes once you have a chat.
Big  ...hope it does not come to that hun (leaving him I mean)

Ug, Toni! I think (not having been there yet myself) that maybe having hormones up the woop doesn't help your ability to cope, but I think that it was extremely bad form for him to leave you to it, sick, heavily preggers, with an ill little one as well. I think you need to have a chat to him in a few days, when you feel a bit stronger yourself, and make sure he understands why you were unhappy. Sort of like ...dealing with a kid!!  A relationship is a partnership and being in a partnership does mean sacrifices, and your (I'm sorry - I have no idea!!) partner/husband has let that slide on this occasion

Oh Toni I sooo understand  Bloody cars/motorbikes etc... I used to get so sick of being left at home all the time, so now I'm playing 2 sports this winter so Daniel has to stay home and look after Hannah! I think now he is realising why I was so upset about it...
Hormones prob making it worse but that is not good... You've already talked to him about this before aye? Sounds like he needs another 'chat' with you spelling out why your upset etc and most importantly what you expect of him once the new bub is here. Better to have it out in the open now than be stewing in a few weeks...
Hope things get better for you soon

hi toni, maybe its my hormones too but i'd be really pissed as well!! i agree with ginger, maybe give yourself a couple of days to recover and gain a little perspective, then talk to him about it. i find that is the easiest way to deal with things while i'm pregnant, since i don't often know whether my hormones are blowing things out of proportion.
in the meantime, take care of yourself and your bump. i hope you're feeling better soon!

Hi all. Well I made a call to my mum and she is on her way to pick me up. I spoke to Spencer on the phone when I finally got ahold of him and he was abit upset but I pointed out to him that things just aren't working and a few days apart might help.
I'm still upset & I've managed to hurt myself somehow. I've got a really sharp pain coming & going on the left side of my lower abdomen so my mum is taking me in to see the midwife for abit of monitoring.
This is definitely not the first time this has happened but this IS the first time I've decided to have a break apart. I don't know if it will be permanent or what will happen but I'm a real emotional wreck at the moment. I spent most of today bawling my eyes out & inbetween times I've been packing which then sets me off again  So if you don't hear from me for a little while its because I haven't made it to a computer.
Thanks Ladies

Oh Toni.....How horrible. I sure hope that your man comes around and gets his priorities sorted.
You are a brave girl tho...cause so many times I said "thats it"...I never actually left. I sure hope however that you have him around when bub is born and can be a family.
 to you. We will be thinking of you and please let us know when you have your bub.
Take care hun.....good luck!!!

Good luck, and we're all thinking of you! Update us when you can, chick. Taking care of you, Alex and Baby is the most important thing... hopefully this break will make Spencer realise just what a good thing he's got in you and what a jerk he's being to you.

Thanks Roksana.
Its pretty tough, I've done the threatening before too but I never make it out the door. So its very scary for me.
I'm hoping its only a temporary thing though

Toni, my opinion is it isn't just hormones, he is being a little selfish here.. (well, maybe alot). Some time out with your mum is probably a great idea. I hope things work out for you, chick. All the best for the big day, happy babydust and good labour vibes, and most importanatly TAKE CARE OF YOURSELF!!!

I am sure it will be temporary Toni (well I will pray that it is). As you said that he sounded upset on the phone....so may be his drive back home will give him some time to think.....Hang in there!!!
We are here when you need us!!!

Well Toni. just to add my two cents, it sounds as though he's a boy who deosn't want to grow up (much like mine!). I hope he can reassess what's important! And GOOD FOR YOU for not putting up with sh*t!

Oh I hope it all works out! I hope he grows up and sorts out these issues and can see its not worth losing a realtionship and two very special little ones
! Men can be such brats sometimes.Ive got one that is causing grief at the moment of the financial kind - well amongst a few other incidentals so I know where you are coming from!
Reading all this has made me very sad for you.
Big hugs..take care...XX

I think you are very very strong for leaving and not letting him treat you like that. I hope the break helps and its only temporary. Keep us informed when you can.

Toni, I think you are so brave and strong for leaving! I'm sure that once he sees you are serious he will change. A bit of a short sharp shock, and he'll realise how unfair he has acted.
Good luck!

Hi Ladies. Just a quick update...
I'm staying at my mum's and I had a nice relaxing night last night, with my family whisking Alex off so I could have a big chat with my mum. I'm staying until saturday.... Spencer is still planning on going riding but then we are going to meet up & have a talk & go to dinner with his dad (its his birthday) at Valentines. Then take it from there. I will either be going home with him or staying with my mum if things don't get sorted out.
I haven't heard much from Spencer, I think he might be a little upset. I got a text message saying his missed his kiss & cuddle from Alex when he went to bed & he said he missed me but that was about it.
