Does it matter? 29 January, 2007

On returning home from a wonderful Sunday afternoon (into the evening) visiting family, mommy puts the children to bed and daddy says a bedtime prayer with them. Thereafter mommy continues to prepare for Monday morning and daddy changes into comfortable clothes, gets into his car and leaves … without saying a word. On his return three and a half hours later mommy enquires about his whereabouts. Daddy’s response … “does it matter?” And as a result the following events follow:-
- No morning coffee
- No freshly ironed shirt for work
- No lunch packed
- No goodbye kiss
Does it matter???
URGH yes it matters!!! I’m also a tad bit upset with my husband..no talking to him…no kiss…no food. nothing. I hope he makes up for it soon
Yes - it does matter. Praying for you.
Yikes. Sounds like daddy is looking for a fight. Hope you can work it out.
When I got married someone gave me a word of advice that both my husband and I do our best to live by.
” Never do anything that you would not want the other to do to you”
Pretty much the same as the Golden rule.
It does matter… it hurts and it’s frustrating and disrespectful.
Thinking of you.
wow, sorry, Addie, hope things get worked out.
Yikes. Yes it matters.
**hugs**
Hope you two are working things out.
I guess so, from a mans perspective, the only time i would say that is when im up to mischief. Someone taught me that you can respect your partner in all aspects but we are but mere mortals and we all succumb the the wiles of the devil whether its a little or a lot. So perhaps its not the right treatment to cancel all the activities, actually no that is not right at all. The right thing to do is to find out firstly why it does not matter and then ofcoarse where hubby decided to go to for 3 hours. Every man needs to relax somehow….
Maybe I should clarify something … I didn’t want to go into details, but maybe I should. What does matter to me is that:-
1. When I come from the doctor explaining what the diagnosis was, please don’t crit me. Understand that I understood what the doctor told me.
2. If I have planned my day accordingly and everything else flops because the doctor’s room was busy, understand if I stress about it … I had alot of things planned.
3. If you promised to babysit so I can go to a baby shower, understand when I get upset because you changed your mind.
4. If I freak out because my gate motor was about to damage someone’s car, understand why, because you never told me that the sensors are not fixed.
I was not a pleasant person to be around all weekend. And yes you had all the reason to “go for a drive” but isn’t it your responsibility to just say something so I know where you are and I know what to tell the children when they ask. Irrespective of how we feel, we have a duty toward each other!!!!
Hope it makes sense … CASE CLOSED!!!
