Yet another piece of garbage from a rat's a**s marriage. Leave and move on with your life, Lady. You're just his servant with some disgusting slave options. Yuch.

„I care more about work than my stepchildren“ yeah lol and he cares more about fun then his own children.

I knew this was going to make me angry, and I read it anyway, and I was right! I hope she leaves him, this guy is insane! He blatantly lied to her by saying he would cook dinner and then not doing it. On top of that he set unrealistic expectations that OP did not agree to. Then he goes and guilt-trips OP about not caring about the kids enough. I'm surprised he hasn't pulled other people into the argument to complete this textbook case of emotional abuse.

He needs a nanny, not a wife. Then again, he couldn't afford a nanny if he only works two days a week. I wonder how he'll afford a divorce from his breadwinner wife?

Pack your bags.

Major red flag on this one. Gtfo right now lady.

Re d flags flying here why having two exes it this not obvious history there do not.believe they left for financial reasons .get out now while you can you are nothing to this jerk but a glorified doormat and a meal ticket This is pure toxic Wake wake up lady

It doesn't take a genius to see that this guy is a classic narcissist. Two failed relationshps, manipulation, gaslighting (blaming you for the issue), and then the silent treatment as punishment because you didn't fall for his manipulations. Also, another reason he married you is because you are probably bringing in the main income for the family. He's lazy if he thinks he can get away with just two days a week while you are working your butt off every day. Please don't get pregnant with this man, and get out of this marriage because things are only going to get worse. If you've only been married 6 months, he hasn't even begun to devalue you yet.

I feel like he probably plans to impregnate you to trap you into staying and being his kids mummy. He also told you about both ex leaving due to financial reasons so that you will feel guilty in to staying. So at some point of you showing signs of leaving, he is going to emotionally blackmail you, saying that you are leaving for the same reasons as the others.

Okay, so he got pissed off because of her working hours - but he took it out on his kids by not feeding them as well as on OP by his behaviour. It's unclear if the engagement party was a last-minute arrangement by the engaged couple, or if he failed to mention it earlier. (Had OP not been working, and been available to attend as he seems he'd wanted, they would've needed to arrange a babysitter and probably to sort dinner before they went out to ensure the meal met his standards anyway.) He promised to do the kids' food, failed to, then told the kids to go to their stepmom at a particular time to request dinner? He is a jerk. OP gave him the choice of make it himself or takeaway - by his actions he chose takeaway.

Is there still time for an annulment? Dump his posterior.

By 7, I was more than capable of making myself a sandwich or a bowl of cereal. But this isn't on the kids ability to feed themselves specifically. It sounded like the dad had an axe to grind, and told the kids to expect her to make dinner. The dad sucks, and he's emotionally manipulative. He's trying to wear her down into being some subservient little slave girl. Get out while you still can.

Ladies..when a man has a lot of kids by different women and allows you to be the breadwinner while he hangs out. and expects YOU to do the job his baby's mommas should be doing...THAT IS NOT A COMPLIMENT. Congrats: the con was to find a useful idiot and YOU are the mark. YOUR NARCISSIST'S hubby's next stop will be to bring you more kids by his side chick..which he will say is your fault he has any cuz you spent too much time working and being a mommy for his brats abd you neglected romance and him. Silly wabbit. Tricks are fir kids..and suckers.

Get out. This manchild has one priority and that is himself. He doesn't care or respect you enough to make preparations for his kids so HE can go socialise. He doesn't care or respect the kids enough to make preparations to ensure they are secure and looked after while HE goes out to his mates bash. He works 2 days a week while you knock your pan in earning cash to support his sorry behind and you're still expected to wipe the tiny butts of his children when he can't be bothered. Think it's bad now? Wait 5years. You're going to be another of his exes. Advice-keep taking your contraception or some other poor woman may find herself in the same position as you looking after his children while you have no contact. This guy might have been the bee's knees on the face of it but you picked a lemon. Send him back.

Is happening more and more, men that have nothing to offer expect the women to do everything for them. I am not a materialistic person whatsoever but if i have to work for everything i got than why would i need a man in my life. Apparently all they have to offer a woman is s..x and that is not reason enough to getting married and tied up to a loser. That is crazy!!!!!

As a family and divorce mediator I disagree with the husband's stance on things. Hanging out with friends is NOT a priority especially when you have kids to take care of and your spouse works to provide her share of the income. Preparing a home cooked meal takes a lot of energy and time. And for the husband to underhandedly demand that the kids eat something she has cooked from home and is pissy pants over her ordering take out is a sign of him looking for situations to argue about. It's very manipulative to also give the wife the silent treatment. Who does this anymore? Definitely not mature adults. You talk about things even when it is difficult to talk about. I'd say divorce would be a good option for the wife since there aren't any mutual children at the moment. You can't raise a man.

When I read articles like this, I think about my parents and their marriage. They have been married for forty three years and have been there for each other no matter what. They have shared the work of raising children, keeping a house in order, and making sure that said children are fed and well taken care of. My dad would not have even thought twice of doing something like this to my mother. He would have made us a meal or not have had a problem with her ordering take out. This guy is a jerk and she needs to get away from him.

He said she needs to get her priorities straight? When is the divorce? He's gaslighting her. Why, oh why, do people put up with these adult children? Okay, I was young and dumb once too, but there's no way I would put up with this now. Being alone and happy is much better than with someone and miserable.

Honey, that "thing" must be dipped in gold for you to be putting up with his controlling behaviors. Only 6 months into the marriage and he's treating you like this. Those are HIS kids that HE left hungry. He blames you for ordering take out instead of cooking HIS kids a meal when HE should have cooked before he left. WORKING FROM HOME IS WORKING!!! Since he only works part time, I'm sure that you pay most of the bills. I have these sentences of advice for you. 1. Do not get pregnant. Don't be baby mama Number three. 2. You need to get a divorce. That man does not want a wife. He wants a maid for himself and his kids. There is a man out there who will love you, respect you and treat you like the queen that you are. HE IS NOT THAT MAN!!! MOVE ON!

How did she even mange to marry this turd? There's more red flags than Chinese new year. Why would you even marry a man who can't be bothered to work enough to take care of his children. Run don't walk out of that relationship

If he had any more Red Flags he would be a float at a May Day parade in the U.S.S.R.

This person sounds like she needs a child free relationship, currently she has 3 of them.

She is working Also Takeout Counts as A Meal. The Husband Needs A Really Check Get Over it And Whining like a little girl just saying.

DTMFA, and DO NOT have a child with this man. Get out now.

why are people on the aita threads too dense to leave the deadweights? im not talking about the people who are scared or trapped in the relationships without money or a support system, im on about the ones like this

Why do so many women marry these demanding man-children?? I see so many posts on here? Before I am tied to such a guy, I'd much rather live alone (and have most of my adult life) that way, at least, I only have myself to care for and not another adult.

QUESTION: If he is only working 2 days a week, WHO is paying the rent and all the other bills? Or is he being paid child support payments by the other 2 women? Or are you paying for everything (like a fool)?

I'm more alarmed you're still on the clock at 7pm

You might still be in the time constraints of getting an annulment. Run from this child of a man.

100% made up. Did not happen.

My question is, why and how did you marry someone with children who have "uninvolved" mothers not knowing that it means you'd have to take on a motherly role? Your snide "God forbid" comment about caring more about work than the kids shows that you are not prepared for this role, so why marry someone with basically motherless children? Package deal?!?! That being said, I don't necessarily think you're the A-hole in this. I think your husband's behavior also indicates red flags. But so does yours. You are not right for each other and those kids deserve a step MOTHER, not just a woman who married their father. ESH

I get the feeling that he has the definitions between 'wife' and 'housewife' mixed up. Someone agreeing to the first is not synonymous with someone agreeing to the second.

Is six months too late for an annulment? He should get absolutely no benefit from this sham marriage. He should not have the ability to get one penny from her.
